shlumph Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 You're using an absolute path in the first example, but a relative path in the second example. And the relative path isn't correct...

taquitosensei Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 It looks like you're running your file in htdocs and need to drop the "../" from the relative path.

shlumph Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 http://www.php.net/realpath realpath() returns FALSE on failure, e.g. if the file does not exist.
