Hi
everynow and again my site experiences the following error:
Warning: main(db_functions.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory
before you say it the file is in the right directory and 99% of the time the all pages of the site work perfectly.
However what I want to no is the reason behind this 1% error message
any ideas?

this is not the problem, all url's are correct, if you read the web pages work 99% of the time
I can use all the web pages features for a week with no problem and then out of the blue I am displayed this error which can be cleared by refreashing the page again
any ideas how to fix the problem

Maybe someone else is uploading an update of that file exactly at the time you visit (Yeah... rather unlikely).

can you give the code of your include or require statement.
i think u use a include, thats why there is a warning.
may be you can show snippets of code for the two files.

Code: Select all
include_once('../includes/db_functions.php');
include_once('../includes/search_functions.php');
include_once('../includes/cat_functions.php');
include_once('../includes/user_auth_functions.php');

i think before the include statements you can try
file_exists($filename) and is_readable($filename)
