note 108540 added to function.ini-set

Open_basedir is a tricky one. Subsequent calls of ini_set('open_basedir', ...) will only succeed if you either leave the value unchanged, take out a directory from the list completely, or narrow a directory. Also, you cannot add a directory to the list not already within the tightened open_basedir value. <?php ini_set('open_basedir', '/var/www/my_app/:/var/www/framework/'); // success if not yet set ini_set('open_basedir', '/var/www/my_app/:/var/www/framework/'); // success still ini_set('open_basedir', '/var/www/my_app/somepath/:/var/www/framework/'); // success ini_set('open_basedir', '/var/www/my_app/somepath/'); // success ini_set('open_basedir', '/var/www/my_app/'); // fails completely ini_set('open_basedir', '/var/www/my_app/somepath/:/var/www/framework/'); // fails completely ?> ---- Server IP: 192.41.42.26 Probable Submitter: 173.37.200.9 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ini-set.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/108540 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108540/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108540/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108540/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108540/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108540/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108540/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108540 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/108540 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
