[Forum] Failed to include includes/class_core.php

[Guest]

I just realized that there is this message on my error log file

[03-Aug-2011 02:20:37] PHP Warning:  require_once(/home/XXX/public_html/includes/class_core.php) [<a href='function.require-once'>function.require-once</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/XXX/public_html/includes/init.php on line 51
[03-Aug-2011 02:20:37] PHP Fatal error:  require_once() [<a href='function.require'>function.require</a>]: Failed opening required '/home/XXX/public_html/includes/class_core.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/XXX/public_html/includes/init.php on line 51

On init.php line 51 is

require_once(CWD . '/includes/class_core.php'); 

However i guess it doesn't happen on each visitor. i guess maybe 0,5% of all visitors because i have lot of visitors online, but there is only 1 or 2 error messages recorded on error log.

According to the error message

include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php'

How could the "CWD" became

.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php

?? Any clue?

PS : i have ran "Suspect File Versions" and it was fine.

Try setting the full path to your forums in config.php:

// ******** FULL PATH TO FORUMS DIRECTORY ******
// On a few systems it may be necessary to input the full path to your forums directory
// for vBulletin to function normally. You can ignore this setting unless vBulletin
// tells you to fill this in. Do not include a trailing slash!
// Example Unix:
// $config['Misc']['forumpath'] = '/home/users/public_html/forums';
// Example Win32:
// $config['Misc']['forumpath'] = 'c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\vb3';
$config['Misc']['forumpath'] = '';

CWD = Current working directory.

so the script tried to do (if the current working directory was /home/username/public_html) require_once(/home/username/public_html/includes/class_core.php

If the CWD didn't come back correctly, it checks the INCLUDE path, in php which is /usr/lib/php and /usr/local/lib/php It also couldn't find the file there.
