Folks: I can find get_include_path(), set_include_path() and I see (commented out) include_path settings in php.ini in both Arch and Debian. What I don't see is the purpose of this config value. What does it point to? I'm trying to run php scripts in my ~/paulf/public_html (set up through Apache), and it won't run them, giving me an error of "Failed opening required 'name-of-file' (include_path='.:') in Unknown on line on line 0". The script I'm attempting to run just contains "<?php phpinfo(); ?>". So any clues on the purpose and meaning of include_path and how it might apply to this problem? Paul -- Paul M.
