Bug #17390 Updated: dump_file doesn't work if path is not absolute

ID: 17390 Updated by: rrichards@digarc.com Reported By: sysadmin@alexdupre.com Status: Open Bug Type: DOM XML related Operating System: FreeBSD and Windows 2000 PHP Version: 4.0CVS-2002-05-23 New Comment: this is a possible apache2 problem (BSD running apache2). when run with apache 1.3 it works correctly. unable to test with apache 2 now to confirm. the windows issue was due to the libxml version. once upgraded it works fine.

If the path passed to the function is relative, the file is not saved anywhere (first issue) and the function returns anyway the number of bytes written (second issue). From the sources it seems that dump_file simply calls xmlSaveFile from libxml2, so maybe a path check should be done before the call. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=17390&edit=1
