Major Problems After PHP 4.3 Upgrade--PLEASE HELP!!!

webproclaim

I just upgraded to PHP 4.3 and I am having some major problems now.

All of my include files no longer work. Apparantly PHP 4.3 does not like it when I make links relative to the site root.

I have thousands of pages on my server effected by this. Changing the code is not an option. Please help!!!

The error I get is:

"Warning: main(/includes/top_banner.htm) [function.main]: failed to create stream: No such file or directory in C:!Webs\OnePercent\default.php on line 78"

Below is an example code illustrating the problem.

Code:

This does not work
<?php include('/includes/top_banner.htm'); ?>

This will work
<?php include('includes/top_banner.htm'); ?>

You need to edit your php.ini you need to set your include_path to whatever your webdirectory is, then you should be able to include the way you are trying.

I tried that but it still isn't working.

I also tried to fix this by using a backup of my php.ini file that I was using under 4.2 that worked fine and I still have the same problems.

For now I am going to revert back to 4.2 until this gets worked out. I am assuming this is a bug in 4.3.

Anyone else using PHP on Windows XP having this problem?

I'm using 4.3 and this isn't a problem for me on any of my servers.

jerdo,

Are you using PHP 4.3 on Windows? If so, would you mind emailing me a copy of your php.ini file? Perhaps it is a problem with my config (nothing I have done to fix this has worked though).

If you are not on Windows, I'm not sure you will have this problem.
