Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=74818&edit=1 ID: 74818 Comment by: spam2 at rhsoft dot net Reported by: jerry at jmweb dot net Summary: opcache.file_cache should not require drive letter paths Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: opcache Operating System: Windows 7 64bit PHP Version: 7.1.6 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: "default to the drive which the PHP binary is running" is a adventurous conclusion just because *normally* relative paths are not defaulting to drives *but* to the current working directory and that is a dangerous thing for systemdwide paths "managing identical PHP installs across Windows and Linux" should be done with don#t put anything system specific at all in php.ini - that's what "--with-config-file-scan-dir=" is all about and that options belong in a include file there what you are asking is a dirty workaround for bad systems management - see the paragraph above Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-06-26 17:02:26] jerry at jmweb dot net Description: ------------ opcache.file_cache should not require drive lettered paths. There are several ini path options that do not require drive letter prefixes in their values. The few that I am aware of include: error_log extension_dir sys_temp_dir upload_tmp_dir session.save_path The impementation of each of the settings above are 'smart' enough to default to the drive which the PHP binary is running. This flexibility is appreciated when managing identical PHP installs across Windows and Linux as it minimizes the number of exclusive ini options (in separate files) required to maintain both. Test script: --------------- opcache.file_cache=/WAMP/php/ini Expected result: ---------------- Opcache should not fail and default to C:/WAMP/php/ini in Windows or /WAMP/php/ini in Linux. The drive letter (in Windows) should default to the drive the PHP binary is currently running in. Actual result: -------------- Fatal Error opcache.file_cache_only is set without a proper setting of opcache.file_cache ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=74818&edit=1
