[users@httpd] Migrating to new server

[Richard Humphrey]

We have an old PC running RedHat 7.3 with Apache 1.3.29 (i think) and it serves out some PHP/MySQL content to our internal users. I migrated everything on this machine over to a new Server running CentOS 4.0 (Apache 2.0.52).

Here are the details


Old Box                                             New Box

PHP 4.1.2                                           PHP 4.3.9
MySQL 3.23                                        MySQL 4.1.10
Apache 1.3.29                                     Apache 2.0.52

After migrating everything over we are seeing failures when we add an include directory. I modified the php.ini to add the includes directory, in this case /home/web/includes.

On the old server all worked well, but on the new server I get an error stating that it cant find the file (which is there) in the includes directory. If we put the entire path in the PHP script to the includes dir, then we get a permission denied error.

The permissions on both servers are the same. 

I guess my question is this.

Is this an Apache error or a PHP error.

Everything worked fine on the old box with identical settings, but it isnt working on the new box.

Any suggestions on where to start looking.

I did verify permissions are good etc, but maybe i missed something.
