From: tonicpeddler@cs.com Operating system: Windows XP PHP version: 4.2.0 PHP Bug Type: Filesystem function related Bug description: FILE Function Checks Wrong Path When I call: $data = file( "database.txt" ); From my file "c:\xitami\webpages\db\database.php", php doesn't check "c:\xitami\webpages\db\" for database.txt, instead it returns an error saying that "database.txt" doesn't exist in the directory "c:\xitami\webpages\db\database.php" I beleive this may be a bug, since it shouldn't be including the name of the php script in the directory. In the mean time I am specifying an absolute filename for database.txt, however I'd much prefer the modularity of relative file access. If you fix it, that's great, I hope someone contacts me. In that case could someone tell me where to download a prebuilt binary? I'm on dialup and a pretty slow machine, not very interested in downloading the source code again, and building, again. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=16875&edit=1 -- Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=16875&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=16875&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=16875&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=16875&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=16875&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=16875&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=16875&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=16875&r=submittedtwice
