Server Move

[edit: Herko and other members have already explained in very detail in another thread, so please don't double-post.]

I tried following these instructions but I got these errors:
==================================================
Warning: Unknown(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/eindia/public_html/index.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/httpwebs/:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp) in Unknown on line 0

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

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

==================================================

The db name, username, password, are all the same as the old server.

I was able to import the db dump file without any problems.. For the Virtual Path I put the temporary addresshttp://67.43.0.142/~eindia.

Should I change this to the actual domain name? and wait 2-3 days until it propagates to the new dns servers?

Thanks.

Did you ever resolve this issue?
I recently change hosting, and used a temp address for my xoops...and wondering where I would change this address to real domain name.

Please respond, would really appreciate it!

mainfile.php

It worked sort of.. Sometimes I see something an extra slash like www.mydomain.com/modules//newbb. How do I fix this?, and not just for this particular module, but also some other areas.

I could start over.. my XOOPS website wasn't all that big, but it will still be a pain in the a$$.
