Reason ====== echo realpath('/var/www/localhost/htdocs/mypages/'); in PHP <= 5.2.2 works, but in PHP 5.2.3 causes openbase_dir restriction error with something like "You have not access to /var/www/localhost/htdocs/mypages' (it's because the final slash is missing) the openbase_dir in php.ini is set to "/var/www/localhost/htdocs/mypages/", function realpath will cut the final slash and this will lead to error. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php echo 'It's described above =)'; ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41767&edit=1
