Hello guys, I have the following problem: in my PHP.ini (which stays under c:\WINNT) I have include_path = "P:\includes; " ; UNIX: "/path1:/path2" Windows: "\path1;\path2" doc_root = ; the root of the php pages, used only if nonempty under "P:\includes" are PHPLIB and some few scripts that I need to auto_prepend under all the roots on my local server. PHPLIB is being included properly, but, if I try to include a file within a current directory like: include ("header.inc"); I get the following error: Warning: Failed opening 'header.inc' for inclusion (include_path='P:\includes; ') in p:\phpbeginner\index.html on line 17 (NOTE: include ("$DOCUMENT_ROOT/header.inc"); will work perfectly ) I know that on Linux to fix the problem would be enough to add something like this into PHP.INI include_path = ".: /full/path/to/includes: " ; UNIX: "/path1:/path2" Windows: "\path1;\path2" How do I do this under Win2K ? Anyone had this problem before? Cheers, Maxim Maletsky Founder, Chief Developer PHPBeginner.com (Where PHP Begins) [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.phpbeginner.com

Thanks Doug! You have just fixed it for me! I've tried it before (since I know how to do it on Linux) except that I haven't close the path with a backslash. At that point I though it won't work the way on Linux does. Thanks a bunch, I appreciate your help.

Does this mailing list have an FAQ anywhere? [Simon Willison] -----Original Message----- From: Paul Trapnell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 01 February 2001 01:00 To: php Subject: re: links to php install bundles and tutorials --thanks for the additional tutorial link (the Meloni one at WebMonkey). If anyone wishes to add any additional links to install bundles and tutorials, post them here and I'll add them to this list. An updated list can then be reposted (either by me or anyone who saves a copy) each time a new reader requests the locations of install bundles or tutorials. To post a reply to the list, click here: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
If there is a FAQ, I've never found it. However, the list is archived daily (twice daily?) on php.net and you can search the archive if you can be bothered! Anyone know who to contact about setting up a FAQ on php.net? Or has anyone got a reliable site with space (and the time to manage) a FAQ? I'd quite happily manage the FAQ, but the only reliable sites I've got are on commercial servers and I can't take the traffic hit. I've only been reading the list for a couple of months or so, and am already seeing the same questions cropping up again and again. There's loads of people out there (hopefully including me) who are more than willing to try and give answers, but a FAQ really would help to filter out the 'How can I run PHP on Windows 98' RTFM! type of things.

I would put something like that up on www.kill-9.dk or on www.php-unlimited.com (when it is done.) and am willing to help out. The server running both sites can take the load with no problem. Space is also no problem and mysql included so it could be searchable. But are you sure there isn't already some kind of FAQ out there in net land? Not that I have looked for one. kill-9 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Mathews" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "php" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, February 01, 2001 12:52 PM Subject: Re: [PHP-WIN] RE: links to php install bundles and tutorials > If there is a FAQ, I've never found it.

I suggest we leave this thread until end of play on Monday (then the weekenders can have a chance to see it as well). If no-one has any info about a FAQ by then, then maybe we should go ahead with the kill-9 idea?

I have a very big problem please. I installed Oracle on my Windows Professional server. However, whenever I try to call the Oracle OIC connect function, it tells me that the function is invalid. Please, I need to know if there is anything I need to do to enable me to connect to the Oracle server using PHP because I can connect to mySql on the same machine using the same PHP function for mySQL.

If there was an error with the DB connection, then the 'or die' clause should pick it up? If nothing has changed between the IIS nad Apache implementation then I don't know what is happenning If however you have changed the table structure at the same time... or maybe don't have any records on your DB?

I am trying to write a query to bring back rows that have null values set in them. I cannot figure out how to do this. I can bring back all rows that do not have nulls with the following query. SELECT [ID], [Project Name], [Start Construction Date], [Actual Completion Date] FROM common WHERE [Start Construction Date] != ' ' OR [Actual Completion Date] != ' ' I tried changing the != to = but it does not return anything. I am running these queries off a MSSQL 7.0 Server Ryan
I don't know ANYTHING about ANY of this stuff...but where I come from (C) you would use 2 equal signs (==) to match values. Dunno if that applies here, but usually when you use 1 equal sign, you are assigning values.

But still there is much of truth in that remark. The answer is of course, both for softdrinks and scriptlanguages: it depends on. I guess in most case it is not actually about the language, but more related to the skills of the one who develops the system. As the story says: there are tools available today that can make anybody build their own house. The different though between a craftsman and common person lies in the fact that the craftsman can use any tool (of house building) to build a house... >From: Michael Stearne > >Which is better Coke or Pepsi? > >I'm kidding, but there was just a really long discussion on [...] >On Monday, January 29, 2001, at 06:08 AM, Antonio Lopez wrote: >> PHP or JSP ? >> >> I need to know what language is better to develop powerful dinamic web pages.
