PHP require_once failed to open stream permission denied
centos, php
Solution
The problem was not a permission issue. The file I was including was named mysql_connect.php which I think conflicts with either one of mysql's files or functions so the server was confusing my file for that and wouldn't require_once() or include_once() or include() the file. Hence the permission denied fatal error. I change the name of the file and all is well. Thanks to you all for trying to help me out.
Problem
I keep getting the error below even after changing the permissions of the folder. I don't know what to do. Not sure why. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm working with Cent-os server and this is a php script. require_once(mysql_connect.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: Permission denied Date/Time: 7-28-2009 20:09:44
