#44340 [Opn->Bgs]: Openbasedir and symlinks

ID: 44340 Updated by: iliaa@php.net Reported By: nahuel dot angelinetti at revues dot org -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Safe Mode/open_basedir Operating System: Debian etch PHP Version: 5.2.5 New Comment: Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php The link itself is outside of the allowable dir, hence the error.

Actual result: -------------- It say I'm out of the openbasedir, but the link isn't. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44340&edit=1
