Topic: Please help! News not showing - Is this a file location issue?

I'm getting the following errors:

Warning: include(E:\Domains     hewordtelecom.co.uk\user\htdocs\cutenews/show_news.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: Invalid argument in E:\Domains\t\thewordtelecom.co.uk\user\htdocs\default.php on line 177

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening 'E:\Domains     hewordtelecom.co.uk\user\htdocs\cutenews/show_news.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;C:\php\pear') in E:\Domains\t\thewordtelecom.co.uk\user\htdocs\default.php on line 177



The URL to show_news.php works fine, I'm wondering whether "E:\Domains\t\thewordtelecom.co.uk\user\htdocs\cutenews/show_news.php" is correct, I've used cute news in the past but never seen an E directory generated? I have tried without it and it hasn't worked.

Could it be that my CHOMODDING has been rejected by the server/host?

Instead of using an absolute server address use a relative one.
Try:
include("cutenews/show_news.php");

I was thrown out by seeing E: in the prefix..

cutenews/show_news.php worked fine! Thought i'd already tried this but maybe not!

Thanks for your help, basic stuff in the end haha

This suggests that you are on a windows server.
