Try the following: - phpinfo() and check what it says for include path. Just to make sure that your php.ini got read correctly (and you're editing the correct php.ini - check all the permissions in the include_path directorys and files. - Put another php file in that include directory eg. test_include.php, make sure it's readable for the user that runs the webserver, and include test_include.php in another file in another directory. The test_include.php can just contains very simple thing like: echo "This is a file in include_path directory"; just to make sure that you can read the included file. If all the above works, then make sure you spell the function name correctly (??). Just a shot in the dark. Hope that helps.
