Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required
.htaccess, localhost, php, require-once, xampp
Solution
try `chdir(dirname(__FILE__))` this sets the relative path to the path of the file. So `C:\XAMPP\htdocs\wapp\` becomes your "root directory" and therefore `config.inc.php` is the same as `C:\XAMPP\htdocs\wapp\config.inc.php`. If this still doesn't to the trick check your file paths
Edit:
You have to traverse there. Check the relative root of the project (`getcwd()`). I assume its `C:\XAMPP\htdocs\wapp\` you have to change your require to this:
`require_once ('../conf/conf.inc.php')` the `..` make you go up one directory
OK just do this:
`require_once("../conf/conf.inc.php");`
Problem
I'm trying to run my online site on my local machine. I stumbled upon a problem. This is my htaccess ``` AddDefaultCharset UTF-8 Options -Indexes #php_value include_path .:/home/sites/www.example.it/example.it/htdocs/conf/ php_value include_path .:/XAMPP/htdocs/conf/ php_value display_errors on php_value upload_max_filesize 20M php_value post_max_size 50M php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine on #RewriteBase / #RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.it [NC] #RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.it/ [L,R=301] </IfModule> <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /common.* RewriteRule ^common/(.*) resources/media/common/$1 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /upload/img.* RewriteRule ^upload/img/(.*)$ wapp/ir.php?path=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /upload.* RewriteRule ^upload/(.*) resources/upload/$1 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/google.* RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/common.* RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/upload.* RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/upload/img/.* RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/wapp/ir.php RewriteRule ^(.*)$ wapp/index.php?url=$1 </IfModule> ``` The error I receive: Warning: `require_once(conf.inc.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\XAMPP\htdocs\wapp\index.php on line 2` Fatal error: `require_once(): Failed opening required 'conf.inc.php' (include_path='.:/XAMPP/htdocs/conf/') in C:\XAMPP\htdocs\wapp\index.php on line 2` How can I solve it? Maybe it deals with the privileges of the xampp user ... edit: getcwd() gives me C:\XAMPP\htdocs\wapp conf.inc.php is located in: C:\XAMPP\htdocs\conf\ the require in index.php: require_once("conf.inc.php");
