I've installed the trial version as a pre-purchase test -- need a demo for my boss. I'm working on a Win2K server running IIS5, MySQL 3.23 and PHP 4.2.1 with the PHP ISAPI filter installed.

After some initial misunderstanding, I got ubbthreads demo running with two problems, one trivial and one a show stopper.

1) trivial. The graphic ipheader.gif is nowhere to be found on my system.

2) includes are not working. I tried several different versions of include_path = ".;c:\wish_I_had_a_good_path". In all cases I get this flavor of error message:

Warning: Failed opening 'c:inetpubwwwrootubbthreads/languages/english/generic.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ubbthreads\includes') in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ubbthreads\ubbt.inc.php on line 98

The paths are accurate but the statement -- c:inetpubwwwrootubbthreads -- is suspicious for it's lack of slashes. It's always there, no matter what string I put into include_path.

Everything not dependent on a php include seems to work -- but that ain't much.

TIA,
Don
