Re: Error accessing class

Hi Tyler, Thank you, I checked the permissions and the ownership, all ok, but by inserting the absolute path in the page, the code is running and get the expected output from the script. I realized that I made the same mistake in the php.ini file, I updated the include_path statement to include_path = ".:/var/www/htmls/php/includes" and now can simply reference the class file without the path and it is working fine. One question, what is the significance of the colon (:) in the include_path directive? Thanks, Andrew tyler@captainjack.com wrote:

Hi Andrew, This error indicates that your path to class.Htpasswd.php3 is wrong. use this: include("path/to/class.Htpasswd.php3"); Right now, it's set to look in the php/includes dir. If the file is actually in there, then apache might not have perms to read the file (IE: it's owned by root). Good luck, Tyler Longren Captain Jack Communications www.captainjack.com tyler@captainjack.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrew Schoenherr" <bhelisN6@netscape.net> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Saturday, April 13, 2002 12:54 AM Subject: [PHP] Error accessing class

Hello, PHP Version: 4.1.0, Apache Version: 1.3.12, Server: Linux 7.0 Class name: class.Htpasswd.php3 Thanks to Jason Wong for pointers on posting to the list, the parse error was a simple omission of a quotation mark on my part. This is the error I am getting... Warning: Failed opening 'class.Htpasswd.php3' for inclusion (include_path='.:/php/includes') in /var/www/html/php/dev/valid_user.php on line 9 Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: htpasswd in /var/www/html/php/dev/valid_user.php on line 10 7 <body> 8 <?php 9 include("class.Htpasswd.php3"); 10 $aHTPasswd = new Htpasswd("/var/www/html/private/.htpassd"); 11 if (!$aHTPasswd->EXISTS) 12 {

14 } 15 else 16 {

17    if ( $aHTPasswd->verifyUser( "phpbook", "phpbook" ) )
