 Operating System: Win2000 SP4
 PHP Version:      4.3.10
 New Comment:

This is to clarify the original description.  

The fix was to clear the TEMP dir.  We speculate that the large number
of files in the dir (196mb), while not exceeding the max size set on
the machine, nonetheless exceeded (perhaps) the max numbering limit set
by php in order to create a new temp file.  Since the includes problem
only affected URL includes (i.e. a web page request), it made sense
that something (either PHP or Win or IIS) was failing to create a new
temp file.  Thus the include failed.

For clarity, the error message from PHP was this:

[17-Jun-2005 10:26:35] PHP Warning:  printtopside(/mypath/header.shtml)
[<a
href='http://www.php.net/function.printtopside'>function.printtopside</a>]:

Description:
------------
Our actual PHP version is 4.3.0, but that was not an option in the drop
down.  However, as many installs of 4.3.0 may still be out there, I
thought this might be a useful bug report anyway.

Our configuration allowed URL includes, which worked flawlessly for
(literally) years.  Then one day, it seemingly arbitrarily quit
working.  Though the max file size for the temp dir was not met,
nonetheless PHP quit using URL includes.  After clearing the TEMP dir,
everything returned to normal operation.

Reproduce code:
---------------
No code necessary.

Expected result:
----------------
The includes to work.

Actual result:
--------------
The includes failed.
