How do I know the server path for adding to an include_path

I have everything working locally with php_value include_path "C:/wamp/www/project" in my htaccess file, but I don't know what to set this value to once it's uploaded to the server. I tried the actual url but it didn't work; I'm guessing this needs to be relative to the server, but I'm not sure how to extrapolate the appropriate server path.

Solution

  • One of the ways is to upload a test script to your server and 

    echo dirname(__file__);

    You can see the path of the directory in which your file is.

    Another way is to 

    echo $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']'

    I hope it helps.
