[PHP] DOCUMENT_ROOT errors
I updated fedora core from FC5 to TC6, thus httpd and php were updated in the process. My pages worked with no errors before the upgrade.

[PHP] $DOCUMENT_ROOT
? echo $_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]; ? c:/wwwroot is what I get. I am convinced the problem I am having is due to some issues with configuration. Here is why: I found the script that is the 'original' one that I had working just as an image displayer - not as part of a larger html document and it works at the root of the web server. I've attached that code. Here's the thing - the script is identical, with two exceptions.. a) it is executing from the server root and b) the is just a regular path without the $DOCUMENT_ROOT in there. It looks (and it works) like this: $strRealPath = images/random_gen/; //$DOCUMENT_ROOT.dirname($SCRIPT_NAME)./; I cloned this script and renamed it, then changed images/random_gen/ to: $DOCUMENT_ROOT/images/random_gen/ and guess what? I guess the EXACT same errors. It has to be something to do with where apache or php thinks the root of the server is located... since the script that is integrated into the site is down a level in the /includes/ subfolder and it points to images in the DOCUMENT_ROOT/images/random_gen/ subfolder, I really needed the script to just say 'okay go to the root of the server then go to this subfolder and look there.' It ain't working. SOo basically I have some sort of configuration issue here. I've tried modifying httpd.conf - it supposedly wants the documentRoot to be set to c:/wwwroot instead of the normal c:\wwwroot... I've tried it both ways. the doc_root= setting in php.ini is set to c:\wwwroot and I've tried it both ways. Please help. I will dance at your wedding. Anybody Buehler?

[PHP] document_root
Hi what exactly does document_root do? Does it give to path to the file from the server root? or does it give the path to the server root? has something changed in 4.2.2 If I want the path to the document I'm in how do I get it? looked everywhere (manual, books and archive), but the answer is probably so simple I'm not looking in the right place. help and abuse gratefully received.

Re: [PHP] document_root
*cringe* No, document root is a defined directory, not an attribute of a specific file. It is used to map the root URL to a directory on the filesystem. For example, when you request http://www.google.com/, that final slash in the URL is the resource you are requesting. In this case, it is the root URL for that domain, and everything branches off from that hierarchically. Document root is the filesystem directory that is equivalent to the root URL and is used by the Web server to locate the requested resource. Thus, everything within this directory is (potentially, depending on permissions) accessible via a URL. For example, if the document root for Google were /usr/local/apache/htdocs/, then the URL http://www.google.com/foo/bar/blah.php would be equivalent to /usr/local/apache/htdocs/foo/bar/blah.php on the filesystem. Hope that clarifies. Chris John W. Holmes wrote: You want DOCUMENT_ROOT.

[PHP] DOCUMENT_ROOT disappeared on me!
All,
I upgraded from PHP 4.1.2 to 4.2.1 today along with revving Apache to 1.3.26
from 1.3.22, and, woe is me, my $DOCUMENT_ROOT now evaluates to on all of
my PHP pages!
phpinfo() shows DOCUMENT_ROOT being set correctly under the Apache
variables category. I tried several variations, including setting global
$DOCUMENT_ROOT: and $ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT} and $GLOBALS[DOCUMENT_ROOT]
and so forth, but all to no avail. Good 'ol $DOCUMENT_ROOT seems quite gone,
and I wasn't able to find mentions of this happening to others on the 'Net.
Any pointers?

[PHP] $DOCUMENT_ROOT behavior linux vs solaris
I use the $DOCUMENT_ROOT environment variable quite ofter to build an absolute path to files in the web tree. I just ran into a problem moving my code from a linux box (RH6.2) to a SunW Ultra 60. Both machines are running the same version of Apache 1.3.20 and PHP4.0.6. Here's the rub. On the sun, $DOCUMENT_ROOT would add a slash at the end of the line where as the linux box would not. For example: Linux $DOCUMENT_ROOT: /www/dir/htdocs Sun $DOCUMENT_ROOT: /www/dir/htdocs/ So when I build my paths I get an extra "/".

Why not either include the doc root in the include_path of php.ini? Or
define you own DOCUMENT_ROOT constant?

RE: [PHP] $DOCUMENT_ROOT
define('DOCUMENT_ROOT', 'C:\path\to\document\root');
NOTE! This would define a global variable to all your scripts without the $
dollar sign.
include(DOCUMENT_ROOT."/folder/file.php");

Whenever I include files in Apache I always do it like this:
include($DOCUMENT ROOT."/folder/file.php");
However, now I am doing a site in IIS and I do not have $DOCUMENT ROOT at
my disposal. What do most of you usually do to workaround this? Aside from
installing Apache and Linux and bypassing the whole Windows thing :)
Why not either include the doc root in the include_path of php.ini? Or
define you own DOCUMENT_ROOT constant?
