Get drupal installed document root

By Houssem on 16 May 2013 in Drupal

To get the complete base path where the Drupal site is installed you can use:

$root_path = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . base_path()

1	$root_path = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . base_path()

On a Ubuntu system you will get something like:

/var/www/all_projects/myproject/

1	/var/www/all_projects/myproject/

If you only use “base_path()”, you will obtain only:

/myproject/

1	/myproject/
