The include_path does not seem to work properly for include, may be also for require etc.

Try the follwing:

ini_set('include_path',"..");
require_once("include/standart.php");
-> success

ini_set('include_path',"..");
require_once("./include/standart.php");
-> failure even it's the same file as above !!

strange, isn't it ??!

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

Don't use relative paths inside include_path, it'll only result in problems.

nothing strange, really. the "./" bypasses include_path.

well, but why? 
it's not documented (or didn't i just find it?) and it's no absolute path but a relative one.

Hi,
I suspect that I have the same problem.
Platform: 
 Suse Linux 8.0, 
 Apache 2.0.43, 
 php4-STABLE-200210090900

My Squirrelmail installation can not initialize plugins 
due to undefined variables. There are a few require_once() statements that are involved.

I need to verify this more. But it kind of points in the direction of require_once() problem.
