Re: require/include from a different directory

The call to include() must be relative to one of the directories listed in open_basedir, regardless of which file the call is made from. Usually the dir mentioned in open_basedir is the docroot, so in your case require "include/inc_file.php"; should work from any file, in any folder. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Greg Macek" <it-guy@mrichi.com> Newsgroups: php.general To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Saturday, March 29, 2003 3:37 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] require/include from a different directory > It seems I have found my problem.
