My include_path value on my php.ini instance (which works) is:

include_path = ".:/usr/local/php4/lib"

That's almost identical to my PHP 5 setting (include_path = 
".:/usr/local/php5/lib/php").  I've also tried setting my include_path in 
my test code using:

ini_set("include_path", "/home/bu/jsantana/htdocs");

The only thing that changes is my error:

Warning: include(../extension.inc) [function.include]: failed to open 
stream: Permission denied in 
/home/bu/jsantana/htdocs/php/IncludeExample.php on line 4

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening '../extension.inc' 
for inclusion (include_path='/home/bu/jsantana/htdocs') in 
/home/bu/jsantana/htdocs/php/IncludeExample.php on line 4

Note the change of the include_path value. 

I have used diff to compare my v4 php.ini and v5 php.ini files.  The major 
difference is that PHP v4 is running in safe_mode whereas PHP v5 is not. 
However, I have attempted to switch my PHP v5 instance into safe_mode with 
the same results.

Would you mind sharing your configure command?  I'd like to compare it 
with the ones I've tried (I backup my configure lines as well)

Thanks in advance.

^^^this directive is not set correctly - it looks like the 
default values to me. Maybe you need to check the 
include_path value for the previous version of PHP.

include("/home/bu/jsantana/htdocs/extension.inc")

You may need to set that option in your php.ini file, so it 
is a standard include path.

I use ../../ all over the place on PHP 5.2.1 - the only 
complaints I get from PHP is if I have not set the include 
path correctly.

I compile php myself, and use a copy of the configuration 
file for the previous version. I make backups as well, just 
in case I need them.

You could also use a GUI-based file comparison utility (like 
KDiff3) if Solaris has one, to compare both php.ini files 
from PHP4 and the new PHP5. This will highlight right away 
any differences in those two files.
