My nuke is not installed in the root folder, i.e. httpdocs/nuke
It is instead one folder down, i.e. httpdocs/root_folder/nuke
All the basics work but not the forum
I cant get the admin forum to work
I get an Apache server error about being outside the basedir
Apache doesnt know anybetter so it gives that error
I am not outside the basedir, but nuke is not installed in the root, see.
My answer probably lays in writing an .htaccess file to redirect or include necessary files/folders
If anyone can help or advise or even post an example of the code I would be very grateful. I can then use my new found knowledge to help others in similar need.

Open the mainfile.php and find this line:

if ($forum_admin == 1) {
    require_once("../../../config.php");
    require_once("../../../db/db.php");
} elseif ($inside_mod == 1) {
    require_once("../../config.php");
    require_once("../../db/db.php");
} else {
    require_once("config.php");
    require_once("db/db.php");
    /* FOLLOWING TWO LINES ARE DEPRECATED BUT ARE HERE FOR OLD MODULES COMPATIBILITY */
    /* PLEASE START USING THE NEW SQL ABSTRACTION LAYER. SEE MODULES DOC FOR DETAILS */
    require_once("includes/sql_layer.php");
    $dbi = sql_connect($dbhost, $dbuname, $dbpass, $dbname);
}


And change it too:

if ($forum_admin == 1) {
    require_once("../../../../config.php");
    require_once("../../../../db/db.php");
} elseif ($inside_mod == 1) {
    require_once("../../config.php");
    require_once("../../db/db.php");
} else {
    require_once("config.php");
    require_once("db/db.php");
    /* FOLLOWING TWO LINES ARE DEPRECATED BUT ARE HERE FOR OLD MODULES COMPATIBILITY */
    /* PLEASE START USING THE NEW SQL ABSTRACTION LAYER. SEE MODULES DOC FOR DETAILS */
    require_once("includes/sql_layer.php");
    $dbi = sql_connect($dbhost, $dbuname, $dbpass, $dbname);
}


Make a backup and let me know how it goes.
