Req #40661 [Opn]: cwd is reset when shutdown handler runs

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=40661&edit=1 ID: 40661 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: derick@php.net Summary: cwd is reset when shutdown handler runs Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Apache related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.2.5 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: > Making sure this doesn't slip through the cracks.. Didn't work. :) While it shouldn't be hard to restore the CWD during the shutdown handler, I wonder whether we should do it. After that long time, most code likely has adapted to do this manually (or doesn't use relative paths in the first place), and some code may even use the CWD reset on purpose (BC break). Anyhow, this change is unlikely to happen, unless somebody submits a PR.

That is what I would expect to happen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-02-27 14:54:34] tony2001@php.net See http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=36529 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-02-27 14:44:41] derick@php.net Description: ------------ When this script is run with the Apache1 sapi the second CWD is reset to /.
