Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-24 19:27:32] nick@itomic.com yep, will do that, but im using other files in the same directory. also what is the function to get/set config options in php via the script? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-24 12:36:08] iliaa@php.net Looks like the include is failing, but the error is not being shown, could you increase your error level to display E_WARNING or change include_once to require_once. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-24 05:53:35] nick@itomic.com the only difference is in index.php: <? include_once "it_db.php"; $a = it_getnextid("table", "trjh"); ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-24 05:51:57] nick@itomic.com to see the above on my live server, goto http://www.blackisha.com/cms_phpbug_central/index.php to see the result if it_db.php is included within the same directory, goto http://www.blackisha.com/cms_phpbug/index.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-24 05:46:06] nick@itomic.com ok, boiled it down to pretty simple code. The problem seemed to stem from the filename and position of it_db.php, which is in a default included directory .home/lib/it_functions/. In the following example, if it_db.php was included in the same directory, all was ok. if /home/lib/it_db.php was renamed to /home/lib/it_database.php (or any other name), the code works fine System: red hat 7.2 php 4.2.3 kernel 2.4.18pre3 apache: 1.3.27 php is an apache module file structure: /home/lib/it_functions/it_db.php (in central code repos): <?php // Get next available unique ID function it_GetNextID($table,$PrimaryKey) { echo "works OK <br />"; } // it_GetFieldNames - Get all field/column names of selected table and load into an array function it_GetFieldNames($table) { echo "works ok too <br />" } ?> blackisha.com/cms_phpdebug/index.php: <? include_once "it_functions/it_db.php"; $a = it_getnextid("table", "trjh"); ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
