#19510 [Com]: $_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT] UNAVAILABLE

ID: 19510 Comment by: alan@akbkhome.com Reported By: kkobashi@thegrid.net Status: Open Bug Type: IIS related Operating System: Win NT 4.0 Server PHP Version: 4.2.2 New Comment: looks like a bug, - but as an aside, you could consider.. #nicest - or add it to php.ini ini_set('include_path', 'standard/install/location'); #which enables all includes to look include 'Database/TableClass.php'; #klunky, but effective include dirname(__FILE__).'/../../somefile.php'); Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-19 20:03:54] kkobashi@thegrid.net Typo... build is 1381 NT 4.0 Server ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-19 20:01:07] kkobashi@thegrid.net Major problem making PHP4 useless in a large development portal/enterprise scenario!!! PHP 4.2.2 Windows NT 4.0 Server Build 1382 IIS 4.0 Calling $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] results in an unknown index The ramifications of this bug is serious enough to cripple my entire development as I will not be able to include() or require() files across many directories. My development is in Windows, however my hosts are in Unix/Linux. I simply cannot use ini_get('doc_root') as a solution because then I have to switch the entire code to $_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT] before uploading to the servers. I can't believe noone else posted this bug anywhere - because it is on a plain Windows NT server system! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19510&edit=1
