only modify php.ini and restart the server (apache, not the computer), run as root: /etc/init.d/httpd restart pippo@bellnet.ca wrote:

I want to thank all those who made suggestions. All were helpful. Question: As my server is on LAN only, I could turn on the register_globals for debugging purposes etc. But, is the only way to turn register_globals on to uninstall and then reinstall mod_php4 with a modified php.ini file? Or is there another temporary solution until I can modify all my php files? PJ At 08:39 PM 1/9/2003 -0500, you wrote:

I absolutely cannot understand the include_path directive. Can somebody, please, explain this? I have a situation that I find absolutely incomprehensible: I moved my experimental web-site from FreeBSD 4.5 running php4 v. 4.0 (or

something),

apache 1.13 where thesite worked just fine to another box with

FreeBSD 4.7

running php4 v. 4.2.3, apache 1.13.27_1. All of a sudden, I get the message: Warning: Failed opening '/../lib/somefile.conf' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in

/usr/local/www/html/index.php on

line 6 I can find nothing in the httpd.conf files that could account for

this;

there is no configuration in them for include_path. Obviously, the php file is being parsed correctly, but there is a

problem

with the line : include "$DOCUMENT_ROOT/../lib/somefile.conf". It works on one machine, but not on the latest version of php4 an

apache.

I see there are others on the net who have had this problem, but I

have not

yet found an explanation or a cure. HEEEEELP.... please, PJ
