Hello, I have installed Own Cloud and it is throwing an alert that says open_basedir is blocking "/dev/urandom" so I need to enable it manually. I am running Litespeed Enterprise if that makes a difference. I have been searching for a while and this is the closest I have found: php-set = open_basedir=/tmp/:/usr/share/webapps/nextcloud:/etc/webapps/nextcloud:/dev/urandom (Source: Nextcloud - ArchWiki) Questions: 1. Is it safe to add a line like this on the account's php.ini? 2. If it is, which paths should I include? 3. Any other advise? I am way out of my depth on this one. :-/

  Here's another comment someone else made, in a forum: I found that the following string worked: {WEBSPACEROOT}{/}{:}{TMP}{/}:/dev/urandom

  Hi, I've searched for this as well, but have not found much documentation on it. Did you find the above solution to work? Thanks,
