note 46276 added to ref.xslt

I've spent the last day tracking down a weird problem with Sablotron and the 4.3.6 PHP extension on Mac OS 10.3, and thought maybe I could save someone else the same hassle. I originally had a working installation and use the Sablotron XSLT extension for much of my site. Yesterday I tried to open a page and got a Sablotron error: Cannot open file '????/path/to/xslt/file' The question marks at the beginning weren't always question marks, but were always several gibberish characters. No matter what I tried I got this error. I looked into problems with text encodings (the only change being more interesting gibberish), reinstalled the OS, reinstalled PHP...nothing. Ultimately it looks like all directories on the path to the XSLT file must have read permissions for the Web server. My home directory didn't. As soon as I changed that, the problem went away. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.xslt.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+46276 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46276&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+46276&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
