[SOLVED] How to add to path

[ryy705]

Hello,

 

I want to add /home/ryy705/Sites/mysite/include to my webroot so I can access home/ryy705/Sites/mysite/include/file.php  with a simple include('file.php');

 

I am trying to do this by placing a .httaccess file with the following content in the webroot.

php_value include_path ".:/home/ryy705/Sites/mysite/include"

 

But when call include/file.php from mysite/  I get following err message:

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'file.php' (include_path='.:/home/ryy705/Sites/mysite/include')

 

What am I doing wrong?  I thank you in advance.

Your include path should be

 

.:/home/ryy705/Sites/mysite/include/

 

and when you're calling an include you should use

 

include_once "file.php";
