Some additional info:
var_dump(getcwd(), realpath("."));
gives:
string(7) "c:\php5" string(7) "C:\php5"
As expected, when you give "List Folder Contents" permission (in
addition to read) to the web root folder both functions return the
correct path.

Description:
------------
Running PHP Version 5.3.3 (FastCgi, non-thread safe) on IIS6/Windows
Server 2003.
All file functions give error when relative paths are used and with
*only* Read permissions on the folder. e.g.
file_get_contents('./path/file.txt');
The above gives:
Warning: file_get_contents(./path/file.txt): failed to open stream: No
such file or directory
If you give the full path to the same file it works fine. i.e. the
follow works:
file_get_contents('C:/full/path/file.txt');
If you add "List Folder Contents" permission to the folder it starts to
work with relative folders as well.
I am guessing the when relative paths are used php tries to get some
information about the current folder which fails as the "List Folder
Contents" is not given. There is no need to "List Folder Contents" just
to read a file (even if the path is relative).
This bug has been reported before but not fixed:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=50163
Note: I had php (5.2) running as ISAPI before and didn't have this
problem. So it seems to be specific to non-thread safe version.
Test script:
---------------
file_get_contents('./path/file.txt');
Expected result:
----------------
No error
Actual result:
--------------
Warning: file_get_contents(./path/file.txt): failed to open stream: No
such file or directory
