to avoid the hassles with the INCLUDE_PATH (it does not recognise ./ in the php.ini, neither accepts 'no value') I inserted for a test a complete URL like include("http://...."). When I ran it under PHP3.16 (Apache module) and PHP4RC1 (Roxen module) it worked but RC2 (Roxen module) did not only crash Roxen it also destroyed some essential parts of its installation with the result that Roxen could not use the php module anymore. This means it either selfdestructed or damaged the part in Roxen that provides the module support. My backup copy worked fine, after I changed the include variable back to a simple file name.
