I am currently going through 'davidj's php tutorials @ http://www.dreamweaverclub.com/vtm/php-mysql-apache.php and am in the process of learning. I am encountering an issue though that I can't seem to find an answer to. Maybe someone can help me. I downloaded the WAMP server, (which I found out I could do after painstakingly manually setting up my own set of wamp programs) and made it up to the part of the tutorials when I am required to check out my work. (This is my connections.php) <?php ////////////////////////////////////// $database = "practice"; $username = "daniel"; $password = "buggytaz"; /////////////////////////////////////// $link = @mysql_connect('localhost', $username, $password); $db = mysql_select_db($database, $link); ?> (And this is my practice.php) <?php require_once("Connections/connection.php"); //database connection ///////////////////////////////////////////////////// $query =sprintf("SELECT * FROM table1"); $result =@mysql_query($query); $row =mysql_fetch_array($result); ///////////////////////////////////////////////////// echo $row['field2']; ?> The database IS in place through the SQL managment program. I am able to view my php.info document. Now... this is the issue that I am having. When I try to view the page I get this back: Warning: require_once(Connections/connection.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\wamp\www\WebRoot\Test\Images\practice.php on line 2 Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'Connections/connection.php' (include_path='.;C:\php5\pear') in C:\wamp\www\WebRoot\Test\Images\practice.php on line 2 I have a feeling that my issue is contained within: (include_path='.;C:\php5\pear') But I honestly have no idea. Please give me a hand if you can. Unable2peastr8@xxxxxxxxx
