PHP 4.0 Bug #175 Updated: ~user where file not in home

ID: 175 Updated by: jimw Reported By: ars@ziplink.net Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Assigned To: Comments: this is handled by your web server, not php. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1998-03-14 21:18:42] ars@ziplink.net One my web server the users home doesn't exist, it is only mounted from the shell machine, the web server can't see it. Web file are instead in a different directory (which is ln -s'd from home). This makes ~user useless. My request? user_base this, if empty causes the <user's home>/user_dir to be used, if not empty then when ~foo/bar is recieved, user_base/foo/user_dir/bar is used. i.e. it's the base where user directories are to be found. (It can also be set to /not or something like that to essentially disable ~ since no ~ files will be found since /not doesn't exist.) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION!
