I'm running php 5.2.5 with these settings in a virtualhost block in apache 2.0.61: php_admin_flag safe_mode on php_admin_value include_path "/afs/msu.edu/.../web" php_admin_value safe_mode_include_dir "/afs/msu.edu/.../web" I've got an index.php file in web/support/ that does a require_once("../includes/support.php"); Being in afs with write access from multiple people, the uids of the files do not match and I get an error stating that. So I put the safe_mode_include_dir line above in but it did not fix the problem until I used the absolute path in the require_once line. Is there a way to include files with relative paths? -- Tony -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
