note 57061 added to function.passthru

When upgrading my redhat server to enterprise 4, selinux was turned on. This caused one of my php scripts (that uses passthru) to fail. After some nice help from redhat, I was able to get the script running again. Here is what helped me. If you get permission errors (in /var/log/httpd/error_log) which seem to be from selinux (and not standard chmod or chown issues), make sure that the folder you are using is not in /tmp and has the selinux context of httpd_sys_script_rw_t as can be set as follows: chcon -t httpd_sys_script_rw_t folder_name Hope this helps someone... ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.passthru.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+57061 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57061&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57061&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57061&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57061&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57061&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57061&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57061&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+57061&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
