Re: newbie has include path error

Hi, If you can "surf" local host for standard HTML pages and other php pages (without includes in them) eg: http://localhost/file.html Then the problem isn't the server really, it seems to me that the server document root for your files should be something like: /usr/local/apache/ not /etc/httpd/php/prepend.php Can you ftp into your server? What's the path to your document root for all your html / php files? I doubt it's /etc/httpd/php/file.html, if it isn't this, then the problem is somewhere in your php cnfig to indicate where the document root is. Eh, it's kidna hard to explain... maybe someone else can explain it better :) Justin French Creative Director Indent.com.au Daniel Goldin wrote: > I had php/apache/mysql working perfectly for awhile on my redaht 7.1 box. > Compiled them all from source and was very proud, as I am at best an amateur > programmer.
