Re: possible of the php engine corrupt?

Thanks reply first... but most wired is from the php.net doc, "require" should only use *relative path* and should not use "absolute path" (ie. 'http://www.mysite.com/include.inc") , is it true? When i run nslookup, the respond is good and no unexpected delay, that's why i suspect how the php3 lookup the include file process.. rgds.. ..yat BTW, there is no mechicism to check the process of the php since it is part of httpd , <php3@developersdesk.com> wrote in message news:8iq92s$isb$1@toye.php.net...

If you are getting a file that is on your local server, either put it in a directory that is in your include_path, in the same directory as the script that is running, or in a location that is fully qualified. Look in the Configuration section of the PHP manual for info on include_path. Using the http://www.mysite.com/ notation reqires php to ask your web server to send the file to you over the network, if you use a filesystem path it can open the file itself. > > What factor can affect the process time of the php engine.. or what > is the artictechure of the php/apache.. reinstall apache/php will > help? One common long delay is DNS failures. It usually costs 30 seconds for each DNS server configured in your resolv.conf that cannot find an address. That is usually the first thing I look at when I see l o n g delays. (nslookup) But in this case, the first thing to do is get rid of the html transaction in your require.
