Bug #16409 Updated: include_once includes multiple times

ID: 16409 Updated by: michael@janneck.de Reported By: michael@janneck.de -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Filesystem function related Operating System: Mac OS X 10.1.3 PHP Version: 4.1.2 New Comment: I installed the update and it still did not work for me. I then looked where there might be a problem with my installation and finally found, that the problem occurs, if the webserver does not have read access to all directories on the path to the script file. I had my home dir set to rwx--x--x for privacy reasons. Giving read-access for the world, solved the problem. I don't know if there is a way to solve this problem, but it is definitely not nice, that the functions do not work correctly depending on access rights. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-06 12:31:08] markonen@php.net I cannot reproduce this on either the Apple-supplied PHP 4.1.2 or a fresh 4.3.0-dev build, running on the default Apache installation (1.3.22). realpath() also works as expected. Can you install Apple's new Security Update, which includes PHP 4.1.2? If it works for you, we can start narrowing down why it doesn't work on your custom PHP build. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-03 06:13:57] michael@janneck.de There is a bug with include_once including a file twice, if it is referenced once with a fully qualified path and once with only the filename (and the file being in the include path). This script illustrates what I mean: include_once('x.php'); include_once('/home/janneck/public_html/x.php'); On my Mac OS X 10.1.3, Apache 1.3.22, PHP 4.1.2 (also: 4.0.6) system, this results in x.php getting included twice. (It works as expected on RedHat 7.1, Apache 1.3.22, PHP 4.0.6.) doing "var_dump(get_included_files());" shows the following: array(2) { [0]=> string(6) "/x.php" [1]=> string(40) "/home/janneck/public_html/x.php" } This might be related to a problem with the "realpath()" function which does not work correctly but returns "" all the time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=16409&edit=1
