    i have a multisite which is running fine .I also have a website in php which have a user base.
    I need to make a user in wordpress when someone register in my php website.
    i am trying to write the code for username validation,if this works then I can use other wordpress function to create the user.Can anyone help me out in finding where I have done wrong in the code.
    my code is

    <?php
//the include is working fine
require_once('D:\wamp/www/d2mail/wp-blog-header.php') ;

//taken this variable for testing purpose
$user_name="admin" ;
$password="admin";
$password=md5($password);
$email="admin@admin.com";

$user_id = wp_create_user($user_name, $password, $email) ;
// check if there was an error
if (is_wp_error($user_id)){
     if (!isset($errhandler)){
         $errhandler= new apperrors() or die ("unable to creat instance of app errors") ;
                     }          $errhandler->add($user_id->get_error_message(),"my_wp_class->add_user") or  die("unable to add record to errors - $user_id");;

            }

?>

    I have receiving an error message as
    Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_create_user() in D:\wamp\www\multiregistration\register.php on line 11

    i have modified the code a bit

    <?php
//the include is working fine
require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/multisite/wp-blog-header.php') ;

//taken this variable for testing purpose
$user_name="admin1" ;
$password="admin1";
$password=md5($password);
$email="admin@admin.com";

$user_id = wp_create_user($user_name, $password, $email) ;
// check if there was an error
if (is_wp_error($user_id)){
     if (!isset($errhandler)){
         $errhandler= new apperrors() or die ("unable to creat instance of app errors") ;
                     }          $errhandler->add($user_id->get_error_message(),"my_wp_class->add_user") or  die("unable to add record to errors - $user_id");;

            }

?>

    me again
    my issue has been resolved..for those who are looking to run wordpress function from external php files..they have to write this 3 lines in the beginning of their php file

    define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);
require_once (dirname (dirname (__FILE__)) . '/websitefoldername/wp-blog-header.php');
require_once (dirname (dirname (__FILE__)) . '/websitefoldername/wp-includes/registration.php');

    NOTE
    Please change websitefoldername to your site folder name
    after this they can run any wordpress function..
    I am creating users using this technique
