ID: 46395 Updated by: jani@php.net Reported By: ebosman at gmail dot com -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Directory function related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.2.6 New Comment: Try removing the . from your include_path setting. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-10-26 19:32:50] ebosman at gmail dot com I added 'echo __FILE__," ",getcwd(), "\n";' to each line: mkdir -p bug/subdir echo '<?php echo __FILE__," ",getcwd(), "\n"; require_once "../top1.inc"; ?>' > bug/subdir/sub.inc echo '<?php echo __FILE__," ",getcwd(), "\n"; require_once "sub.inc"; ?>' > bug/subdir/sub.php echo '<?php echo __FILE__," ",getcwd(), "\n"; require_once "subdir/sub.inc"; ?>' > bug/top.php echo '<?php echo __FILE__," ",getcwd(), "\n"; require_once "top2.inc"; ?>' > bug/top1.inc echo '<?php echo __FILE__," ",getcwd(), "\n"; ?>' > bug/top2.inc The output for subdir/sub.php: /var/www/bug/subdir/sub.php /var/www/bug/subdir /var/www/bug/subdir/sub.inc /var/www/bug/subdir /var/www/bug/top1.inc /var/www/bug/subdir /var/www/bug/top2.inc /var/www/bug/subdir and for top.php: /var/www/bug/top.php /var/www/bug /var/www/bug/subdir/sub.inc /var/www/bug (and htmlized:) Warning: require_once(../top1.inc) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/bug/subdir/sub.inc on line 1 Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '../top1.inc' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /var/www/bug/subdir/sub.inc on line 1 This would be consistent with the first include method (relative to the original file.) But in that case including top2.inc should fail, which it doesn't. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-10-26 18:57:32] jani@php.net Put 'echo getcwd(), "\n";' to each file before the require line. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-10-26 18:15:19] ebosman at gmail dot com Description: ------------ In the code pasted below: - top.php fails on subdir/sub.inc including "../top1.inc" - subdir/sub.php doesn't. Either every include should be relative to the original php file (which would be braindead, but consistent.) In that case both php files should fail (for subdir/sub.php the include of top2.inc by top1.inc should fail.) Or (and this is what I expected) include files should be relative to the file that is including. In which case both should succeed. Probably the same bug as http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=38302 , which is labeled bogus, so I had to create a new one. Reproduce code: --------------- mkdir -p bug/subdir echo '<?php require_once "../top1.inc" ?>' > bug/subdir/sub.inc echo '<?php require_once "sub.inc" ?>' > bug/subdir/sub.php echo '<?php require_once "subdir/sub.inc" ?>' > bug/top.php echo '<?php require_once "top2.inc" ?>' > bug/top1.inc touch bug/top2.inc Expected result: ---------------- Neither top.php nor subdir/sub.php should generate errors (or both should.) Actual result: -------------- Warning: require_once(../top1.inc) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/bug/subdir/sub.inc on line 1 Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '../top1.inc' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /var/www/bug/subdir/sub.inc on line 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46395&edit=1
