ID: 48535 Updated by: pajoye@php.net Reported By: tobias dot burger at rolmail dot net Status: Feedback Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: win32 only - Windows Server 2008 PHP Version: 5.3.0RC3 Assigned To: pajoye New Comment: realpath works here (all tests machine) with symlink. Do you have an example (path used, dir or files?, etc.) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-16 06:59:38] tobias dot burger at rolmail dot net Now it works! But realpath doesn't work for symlinked pathes anymore (it returns false). Tried the RC3 realease again and there it works. Has it something to do with the actual fix or should I open a new bug submission? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-15 17:02:37] pajoye@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5.3-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://windows.php.net/snapshots/ A fix has been applied to 5.3, please try it ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-12 10:17:12] pajoye@php.net thanks for the update, I have to figure out what's wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-12 10:15:38] tobias dot burger at rolmail dot net I've set the setting fastcgi.impersonate in php.ini to 1 (like recommendet in the documentation). If I set it to 0 it works. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-12 09:58:19] pajoye@php.net I use 2008 as well and it works fine. Can you add perms for your user specifically and test again? take #2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
