ID: 14251 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: se at e-kazan dot ru -Status: Analyzed +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Linux Mandrake 8.0 PHP Version: 4.1.0 Assigned To: zeev New Comment: It's Apache that changes the pwd, not PHP. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-12 08:19:19] x at x dot anon It's very serios bug. Try this samle and try to find out 'out.txt' file. <? set_time_limit(0); ignore_user_abort(0); function Test() { $fp = fopen ('out.txt', 'w'); fwrite ($fp, 'TEST');; fclose ($fp); }; register_shutdown_function ("Test"); ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-19 21:07:31] sniper@php.net IIRC (!) this was some problem with the cwd funcs in TSRM. Can't remember now what exactly it was.. (it works in windows but not in *nix) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-19 11:08:13] zeev@php.net This isn't related to #11831. It has to do with the fact that by the time we're shutting down, we're no longer in the request context, but rather, in Apache's shutdown context. Apache is probably changing directory to / at this stage. I'm not sure why this is tagged as critical, I'm not sure whether this should be 'fixed'. My recommendation is to move it to 'Analyzed' status. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-03 18:35:56] sniper@php.net Another one related to #11831 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-05 16:48:02] john at vbulletin dot com I have reproduced this too on PHP 4.2.2 and Linux RH 6.2. However it does not seem to occur in Windows. Workaround by putting getcwd() into a global variable before shutdown then using chdir() in the shutdown_function. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
