Problem with MySQL files.

I have set up Wamp5 successfully.
I have created a database named "sxoleio". (host=localhost, user=root, NO pass).
It lies into the path c:/wamp/mysql/data/sxoleio.

I made a project with forms in PHP for searching into the database.
It lies into the path c:/wamp/www/ΕΡΓΑΣΤΗΡΙΟ ΒΔ 2005 - 2006/

There lies the file :

ANAZITISI_MATHITIS.php

<html>
<head>
<title>&#913;&#925;&#913;&#918;&#919;&#932;&#919;&#931;&#919; &#931;&#932;&#927;&#925; &#928;&#921;&#925;&#913;&#922;&#913; mathitis</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>&#913;&#925;&#913;&#918;&#919;&#932;&#919;&#931;&#919; &#931;&#932;&#927;&#925; &#928;&#921;&#925;&#913;&#922;&#913; mathitis</h1>
<?php
// create short variable names
$searchtype=$HTTP_POST_VARS['searchtype'];
$searchterm=$HTTP_POST_VARS['searchterm'];

$searchterm= trim($searchterm);

if (!$searchtype || !$searchterm)
{
echo '&#916;&#949;&#957; &#941;&#967;&#949;&#964;&#949; &#949;&#953;&#963;&#940;&#947;&#949;&#953; &#948;&#949;&#948;&#959;&#956;&#941;&#957;&#945;.&#928;&#945;&#961;&#945;&#954;&#945;&#955;&#974; &#960;&#961;&#959;&#963;&#960;&#945;&#952;&#949;&#943;&#963;&#964;&#949; &#958;&#945;&#957;&#940;.';
exit;
}

$searchtype = addslashes($searchtype);
$searchterm = addslashes($searchterm);

$db = mysql_connect('localhost', 'root');

mysql_select_db('sxoleio',$db);
$query = "select * from mathitis where ".$searchtype." like '%".$searchterm."%'";
$result = mysql_query($query);

$num_results = mysql_num_rows($result);


for ($i=0; $i <$num_results; $i++)
{
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
echo '<br />&#927;&#925;&#927;&#924;&#913;: ';
echo stripslashes($row['name']);
echo '<br />&#917;&#928;&#937;&#925;&#933;&#924;&#927;: ';
echo stripslashes($row['lastname']);
echo '<br />&#913;&#924;: ';
echo stripslashes($row['am']);
echo '<br />&#922;&#913;&#932;&#913;&#915;&#937;&#915;&#919;: ';
echo stripslashes($row['katagogi']);
echo '<br />&#928;&#913;&#932;&#929;&#937;&#925;&#933;&#924;&#927;: ';
echo stripslashes($row['patronymo']);
echo '<br />&#919;&#924;&#917;&#929;&#927;&#924;&#919;&#925;&#921;&#913; &#915;&#917;&#925;&#925;&#919;&#931;&#919;&#931;: ';
echo stripslashes($row['hmgen']);
echo '<br />&#932;&#913;&#926;&#919;: ';
echo stripslashes($row['taxi']);
echo '<br />&#913;&#929;&#921;&#920;&#924;&#927;&#931; &#913;&#921;&#920;&#927;&#933;&#931;&#913;&#931;: ';
echo stripslashes($row['ar_aithousas']);
echo '</p>';
}
?>

</body>
</html>


MY PROBLEM IS THAT :
Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0

Warning: Unknown: Failed opening 'C:\wamp\www\&#926;•&#926;&#901;&#926;“&#926;‘&#926;£&#926;¤&#926;—&#926;&#901;&#926;™&#926;Ÿ &#926;’&#926;” 2005 - 2006\&#926;”&#926;™&#926;•&#926; &#926;‘&#926;¦&#926;•&#926;£_&#926;‘&#926;&#926;‘&#926;–&#926;—&#926;¤&#926;—&#926;£&#926;—\ANAZITISI_MATHITIS.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;C:\php5\pear') in Unknown on line 0

In what folder must I put the files of my database "sxoleio" in order to connect to it?

1.) First, you said you created the DB sxoleio, is this a SQLite DB, or a MySQL DB? You don’t need to know about the path of the DB (c:/wamp/mysql/data/sxoleio) for MySQL DB's.

2.) The super glogal $HTTP_POST_VARS is old school. Because of regiser global issues in older versions of php, $HTTP_POST_VARS was depreciated. Use the newer and safer super global:

change:

$searchtype=$HTTP_POST_VARS['searchtype'];
$searchterm=$HTTP_POST_VARS['searchterm'];

To this:

$searchtype=$_POST['searchtype'];
$searchterm=$_POST['searchterm'];

3.) According to the errors you are getting, you are not using the right path to inclue your files. For example I put all my php functions in a file called functions.inc.php, and I put them in this folder:
c:wamp\www\includes\functions\functions.inc.php

So, to included them in my php scripts I use:

include_once ('includes/functions/functions.inc.php');
