#19291 [Fbk->Opn]: Include file failure with PHP 4.2.3

ID: 19291 User updated by: fillmore@NRCan.gc.ca Reported By: fillmore@NRCan.gc.ca -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Solaris 8 PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: I will try to set up a proper test environment for this. Note that this application uses relative path includes- the file _lib.php exists in some directories but not others, so just issuing an error will mess up the application. Using absolute paths for the includes is a bit messy, because they would have to be dynamically built by parsing the URL each time. However, thanks for the suggestion. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-08 12:50:28] wez@php.net Sounds like a dup of #19287 (file_exists fails). Can you amend your script like this: if(file_exists("_lib.php")){ require_once("_lib.php"); } else { trigger_error("_lib.php does not exist!"); } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-08 12:25:45] kalowsky@php.net requireversion? did you mean phpversion? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-08 10:24:57] fillmore@NRCan.gc.ca Some PHP scripts that worked fine in 4.2.2 now fail in 4.2.3 with a message: "Fatal error: Call to undefined function: requireversion() in /home1/fast1/WWW-data/ess/_ess.php on line 11" The file _ess.php is included in the main file index_e.php as follows: require_once("_ess.php"); The "requireversion" function is defined in the file _lib.php, which is included in the file _ess.php as follows: if(file_exists("_lib.php")){ require_once("_lib.php"); } //this requires version 4.2+ requireversion('4.2'); We are using the NSAPI (iPlanet 4.x) version of PHP.
