I have recently made an API now for that api i have made a subdomain however it broke my php file includes
include $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/core/init.php';
now my subdomain i am using is api.website.com and i need to include something from website.com when i try to include its giving the root of the subdomain,
Summary When i try to include init.php i get
Warning: include(/home/website/public_html/API/core/init.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/website/public_html/api/apex/getusers.php on line 2
When i actually need
Warning: include(/home/website/public_html/core/init.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/website/public_html/api/apex/getusers.php on line 2
I apologize for my grammar if need be.
Changing your include path to
include ("../../core/init.php");
will fix your problem. However, this is not a recommended approach.
You should think about using a dependency manager like composer. ( https://getcomposer.org/ ). Then your included files will always be under a directory like
/home/website/public_html/vendor/core
and there will be less of a chance of your application breaking if the files in /home/website/public_html/core change.
This should work.
include("../core/init.php");
Use following code
include_once $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/../core/init.php';
