PHP Error

I am trying to setup php on my website and I keep getting the following error:

Warning: main(66.179.153.16\alionic.net\irater\include/functions.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in E:\inetpub\vhosts\alionic.net\httpdocs\irater\index.php on line 4

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: template() in E:\inetpub\vhosts\alionic.net\httpdocs\irater\index.php on line 18

This is a new install and I have read through the installation instructions to make sure everything was set up properly and they are as far as I know....

Can anyone help me please??

I also forgot to mention, that this is all windows based and I read in the intructions that I should use \ instead of the /

So I set all of that up... I would appreciate any help that you can give me at all.

I will share more info upon request.

check your include file

include ('yourfile');
the include file must be calling on the same folder or hard drive or not same folder but same directory

OK, I am helping a friend with this problem and judging by the address of the website it looks like the server is on his computer. Should I have him create the directory c:\inetpub\vhosts......?

I feel like I have no clue what I'm doing with this... I checked the directories on the webserver avaliable to him and there is no vhosts directory and vhosts is not a part of the config file where I have it set up...

I have it set as $base_path = "66.179.153.16/alionic.net/irater";

However, in the parent directory, the irater file is in a folder alled httpdocs... What should I set the base path as?

IE: On his webserver it is set up in alionic.net/httpdocs\irater

I have tried making that the directory but I still get the same errors and Im not sure if its because it doesnt matter what is in the web directory or if he should be setting it up in a directory on his computer due to the IP Address in front of the website address... Is it pulling from his computer?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Seems a weird error message . As you get '66.179.153.16\alionic.net\irater\include/functions.php' , as error message wich is pretty long.

What is you include statement???
Try this one:
include('include/functions.php');

Work with relative paths NOT absolute!!!!
