PHP 4.0 Bug #5674 Updated: Relative paths don't work

ID: 5674 Updated by: zak Reported By: amour@centras.lt Old-Status: Assigned Status: Closed Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Assigned To: zak Comments: User reports that bug disappeared several versions ago. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-08-31 11:32:12] zak@php.net Another Update from cynic: Update: relative paths work on php4-200008310545 with apache-1.3_20000831101201. It's clear the problem was with the cut-down readdir.h. However, PHP still fails to build unless one comments out the definition of mode_t in %apachedir%/src/os/win32/os.h. Also, the abovementioned snapshot reports itself as 4.0.2 (no -dev suffix). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-08-31 11:24:22] zak@php.net More information from cynic@mail.cz Hi. I found out relative paths work with 4.0.2 DSO on Apache 1.3.12. And though I don't know the mechanism behind it, I found what has probably made the difference. As of 4 months ago win32 DSO PHP4 stopped building. The hack I was told to use was to delete everything but #include calls from <apache>/src/os/win32/readdir.h before building PHP. The original readdir.h from the 1.3.12 source looks like this: /* * Structures and types used to implement opendir/readdir/closedir * on Windows 95/NT. */ #include <io.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/types.h> #ifndef API_EXPORT # define API_EXPORT(type) __declspec(dllexport) type __stdcall #endif /* struct dirent - same as Unix */ struct dirent { long d_ino; /* inode (always 1 in WIN32) */ off_t d_off; /* offset to this dirent */ unsigned short d_reclen; /* length of d_name */ char d_name[_MAX_FNAME+1]; /* filename (null terminated) */ }; /* typedef DIR - not the same as Unix */ typedef struct { long handle; /* _findfirst/_findnext handle */ short offset; /* offset into directory */ short finished; /* 1 if there are not more files */ struct _finddata_t fileinfo; /* from _findfirst/_findnext */ char *dir; /* the dir we are reading */ struct dirent dent; /* the dirent to return */ } DIR; /* Function prototypes */ API_EXPORT(DIR *) opendir(const char *); API_EXPORT(struct dirent *) readdir(DIR *); API_EXPORT(int) closedir(DIR *); which I trimmed to this: /* * Structures and types used to implement opendir/readdir/closedir * on Windows 95/NT. */ #include <io.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/types.h> With this readdir.h, relative paths work in 4.0.2 DSO. In the post 1.3.12 snapshot I tried (apache-1_3_20000825161201), readdir.h changed: /* * Structures and types used to implement opendir/readdir/closedir * on Windows 95/NT. */ #ifndef APACHE_READDIR_H #define APACHE_READDIR_H #include <io.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/types.h> #ifndef API_EXPORT # define API_EXPORT(type) __declspec(dllexport) type __stdcall #endif /* struct dirent - same as Unix */ struct dirent { long d_ino; /* inode (always 1 in WIN32) */ off_t d_off; /* offset to this dirent */ unsigned short d_reclen; /* length of d_name */ char d_name[_MAX_FNAME+1]; /* filename (null terminated) */ }; /* typedef DIR - not the same as Unix */ typedef struct { long handle; /* _findfirst/_findnext handle */ short offset; /* offset into directory */ short finished; /* 1 if there are not more files */ struct _finddata_t fileinfo; /* from _findfirst/_findnext */ char *dir; /* the dir we are reading */ struct dirent dent; /* the dirent to return */ } DIR; /* Function prototypes */ API_EXPORT(DIR *) opendir(const char *); API_EXPORT(struct dirent *) readdir(DIR *); API_EXPORT(int) closedir(DIR *); #endif /* ndef APACHE_READDIR_H */ I cut this down to what's below, and relative paths didn't work anymore. I'm no C programmer, so this is probably all the help I can provide. Well, I can compile and test more snapshots if needed. /* * Structures and types used to implement opendir/readdir/closedir * on Windows 95/NT. */ #ifndef APACHE_READDIR_H #define APACHE_READDIR_H #include <io.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/types.h> #endif /* ndef APACHE_READDIR_H */ As for compile-time errors, both builds yielded just the usual bunch of benign macro redefinitions and maybe some signed/unsigned int comparisions.

Relative paths worked for me with a two weeks old snapshot, and stopped working a week ago. It still doesn't work with php4-200008290145, unchanged php.ini-optimized.
