The error sounds as if $base contains an invalid value. You could add  
a "var_dump($base);" in the code to display the value.

Both log entries you mentioned are just warnings though. The code  
won't stop on a warning. And the code of the web admin is not exactly  
clean when it comes to notices and warnings. Quite the contrary. So  
what you see might not be a real problem.

But I did not quite understand what kind of problems you saw in the  
actual frontend. Did you see any specific errors that were displayed?  
Or did the web admin just show you a blank page (the PHP white screen  
of death)?

Cheers,

Gunnar
