Bug description: Re: Include not working problem
Description:
------------
Tony,
I tried to reply to the original ticket but your system is not
remembering my password, 's00per' correctly. I am certain I used that,
because I pasted it in from notepad after saving it in a file with no
newlines.
Thank you for your help, but if your answer is correct, then my
scripts should have worked.
You said:
"Files for including are first looked in include_path relative to the
current working directory and then in include_path relative to the
directory
of current script."
The current working directory and script in my example was
(PROTECTED)
I appended to the include_path ./ws
This means that the include_once '../inc/incfile.php' which happened
inside
of ws/wsfile.php should have been looked at from the perspective of
(PROTECTED)/ws at least once but it wasn't.
Did you look at the examples I provided you?
--Original Message--
Including a file using a relative path after INI SETTING the include_path
does not work.
Setting the include_path works, but but PHP does not use it correctly.
This is a major flaw in the include logic.
A full detailed example is listed under the "Reproduce code" section.
Reproduce code:
---------------
[john@(PROTECTED) error]$ cat mainfile.php
<?
$include_path = ini_get('include_path');
$include_path .= ':./ws:'; //this doesn't even work with an absolute path
ini_set('include_path', $include_path);
include 'ws/wsfile.php';
print "Hi! I'm mainfile!\n";
?>
[john@(PROTECTED) error]$ cat ws/wsfile.php
<?
include_once '../inc/incfile.php';
print "Hi! I'm wsfile!\n";
?>
[john@(PROTECTED) error]$ cat inc/incfile.php
<?
print "Hi! I'm incfile!\n";
?>
[john@(PROTECTED) error]$ php mainfile.php
Warning: main(../inc/incfile.php): failed to open stream: No such file or
directory in /(PROTECTED)/john/error/ws/wsfile.php on line 2
Warning: main(): Failed opening '../inc/incfile.php' for inclusion
(include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php:./ws:') in
/(PROTECTED)/john/error/ws/wsfile.php on line 2
Hi! I'm wsfile!
Hi! I'm mainfile!
Expected result:

--Original Expected Result--
The INI SET works, but include_once, as well as the others, do not work
correctly. It can't find the relatively included file...even though the
INI include_path is set.
The code should work because the include path has been set properly.
Even
the error output shows the right include path, but the include_once
directive just fails.
Actual result:
--------------
[john@(PROTECTED) error]$ php mainfile.php
Warning: main(../inc/incfile.php): failed to open stream: No such file or
directory in /(PROTECTED)/john/error/ws/wsfile.php on line 2
Warning: main(): Failed opening '../inc/incfile.php' for inclusion

/(PROTECTED)/john/error/ws/wsfile.php on line 2
Hi! I'm wsfile!
Hi! I'm mainfile!
