ID: 38827 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: kore@php.net -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Directory function related Operating System: Solaris 8 PHP Version: 5.2.0RC3 New Comment: Actually it doesn't work on ALL systems because of this: open_basedir = ' value ' is not the same as open_basedir = "value" Pay attention to this part of the error message: File(/path/htdocs/var/testdir) is not within the allowed path(s):------->('/path/htdocs:/path/var')<-------- Apparently /path/htdocs/var/testdir IS NOT within the "'/path/htdocs" directory.
