Php open_basedir Tweak

I have a problem with the open_basedir tweak. When I enable it I get errors on all the accounts on the server except for my own account. With "my own account" I mean the account that you get if you only use the IP adres of the server. The problems are with accounts that have their own domain name and accounts that use the tilde methode.

I use WHM and cPanel and if I create a PHP-BB that is included in cPanel on my own acount then it works fine. If I create however the same forum on a test account that I created in WHM then it does not work.

This is the error I get:

Warning: Unknown(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/openskin/public_html/pHpBB/index.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/xxxxx/:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp) in Unknown on line 0

Warning: Unknown(/home/yyyyy/public_html/pHpBB/index.php): failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in Unknown on line 0

Warning: (null)(): Failed opening '/home/yyyyy/public_html/pHpBB/index.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in Unknown on line 0


note:
xxxxx = my own username
yyyyy = username of the account

What I also noticed is that, if I disable this open_basedir tweak for just my own account, then it effects all the other accounts. If I disable the security tweak for a single other account then it has no effect on that account.
