Need help immediately, strange error

[keith73]

Was working at home on this app on a W98 machine with MySQL 3.23, PHP 4.1.2 and Apache 1.3.2 and it was working.
Got into the office and setup the database and the tables on a W2K machine running the same software and I get an error when trying to include a file using require.

Error:

Fatal error: Failed opening required 'includes/categories.inc.php' (include_path='c:\php4\pear') in PATH_TO_FILE.php on line 9
Any ideas? This is an emergency, I need this stuff running by the end of the day for a demo to clients. I checked my php.ini file and saw that include_path did not appear to be set.

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Paths and Directories ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

; UNIX: "/path1:/path2"

;include_path = ".:/php/includes"
;
; Windows: "\path1;\path2"
;include_path = ".;c:\php\includes"

It may seem like a silly question but is the file that is being required at the correct location. ie c:\php4\pear??

Mark.

that wasn't the problem. I found the answer in the install forum. All I had to do was set my include_path to my php root directory (c:\php) and it worked.
