Yeah, I am using the exact same path as I get from that php in point 2 of troubleshooting. Is there anything else?

Here is an update on the situation.

I am using the test.php you have mentioned previously in this thread.

I have test.php in three different places on my host:

/httpdroot
/httpdroot/forum
/httpdroot/auction

Now, when I remove the chdir statement at the top of the script, in both the httpdroot and auction test.php's, the screen is just blank white, no source. The forum test.php works fine.

Previously, when I had the chdir statement at the top of the test.php's, the auction and httpdroot test.php's gave a login.php not found error, it stated it was looking for login.php in the httpdroot, which is not were it was. However, the forum test.php still worked fine.

So, how can I get files OUTSIDE of my forum directory to work with this?

I've now tried various thngs with the chdir at the top, omitting it, adding another one after the require, changing the path to of the test.php file and still nothing. The only one that works is the one in the main forum directory.
