You're not really giving a lot of information here, but you might want to look into the php logs and see if there are errors about the open_basedir directive.

If this is the case, you'll need to adjust this. You can do so temporarily in your ~/conf/web/apache2.conf. If you want the changes to be permanent, you can change the template file in
/usr/local/vesta/data/templates/web/
Or, probably better, create a new template from default.tpl, and then select it in the control panel.

In your apache2.conf (and in sapach2.conf also if using https)
edit this line php_admin_value open_basedir /home/<user> and in the end add : /home/<user>/web/MYFOLDER
