Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=79557&edit=1 ID: 79557 Comment by: laurinkeithdavis at gmail dot com Reported by: laurinkeithdavis at gmail dot com Summary: extension_dir = "./ext" now use current directory for base Status: Assigned Type: Bug Package: Dynamic loading Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 7.4.5 Assigned To: cmb Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Interesting. I looked through the source and it appears that the patch added for the previous bug still exists, but I don't know C well enough to understand how "ext" would be treated differently from "./ext". Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2020-05-04 09:01:50] cmb@php.net I can confirm the reported behavior. Using "ext" instead of "./ext" works, though. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2020-05-02 15:38:19] laurinkeithdavis at gmail dot com Description: ------------ 7.4 on Windows, the issue of the working directory being used instead of the base directory appears to be happening again.
