relative paths not recognized

[raj000]

i am using Abyss on a windows 2000 machine.

I have used an include funtion in a PHP script. When i open and run the php script it fails to include the file because it does not recognize the relative path.

Warning: main(/actions/buttons.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in d:\Program Files\Abyss Web Server\htdocs\stock\new_warehouse.php on line 42

However, when i enter the full and exact path i.e d:\Program Files\Abyss Web Server\ etc. for the include file, it recognizes it and runs fine.

Please help

It seems that your included file path begins with /. This isn't a relative path. A relative path never begins with /.

So instead of

Remove the / before albums...

[jasjmorris]

that wasn't it either effidently I had to put C:/Program Files/..... on to directory

so now i know for futher reference.. Thanks for the help :)

I tried to remove / , but it still doesn't work.

Actually , i was using these scripts on a Windows 98 system and they seemed to be working fine. Now i have upgraded to 2000 .

There is little reason for these scripts to work in Windows 98 and not in 2000, unless there is some settings issue as i have re-installed Abyss.

Thanks

raj000,

It has nothing to do with Abyss. But the include_path setting in php.ini may be in cause.

if your using windows you dont put d: and instead of \ put /
so it should look like this
/Program Files/Abyss Web Server/etc/etc
