PHP error - include_path='.;C:\php5\pear'

I'm working on a login script and i get these two errors after i try to insert the username / password in their appropriate fields:

Warning: require_once(includes/config.inc.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\wamp\www\link_manager\includes\login.inc.php on line 2

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/config.inc.php' (include_path='.;C:\php5\pear') in C:\wamp\www\link_manager\includes\login.inc.php on line 2

PHP:

On my includes\login.inc.php on line 2 i have this code:

require_once("includes/config.inc.php");	//the configuration file

PHP:

Could you tell what is the problem with my code?
Thanks!

 

1 possible solution:
make your include path look like:

include_path='.;C:\php5\pear;C:\wamp\www\link_manager'

Code (markup):

it is in php.ini

2 possible solution:

require_once("./config.inc.php");   

PHP:

as I can see your login.inc.php is in the same directory as config.inc.php.

 

None of these solutions worked. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

 

Are you sure you have correctly set your include path? You can also do this in code:

$path = '/where/are/the/files/';
set_include_path(get_include_path() . PATH_SEPARATOR . $path);

PHP:

If that doesn't work, just try an absolute include path instead of a relative include path in your require statements.

Probably if you're loading the config from the includes/login.php you don't need to do require 'includes/login.php' but just require 'login.php'

 

I tried using the absolute path, and it didn't work.

I also tried using your suggestion, but it also didn't work.

Any other suggestions please?

 

The absolute path should always work. Seems to me like you are not supplying the correct path.

 

I finally got it working with the help of AsHinE. (Thanks AsHine!).

It was an issue generated by the path, as you said.
The solution was:

I added these lines of code in my config.inc.php file:

define ("SITE_URL", "/link_manager/");		
	define("SITE_PATH","C:\wamp\www\link_manager");
	ini_set("include_path",SITE_PATH);

PHP:

Thank you for your help!
