There is nothing wrong with PHP here, its working as intended. I suggest you stop relying on __FILE__ if you intend to use an opcode cache.

This is especially evident with op-code caches such as APC. So __FILE__ either needs to be determined at runtime, or a runtime accessible alternative needs to be provided. I propose $_SERVER['PHP_FILE'], and would like documentation updated to recommend people use it rather than __FILE__. Obviously, __DIR__ would need the $_SERVER['PHP_DIR'] variable for the same reasons. Reproduce code: --------------- CURRENTLY: /1/test.php: <?php require(__DIR__ . '/testDest.php'); ?> /2/test.php created by "cp -l ../1/test.php" /1/testDest.php: <?php echo 1; ?> /2/testDest.php: <?php echo 2; ?> PROPOSED: /1/test.php: <?php require($_SERVER['PHP_DIR'] . '/testDest.php'); ?> /2/test.php created by "cp -l ../1/test.php" /1/testDest.php: <?php echo 1; ?> /2/testDest.php: <?php echo 2; ?> Expected result: ---------------- /1/test.php displays "1", and /2/test.php displays "2" Actual result: -------------- CURRENTLY: When running APC, both scripts will return the results of whichever one you hit first. PROPOSED: When running APC, /1/test.php displays "1", and /2/test.php displays "2" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45421&edit=1
