We are currently trying to use a footer and header on our designs and we are having some issues on a Cpanel server.

I have a file named index.php that has 2 includes lines for header.htm and footer.htm.

When I try to view the page I get:


Warning: Unknown(/home/smart/public_html/index.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0

Warning: (null)(): Failed opening '/home/smart/public_html/index.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in Unknown on line 0

Any ideas?

What is weird is it works fine with IIS!

I am guessing this is a security issue. If there is a better way to do this I am all ears.

Thanks!

Try using:

<?php require ($_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]."/filename.php"); ?>

Was your script uploaded to the web by the user "smart"? If not that error can caused if open base directory restrictions are in place which will prevent you from opening files owned by another user on the server.
