Getting error while uploading a Avatar file

It could be a problem with the restrictions on your hosting provider... not positive, but there's a chance... are you using a paid service or free service and what kind of blocks do they have? Because I used to use a free one, and I had a similar error because the provider would not allow users to upload files, only the site owner.

If you can't find the answer soon then I would suggest calling your hosting provider, I'm sure they can tell you if its a problem with your setup or if they have restrictions in effect. ;)
 
The actual problem is that the open_basedir function restricts him from uploading. this might happen with attachments as well.

What he could try is to activate Upload in Safe Mode in vBulletin Options, then specify a directory which is within the allowed path of the open_basedir. To check which directories are, have a look at your phpinfo.
