I have a cron job that needs to include this file:
require '../includes/common.php';
however, when it is run via the cron job (and not my local testing), the relative path does not work. the cron job runs the following file (on the live server):
/home/username123/public_html/cron/mycronjob.php
and here's the error:
Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required '../includes/common.php'
(include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in
/home/username123/public_html/cron/mycronjob.php on line 2
using the same absolute format as the cron job, common.php
would be located at
/home/username123/public_html/includes/common.php
does that mean i have to replace my line 2 with:
require '/home/username123/public_html/includes/common.php';
?
thanks!
