php Scripts and sub-domains

Patrickof

Hi,

I've setup a subdomain on my web server (hosted solution).

So now I log into (and ftp to) sub.mydomain.ie rather than mydomain.ie.

And this presents me with the folder at mydomain.ie/sub as my new root folder.

The problem occurs when I try to include_once or require_once some of the php include files (e.g. require_once 'Mail.php';).

I get an error saying that the script cannot open the Mail.php file as it can't find it.

Is there a way to force the path to see the folder structure "above" the subdomain, so that it can see the /php directory?

(The /php folder is located alongside the /public_html folder in my domain root folder)

To go to the parent directory, put ../ before your path. Every two dots indicates the next parent directory. In your case I believe you'd use ../php/Mail.php.
