[SOLVED] $path = $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]."/layout/"; //// Server path to layou

[Riseykins]

$path = $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]."/layout/"; //// Server path to layout folder

 

If someone could explain how I find out what my DOCUMENT_ROOT is, then I'd be so happy!

 

Thanks!

[jonsjava]

a cheapskate way would be to do this:

<?php
print shell_exec("pwd");
?>

Not the PHP way, but it's short, and to the point.

[DarkWater]

Why don't you just echo out $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']?

[Riseykins]

How do I echo that out?

 

*pokes siggy*

[DarkWater]

Uhh..

<?php
echo $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];
?>

 

Learn PHP before trying to code PHP.

[Riseykins]

I'm just trying to get a script I bought to work. It didn't come with installation instructions.

 

I'm sorta trying to learn as I try to code. Same way I learned HTML and CSS. xD

[DarkWater]

Go buy a PHP book or read up on starter tutorials (like on W3Schools and stuff) before you try to code in PHP, trust me. =P

 

EDIT: Also, just contact the guy you bought it from.  He should be able to get you started.

[Riseykins]

Thanks, BTW. I did get it right in the first place, but I thought I didn't because the script STILL won't work. Ugh, what a piece of shit!

 

Now, I get this:

 

Warning: file(/layout/data/layoutlist.txt) [function.file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/fabu/public_html/config.php on line 51

 

O.o I'm pretty angry right now, actually. Thanks for the help, guys!

[jonsjava]

just a hunch, but try this:

$path="layout/";

[darkfreaks]

server document root will not work on certain servers.

 

i suggest use something like

 

<?php

define('WEB_ROOT','path to root folder here');


$path= WEB_ROOT . "/layout/"; ?>

 

 

 

[DarkWater]

I'd bet that he doesn't know what his web root is.

[darkfreaks]

i wouldn't doubt that LOL

[Riseykins]

No need to be cunts.

 

[jonsjava]

it's ok, man. Some people forget to be nice, but overall, we're here to help.  Do you know what a server root is? if not, I'll be more than happy to help you find out.

[DarkWater]

No need to be cunts.

 

 

I actually wasn't trying to be mean with that comment, I was being serious, because if you don't, darkfreak's comment is useless.  Chill out.

Don't know if any one noticed but the document root is in the error message!

 

Try

$path = "/home/fabu/public_html/layout/"; //// Server path to layout folder

[Riseykins]

Sorry, guys. I just thought that was kinda rude...I know I'm a n00b, here. But you don't have to deal with me if you don't want...

 

Anyhow, I don't really know how to change things without messing the whole file up...

[DarkWater]

@wildteen: Wow, good catch. o_O

 

@Riseykins: Try wildteen's code, and change <? to <?php whenever you see it.

[wildteen88]

DarkWater and jonsjava quit the snide comments. If you've got nothing useful/helpful to say don't reply.

 

I will lock this thread if any more snide comments arise.

 

@Riseykins watch the language too.

[jonsjava]

actually I didn't notice. GAAHH! I need to stop doig 5 things at once. Sry, should have seen that.

and in my defense. I wasn't being snide. I was trying to show him that we are helpful, and not to judge us by one comment.

I wasn't being snide at all... =/  If you really think that I meant to be derogatory with that remark, whatever, but I wasn't.

[darkfreaks]

i don't think i used any rude language? but i will watch the remarks. but yes we are here to be helpful.

 

 

i think my code is the most straight forward's or wild_teens

Sorry, guys.

Thanks so much. The creator of the script couldn't help to save his life. :s

Could you guys help me with this part of the script, too? This is from three different files...
