ALL :: ZONES :: can't get PHP to execute scripts outside Document Root

Yo.
I've got PHP 4.1.0 installed and running under Apache 1.3.23 on a SuSE 8.0 box. If I put a .php file anywhere under in my document root (/usr/local/httpd/htdocs/), it will run fine. but .php files WON'T run inside any user folders (/home/mike/public_html/ for example). I just get this error:

<b>Warning:</b> Failed opening '/home/mike/public_html/php/processorder.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in <b>Unknown</b> on line <b>0</b>

Can someone tell me what I need to do to be able to execute scripts outsude of my document root???

thanks.

check Directory settings in httpd.conf

you could try setting up a virtual host for that specific directory, or you could set the documentroot to your machines root (but that's not a good ideea)


or make a linux link from /home/mike/public_html/ and put it under the documentroot it's the easiest way.
EX: you in the directory /usr/local/httpd/htdocs/ here you write ln -s /home/mike/public_html/ and it make s you a link to the home of mike

well, documents are ***supposed to*** be in the DOCUMENT_ROOT tree ;-)))))

if not, you may follow the above advice, unless you ask yourself WHY you should put files anywhere else than in $DOCUMENT_ROOT/somedirectory/ having built proper /directory rules for access via httpd.conf/Deny/Allow or .htaccess

Check the permissions for those files. My guess is that the web server doesn't have permission to read from them.
