New Install won't allow relative path includes?

RobotDeathSquad

I just installed 4.3.1 on my OS X Server. I am trying to install some very common software like phpbb and b2 (blog software) and I am getting errors.

The errors are concerning included files. PHP will give errors when you include a file with a relative path like ./file.php but if I hack the script with the full path, it works. Is this a problem with the php.ini file? I can post a link to a phpinfo() file if that will help. I've never ran in to this problem before.

Thanks,

BJ Clark

Does your include path reside within your web directories?

Are you chrooting your webservice?

I'm not sure. The errors say this:
Fatal error: main() [function.main]: Failed opening required './b2config.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /www/myilife/robotdeathsquad.com/blog/b2login.php on line 3

So the include path is not pointing to the web directories no (and yes, /www/username is the FULL path). How would I change this.

I do not believe they are CHrooted.

I'm not sure. I've been trying to track down a simliar problem. Only its with Postnuke and one of its modules.

In your php.ini make sure you have a few things set correctly:

register_globals=On
Try safe_mode=Off (if you have it on)
magic_quotes_gpc = On

All of that is correct in my php.ini

I really don't get this. 🙁
