Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60636&edit=1 ID: 60636 Updated by: laruence@php.net Reported by: fernando at consultorpc dot com Summary: Dots in folders results in a open_basedir restriction warning Status: Open Type: Bug Package: Safe Mode/open_basedir Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.3.8 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: does that /home/example exists? I think this might has nothing to do with the *dot*, but a mis-understand warning. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-01-02 13:56:27] fernando at consultorpc dot com Description: ------------ If you try to access a file within a folder that has a dot, an open_basedir restriction warning will show up even if the folder is in the allowed paths list. Test script: --------------- <?php // Set open_basedir allowed paths to /home/example:/usr/lib/php:/tmp file_exists('/home/example/public_html/myfolder.example/file.php'); // This results in a open_basedir restriction warning Expected result: ---------------- No warning should show up and i should be able to access the file normally. Actual result: -------------- The test script results in: PHP Warning: file_exists() [<a href='function.file-exists'>function.file- exists</a>]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/example/public_html/myfolder.example/file.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/example:/usr/lib/php:/tmp) in /home/example/public_html/test.php on line 3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60636&edit=1
