Use WWW_ROOT: file_get_contents(WWW_ROOT.'templates/email.html') Think of WWW_ROOT as a modified $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'], on account of the redirects that Cake uses. As far as Apache is concerned, DOCUMENT_ROOT is '/home/user/public_html' (you were missing the leading /, btw) while, from Cake's perspective, it's actually below that. Hence the need for a new constant, WWW_ROOT. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
