I'm trying to write here again (maybe previous thread is down?). You
said before this bug in NOT actual in 4.2.3, but code STILL DOES NOT
work in 4.2.3.

So, PHP v4.2.0 (and later) on Windows:
include "/home/some/site.php";
- DOES NOT work (try to believe)! We have to use instead:
include "z:/home/some/site.php"; # bad... Bad?.. BAD!!!

Previous PHP v4.1.0:
include "/home/some/site.php";
- works correct.

I think that since 4.2.0 pathes like "/some/where" does not treated as
absolute. For example, if we add "z:" to "include_path", include
"/home/some/site.php" become workable - it is only the prove.

It is VERY loathsome bug, because it makes Windows scripts incompatible
with Unix and with previous PHP versions.

Again, new version (4.2.3) has THE SAME bug:

Z:\!distrib\php-4.2.3-Win32>php.exe
<?
include "/test.php";
?>
^Z

Warning: Failed opening '/test.php' for inclusion
(include_path='.;c:\php4\pear') in - on line 2

If I use "include 'z:/test.php'", it works. 
Please help (our clients are very angry!)

P.S.
DocumentRoot "/home/site/www"
...
GET http://site/test.php - DOES NOT work too. It seems to me
mod_php
uses the same "include" function while starting the script.
