Hi I am getting this error from the drupal site admin > settings page for www.rainbowplanet.com.au
* warning: mkdir() [function.mkdir]: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 33340 is not allowed to access /tmp owned by uid 0 in /home2/gavanbr/public_html/rainbowplanet/includes/file.inc on line 91.
* The directory /tmp does not exist.
What does this mean, how am I supposed to fix it?
I am a newbie and unsure what to do.
Can anybody help, it would be greatly appreaciated.
Regards
Gavan Bright
