Can anybody help with the last detail of my new system. I have hit a brick wall with some php code file references trying to include files and classes. I have a script that uses Pear Mail to send SMTP e-mails and it has been working fine for years in my public_html directory at my server service on a UNIX server. I have a copy of this script in a further directory, instructorapps, in my public_HTML directory and moving it up one level has broken it. From the errors it is obviously file references in the include path which is handled by the php code:
$path = "/home/thebrigh/php";
set_include_path(get_include_path() . PATH_SEPARATOR . $path);
require_once ('../php/Mail.php');
This is the code that works in the public_html directory and I have tried many combinations of things to get it to work one level up. get_include_path() returns .:/usr/lib/php:/home/thebrigh/php in the working file and .:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/home/thebrigh/php in the non working one. It's the middle bit /usr/local/lib/php: that I guess is causing problems but I can't seem to get rid of it.
Many Thanks Colin
