Nope. The problem is that "include ../foobar.inc" does not find
foobar.inc in the parent directory, which is contrary behaviour to
4.2.3

So the problem is that 'require("/foobar.php");' does not find foobar
under the current working dir?? If so, this really is not a bug but the
correct behaviour.

Iliaa - see Nov 29 message.

Can you please include the error message that you get?

Now that you have given us the info, we can resolve the problem, for
free.
Instead of complaining, you could just contribute your obviously
superior knowledge of windows and help us fix it.
Keep the attitude out of the reports please.

My reply from the 26th:
Hi Iliaa,
OK, looks like you need further information to find this one. I would
add further comments but bugs.php.net is frozen right now when
attempting to edit bug reports.
Let's take the following piece of code:
-------------
<?
/* application.php */
/* turn on verbose error reporting */
error_reporting(15);
/* define a generic object */
class object {};
/* setup the configuration object */
$CFG = new object;
$CFG->dbhost = "localhost";
$CFG->dbname = "mymarket";
$CFG->dbuser = "myuser";
$CFG->dbpass = "mypassword";
$CFG->wwwroot = "/Commerce/mymarket3";
$CFG->dirroot = "";
$CFG->templatedir = "$CFG->dirroot/templates";
$CFG->libdir = "$CFG->dirroot/lib";
$CFG->imagedir = "$CFG->wwwroot/images";
$CFG->wordlist = "$CFG->libdir/wordlist.txt";
$CFG->support = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
/* define database error handling behavior, since we are in
development
* we will turn on all the debugging messages to help us troubleshoot
*/
$DB_DEBUG = true;
$DB_DIE_ON_FAIL = true;
/* load up standard libraries */
require("$CFG->libdir/stdlib.php");
require("$CFG->libdir/dblib.php");
require("$CFG->libdir/mymarket.php");
require("$CFG->libdir/cart.php");
----------------------
In 4.2.3 this will work fine, whilst in 4.3.0RC1 you'll get an error
on
the line:
require("$CFG->libdir/stdlib.php");
That's because there will be a slash prepended where it wasn't there
before.
Note that '$CFG->libdir' is made from '$CFG->dirroot' plus '/lib'.
With
'$CFG->dirroot' being empty this should resolve to no leading slash,
which was correct in 4.2.3 but now isn't. Otherwise there's no way to
include a relative path.
I'd get in and fix this myself but I've spent far too many years
repairing other people's broken code for free, and since this is my
profession it doesn't make sense to do that any more. But a pointer on
where the error might be ... if you're using Cygwin and changed
versions, that's probably it. Get rid of it before you go blind and
use
MSVC 5.0 or later, it works. Really.
