require_once not working in server

Question

Folder

fb/fb-include.php

index.php

i was going to access my fb-include.php in my index.php and i have this line at my index page.

require_once('/fb/fb-include.php');

it work on my localhost wamp , but when i update to server , it wont work anymore.

i also try this

$root = realpath($_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]);

require_once('$root/fb/fb-include.php');

Only works if you change require_once to include? Nope. It just doesn't throw a fatal. — Jonnix, Apr 04 '17 at 08:15

update your code like this

require_once $root.'/fb/fb-include.php';

or

require_once($root.'/fb/fb-include.php');

and need to sure root give your rootpath

or you can use like this

require_once('fb/fb-include.php')
