I have a site that physically has this directory structure.

-public_html
--conf     > contains file conf.php 
-SiteFiles
-LiveSite > contains file ConfLive.php

Directory public_html/conf/ contains a file called conf.php

this file contains the following include include_once('/home/mydir/SiteFiles/LiveSite/conf/ConfLive.iphp');

I want to copy this application to test PC to test it. Test PC uses XAMPP Apache. "Root" directory on the test machine is: C:\xampp\htdocs\

My questions: 1. Where is logical path "/home/mydir/" defined? 2. What steps should I take to get this to work on my test machine preferably by server configuration and not changing application.

Thanks. (PS maybe this question is better posed at Server Overflow site.)
