#21038 [Opn->Fbk]: require & require_once probs

ID: 21038 Updated by: rasmus@php.net Reported By: hbaes@chiemgaudata.de -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: *General Issues Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.3.0RC3 New Comment: Well, the difference between include and require is that require will throw a fatal when it can't find the file and include will just give you a warning. So, it sounds to me like your new install simply can't find the file in both cases and you are only seeing the fatal error message. Perhaps your include_path is set differently in this new install? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-16 01:19:27] hbaes@chiemgaudata.de since the update from 4.2.3 to 4.3.0RC3 I´ve found several scripts (i.e the pdflib-test-scripts) which have probs with require() and require_once() ! If I have a "master" include file with the following content: // Include the classes if ( !defined( "INC" ) ) { /** * Include the main object * */ require_once( "main.inc" ); /** * Include the page object * */ require_once( "page.inc" ); ... (main.inc and page.inc are in the same dir as the "master" include (/include) ..) I get following error when I run my script: Fatal error: main() [function.main]: Failed opening required 'main.inc' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php:/home/www/web2/html/pdf/pc4p/include') in /home/www/web2/html/pdf/pc4p/include/init.inc on line 36 if i change the require_once to include_once then everything works fine .... best regards Harald ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21038&edit=1
