Are you sure you have the Connections/xxx.php on the same relative paths on
the both servers

Say you are in /home/username/public_html

Then to the first one to work, you will need the file located in

/home/username/Connections/xxx.php

for the second one to work, the file need to be located in

/home/username/public_html/Connections/xxx.php


You can also set a include directory that is always checked when including
files, in that case the file may be located in

/var/php/include/Connections/xxx.php

and can be included with

require_once('Connections/xxx.php');

as Devid pointed out, check the php.ini.
