Inclusion Weirdness

Hey There,

I am having I weird problem with using PHP::DB. I have an OO model whereby I
load objects and they know how to persist and load themselves. For some
reaons in certain places in my code, when I attempt to use the DB methods to
query the DB - DB.php returns an error:

[2004-08-01 00:51:21] connect(): Failed opening 'DB/.php' for inclusion
(include_path='.:/local/packages/php/lib/php:/local/packages/phrame:/local/p
ackages/Savant') in /local/packages/php-4.3.8/lib/php/DB.php:373

I have checked and DB.php is located in /local/packages/php/lib/php and is
the same file as /local/packages/php-4.3.8/lib/php/DB.php

The code that creates the objects and loads them is the same in both places,
but in certain places the error is produced:
$instance = new TrackedInstance();
$instance->setTrackedID( $this->trackedID );
$instance->load();

Any idea what might be causing this or how to better troubleshoot the source
of the problem?

Shawn.

For clarification:

When I say that the problem is happening in one part of my code, and isn't
in another - I mean that the result is different depending on the file. One
file (where is works) is a View extended class (Phrame), but it is not
working in a file that is an Action extended class.

Thanks,
Shawn.

What exactly is the code at line 373 of DB.php?

Note the '/' after the DB. I think that you are failing to populate a
variable that identifies the correct .php script within the DB directory to
include.

You appear to be using the latter, not the former. But I also think that is
not relevant to the issue at hand.

As was already recommended by another, post the code at line 373 of DB.php.
As a suggestion, you should go to line 373 of DB.php and echo all the
variables used in line 373 to see what they contain.
