From: msong at targetcastnetworks dot com Operating system: Window XP PHP version: 5.2.9RC2 PHP Bug Type: *Directory/Filesystem functions Bug description: realpath() returns null for the apache alias directory
Description: ------------ I try to use the realpath() call to get the absolute file path for a file. The file is located on the directory that was specified as a apache alias directory. Following is the alias set up in Apache httpd.conf: Alias /tctv/testimages "//192.168.1.125/tcshare/Logs/images" <Directory "//192.168.1.125/tcshare/Logs/images"> Options Indexes FollowSymlinks MultiViews AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> Here is the php snippet to make a realpath() call: <? ... echo "realpath=" . realpath("./testimages") . "<BR>"; ... ?> I do expect it returns "//192.168.1.125/tcshare/Logs/images", however, it returns null. I will appreciate if someone can help me on this. -Mike Reproduce code: --------------- Alias /tctv/testimages "//192.168.1.125/tcshare/Logs/images" <Directory "//192.168.1.125/tcshare/Logs/images"> Options Indexes FollowSymlinks MultiViews AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> Here is the php snippet to make a realpath() call: <? ... echo "realpath=" . realpath("./testimages") .
