http://se2.php.net/manual/en/function.require.php:
require() and include() are identical in every way except
how they handle failure.
Note: Prior to PHP 4.0.2, the following applies: require()
will always attempt to read the target file, even if the
line it's on never executes.
The manual is correct.
The only real difference these days is that require issues an E_ERROR
(which halts processing) and include issues an E_WARNING (which lets
your script continue)
In olden times, the differences were bigger and more subtle, such as
order of compilation etc. Few folks grokked it, and even fewer (like,
none) needed it, so it got simplified.

No luck with these solutions. What does work is:
require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/../php/support.php');
but I still don't understand why the relative link doesn't work.

Of course there is. For example, say you're in a laterally-equal

? include('../otherdir/file.php'); ?
As long as you have permissions to read the files, you're good to
go. My guess is that you may have done the relative linking
improperly. Is the file actually `web/includes/support.php` called
from `web/index.php`?
The other thing I would suggest is making sure your target include

Hi Tony,
Please keep in mind that the use of
php_admin_value include_path /afs/msu.edu/.../web
...will prevent a user from changing the include_path because of the admin
part (this is ok for the safe mode include dir, but not for the include_path
setting I think). So, I'd say you keep the safe_mode_include_dir, and change
the include path to:
php_value include_path /afs/msu.edu/.../web
Also, it is likely that while using relative paths you run into problems
because the current directory can be anything except the expected one, so
I'd rather use absolute paths (if it's my own code) or fix it using
.htaccess files (this is your case as you are a sysadmin) like this:
php_value include_path /one/path;/another/path;./
... but for that to work you must not use php_admin_value in the virtualhost
config (notice that this is not related to safe mode security, if safe_mode
is well configured, it doesn't mind what you are using as include_dir).
If anyone has more ideas... please throw them (and fix my errors).

Hi all, I have PHP 4.1.2 as Apache module, Safe-Mode On. I want to use the safe_mode_include_dir directive and ... this does not work. I have this in the directory directive of httpd.conf, I put the include_path to exactly the same path, I use complete path, and I always get the safe-mode restriction in effect error. I have found some information about this directive working for 4.0.7 and higher, but nothing usefull ( I tried several configurations ) to me and nothing about 4.1.2.
