Failed opening required FAIL

[bestrong]

Hello everyone!

 

I am having some trouble including the pear mail.php file

 

my code is

 

error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', '1');
require_once "Mail.php";

...more code PHP PHP etc

 

This products the error message

Warning: require_once(Mail.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/vhosts/bluebeanstalk.com/httpdocs/admin/sendmail.php on line 7

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'Mail.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear/') in /var/www/vhosts/bluebeanstalk.com/httpdocs/admin/sendmail.php on line 7

 

The include path is correct (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear/) and there are the Mail.php, PEAR.php, etc in that folder.

 

I have already tried removing the trailing slash on include_path='.:/usr/share/pear/, and that did nothing different.

 

Thanks so much,

 

Ben

Based on the path separator : being used, you are likely on an operating system that is case sensitive. Is your file name Mail.php or is it mail.php?

Thanks for the reply!

 

Yes, I am using CentOS 5, which is case sensitive, however, the file is Mail.php...so that is not the issue.

 

could there possibly be some sort of protection deal? The folder is set to read for all users...so I don't know

 

Thanks

I tried copying the pear.php and Mail.php to a folder under htdocs (the actual website folder) ... I was able to include the mail.php file, but it generated other errors...

 

I would prefer to include the proper location, but I still cant get it to work!!

OK...I tried this:

 

require "/usr/share/pear/Mail.php";

 

and that produced

 

Warning: require() [function.require]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/usr/share/pear/Mail.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/vhosts/bluebeanstalk.com/httpdocs:/tmp) in /var/www/vhosts/bluebeanstalk.com/httpdocs/admin/sendmail.php on line 7

 

 

Does that shed any light on the situation?
