According to the message it's looking for:
/includes/ReloadScript.html
Note the leading slash, indicating it's looking from the root directory of the
server. Are you sure this is correct?
It worked previously (in php4 under Apache 1.3.x).
Does the actual require() statement have something prepended to the path,
perhaps a variable or constant, that due to your change in configuration is now
blank? Post line 14 of /usr/local/www/htdocs/main/AOLCompression.php (and any
previous line relevant to it, i.e. showing definitions of variables).
Yes. It had $DOCUMENT_ROOT prepended. That now appears to be blank;
I'm not sure why (I thought it was initialized to the document root from
the Apache configuration file). I changed this with php.ini, but it
still didn't work.
The original line looks like this in the script:
<?PHP require($DOCUMENT_ROOT."/includes/ReloadScript.html"); ?>
On a related note; are you sure you want to require() an html file? Wouldn't
readfile() be more appropriate?
I originally wanted to make sure the include was there. The idea was to
emulate a #include line in a PHP script (since PHP scripts cannot use
SSI).
However, as an experiment after looking around the Net, I changed it to
this:
<?PHP require($_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]."/includes/counter"); ?>
For some reason, this appears to work. I don't know why. The contents
of $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] should be the same as $DOCUMENT_ROOT,
right? Anyway, this is either a workaround or a fix (not sure which at
this point), because it eliminates the error. Did something change in
later versions of PHP4 or PHP5 (I was getting the same error with the
latest version of PHP4, so it wasn't just going to PHP5 that did it).
Also, when will the very latest version of PHP5 (5.0.3 or above) install
correctly? I'm still running 5.0.1 because that's apparently the last
version with a correct make install script (for FreeBSD UNIX).
