Thank you for the response. I really may be stupid, sometimes my wife thinks so anyway, but I think the current path definition IS the default as installed. It is:
/* Path for SquirrelMail required files. */ define('SM_PATH','SMail/');
What file did you find this in? This is NOT standard. Someone else changed this, not us. Depending on what file this is, it should be:
define('SM_PATH','../');or
define('SM_PATH','../../');

Now, I may have missed something or done something dumb and that is not supposed to be the default. I'd love to find out I screwed up something so easy to correct. Based on the information I have provided, should this be the proper path? If not, what SHOULD it be??
Thanks - M

I have been trying to get SM 1.4.3a running on NT4 SP6 with Apache 2.0.50, php 5.0.1 & Mercury 4.0.1a. I've followed every hint I've been able to
glean
from various info sites and there just isn't any doccumentation covering
the
new releases of SM, Apache, php and Mercury. What I run into when calling index.php from my smail directory (which resides in c:/ Apache/Apache2/htdocs) is:
Warning: main(SMail/functions/strings.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\Apache\Apache2\htdocs\SMail\src\login.php on line 19
Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'SMail/functions/strings.php' (include_path='.;C:\php5\pear') in C:\Apache\Apache2\htdocs\SMail\src\login.php on line 19
If I use absolute paths instead of the SM_PATH constant I get further. Although I haven't gone all the way and put absolute paths throughout
every
document, it seems it might work if I would. But, that isn't the goal, the goal is to use the path constant ( define('SM_PATH','SMail/'); ) for ease
of
configuration, and, as I understand it, absolute paths slow the process
way
down.
Why did you edit SM_PATH definition? Nowhere in the docs does it say to do that. The page request was made to a file in the c:/Apache/Apache2/htdocs/SMail/src directory, and because you fiddled with the SM_PATH definition, it now tries to find the included file in the nonexistent directory c:/Apache/Apache2/htdocs/SMail/SMail
Now, line 19 of the login.php calls: require_once(SM_PATH . 'functions/strings.php');. Using the absolute path it finds the file and the error message moves on
to
the next line, and so-on. When I put in an absolute path, I can keep
moving
ahead.
I've tried using an absolute path for the constant, I.E.: define('SM_PATH','c:/Apache/Apache2/htdocs/SMail/'); and I get access violations. I have tried to make the smail directory shared with full
rights
for everyone (I know, security risk) to no avail. At least with the
constant
set to 'SM_PATH','SMail/' I get the above error msg (I have all reporting turned on, another security issue)
Change it back to what it was and start from there. All configuration should be done in conf.pl or config.php if you are confident you know what you're doing.
Good luck,
Paul
