include_path -> not using php.ini

[Anon]

Don't ask me why, but I commented out the include_path in my php.ini file (Mandrake 8.0). When I uncommented the line, it continued to use what I assume is the default setting when no include_path is set in the php.ini (.:/usr/lib/php).

I have a long list of include paths in my php.ini file that used to work just fine, but now do not work at all (even thought I've uncommented the line).

any ideas on where I should look to get php to use the include_path in the php.ini file?

I've also tried a .htaccess file in the root of the web directory with the following:

php_value include_path ".:/home/palmer/www/includes"

Doesn't seem to work either.

1. to use .htacess you must have AllowOverride All for the dir.
2. To change the include path you must restart apache after changing the ini
3. Try set_ini() if all else fails
