Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $db = dbase_open('12MU2500G.dbf', 0); echo $db ? "Opened.\n" : "Not opened.\n"; ?> Expected result: ---------------- Opened. Actual result: -------------- Unable to get header Warning: dbase_open(): unable to open database 12MU2500G.dbf in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/shape/dbase_open_bug.php on line 2 Not opened. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=38357&edit=1
