Both make sense, but if it's the latter then there's no way to turn the open_basedir restriction off, other than '/'. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-15 13:20:25] sniper@php.net I tested that now, and indeed, it doesn't work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-15 13:18:13] sniper@php.net So this bug's summary should be: "'php_admin_value open_basedir none' does not work" ??? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-15 13:02:19] root@mediamonks.net Actually, I added a comment to 19292 about my problem and it was deleted as not being appropriate there. I am not having trouble with random open_basedir errors, I'm having one simple problem. I have a default open_basedir of '/var/www/' in my php.ini and I used to turn off ('allow all files to be opened') for a particular vhost by setting open_basedir to '/'. Whether this wastes resources I don't know and actually I don't care too, because it does what I want. Starting with 4.3.0 I can't use '/' as open_basedir anymore for some reason, and imo it wasn't thought about properly because it creates contradictory error messages like: [Warning: Unknown(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/var/www/host.example.com/root/admin/phpinfo.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/) in Unknown on line 0] But I couldn't care less if there was an equivalent for setting open_basedir to '/'. Because all I need is to turn off open_basedir for a particular vhost. And I tried setting open_basedir to none, 'none' and "none", but this just leaves the default of '/var/www' in effect. So I'm guessing that the 'none' setting isn't working properly as I would think that it should turn off the open_basedir restriction for the vhost. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
