So this appears when I try and go on my index.php...

Warning: require_once(/TZ/v3/includes/db.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/*REMOVED*/public_html/TZ/v3/index.php on line 5


Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/TZ/v3/includes/db.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/*REMOVED*/public_html/TZ/v3/index.php on line 5

It's saying there's no file there but there is! 

Thanks

you are using an absolute path to "/TZ", but actually this directory is a part of "/home/*REMOVED*/public_html/". Use a relative or an absolute path like - "/home/*REMOVED*/public_html/TZ/v3/includes/db.php"

Thanks, that fixed it. But now when I goto the index.php it just shows a blank white screen with a bit of code in the top... ?

Add this on top of your index.php file to check for actual errors.

ini_set('display_startup_errors',1);

ini_set('display_errors',1);

error_reporting(-1);

Nothing comes up. If I put it above the <?php in just displays that in text. If I put it below it, it's just white screen. :(

This is the top of the index.php

<?php
        $page = 'Home';
	$pageIcon = 'home';
	ob_start();
	require_once('/home/*REMOVED*/public_html/TZ/v3/includes/db.php');
	require_once('/home/*REMOVED*/public_html/TZ/v3/includes/init.php');
	if(!($user->LoggedIn())){
		if(isset($_GET['referral'])){
			$_SESSION['referral'] = preg_replace("/[^A-Za-z0-9-]/","", $_GET['referral']);
			header('Location: register.php');
			die();
		}
		header('location: login.php');
		die();
	}
	if(!($user->notBanned($odb))){
		header('location: logout.php');
		die();
	}
	require_once('header.php');

Try the following and tell me if you get errors,

<?php
ini_set('display_startup_errors',1);

ini_set('display_errors',1);

error_reporting(-1);

session_start(); // added a session start

        $page = 'Home';
	$pageIcon = 'home';
	//ob_start();
	require_once('/home/*REMOVED*/public_html/TZ/v3/includes/db.php');
	require_once('/home/*REMOVED*/public_html/TZ/v3/includes/init.php');
	if(!($user->LoggedIn())){
		if(isset($_GET['referral'])){
			$_SESSION['referral'] = preg_replace("/[^A-Za-z0-9-]/","", $_GET['referral']);
			header('Location: register.php');
			die();
		}
		header('location: login.php');
		die();
	}
	if(!($user->notBanned($odb))){
		header('location: logout.php');
		die();
	}
	require_once('header.php');

Blank white screen still.

 

Why do you use

	require_once('/home/*REMOVED*/public_html/TZ/v3/includes/db.php');

Instead of

	require_once('TZ/v3/includes/db.php');

I assume your script is inside public_html. Would make your life easier...

Does your header file contain something?

I got an error before but now ive done that it works fine until I get the blank screen. Yes, the header does contain stuff.

 

@jazzman1 - Hmm, ill try and sign in one more time because that and register is the only thing that works :/ Edit: nope still doesnt work

Ok. I would try the following...

 

  • Add an echo to the first line and see if it prints. If it does, you just keep moving it down the script until it stops appearing.
  • I would also use error_reporting(E_ALL); - looks a bit cleaner in my opinion
  • You can also use the developer tools on your browser to check if the server is returning a 500 error

See if one of those gives you a hint what line is failing / which error you're actually having.

@Csharp, the relative path should be this:

require_once('./includes/db.php');

The index file is located in - /home/*REMOVED*/public_html/TZ/v3/index.php ( re-read the first posting )

when using a session / cookies, just delete the cookies if you have them or restart the browser page in case you're using sessions or unset them with php script.

Done it, doesn't work :(

we need to know what output you're expecting to get of the script above. Also are you still using output buffering set it up with ob_start() ?

 

That wasn't the whole script there's a load more but I just showed you part of it. Just to say I am a newb to PHP coding, so I don't get most of the things you say unfortunately :/

You have to show us the whole script, but speaking on this part, could you run only this part and tell me what result you get. I want to check the login session.

<?php

ini_set('display_startup_errors', 1);

ini_set('display_errors', 1);

error_reporting(-1);

session_start(); // added a session start

$page = 'Home';

$pageIcon = 'home';

require_once('/home/*REMOVED*/public_html/TZ/v3/includes/db.php');
require_once('/home/*REMOVED*/public_html/TZ/v3/includes/init.php');
if (!($user->LoggedIn())) {
    if (isset($_GET['referral'])) {
        $_SESSION['referral'] = preg_replace("/[^A-Za-z0-9-]/", "", $_GET['referral']);
        header('Location: register.php');
        die();
    }
    header('location: login.php');
    die();
} else {
   echo "The user is login";  
}
if (!($user->notBanned($odb))) {
    header('location: logout.php');
    die();
}
require_once('header.php');

If the user is login you should get the message - "The user is login".

You need to do a "view source" in your browser to see the content of the header! If so...then everything is ok with your script until here!

 

Yeah this is basically the error

 

Fatal error: Call to a member function query() on a non-object in /home/REMOVED/public_html/TZ/v3/header.php on line 2

 we need to see your content (or a db class ) of db.php file. 

This is all the db.php...

<?php
	if(strpos(strtolower($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']),strtolower(basename(__FILE__)))){
		die('Error!');
	}
	define('DB_HOST', '*REMOVED*');
	define('DB_NAME', '*REMOVED*');
	define('DB_USERNAME', '*REMOVED*');
	define('DB_PASSWORD', '*REMOVED*');
	$odb = new PDO('mysql:host=' . DB_HOST . ';dbname=' . DB_NAME, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD);
?>
