the fpdf library - error- please help

[mits]

hi,

 

i'm using the fpdf library to generate PDF's from form input. It all worked well on my local host, but now that i have transferred to a web server it displays the following error when trying to generate a PDF.

 

 

Warning: require(/fpdf16/fpdf.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/ddgq0o2n/public_html/quote_builder/pdf.php on line 2

 

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/fpdf16/fpdf.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/ddgq0o2n/public_html/quote_builder/pdf.php on line 2

 

 

i have searched for "include_path", but can't find it anywhere.

 

i'm thinking it's a server problem, where the library may not be compatible or something needs to be switched on, as it worked fine on my local host.

 

 

any help and suggestions welcome

 

 

thanks.

i suspect you need to either add a . or remove the / in front of your require()

 

require("fpdf16/fpdf.php");

hi, thanks for that....i added the full path to the file and i get the following error;

 

Warning: require() [function.require]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /var/www/sites/stage.demomedia.co.uk/html/quote_generator/pdf.php on line 2

 

Warning: require(http://www.demomedia.co.uk/quote_builder/fpdf16/fpdf.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /var/www/sites/stage.demomedia.co.uk/html/quote_generator/pdf.php on line 2

 

 

i think it's progress.

 

any ideas?

i used DOCUMENT_ROOT server variable within the require and it works fine.
