From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: MandrakeLinux 8.0. PHP version: 4.0.4pl1 PHP Bug Type: Directory function related Bug description: Require() function malfunction across directories I have just installed MandrakeLinux 8.0. I have a PHP program that contains the following require() function --> require($PS_BASE.'modules/core/lib/ps_page_open.inc'); <-- This require() picks up code outside my web tree for security reasons. When executed I get the following error --> Fatal error: Failed opening required '/home/phpshop/phpshop- core/modules/core/lib/ps_page_open.inc' (include_path='') in /var/www/html/admin/prepend.php on line 14. <-- If I execute the require(), pointing at the same directory as the requesting program, it works just fine. What do I need to do to execute a require() against code outside of my web tree. What product would be causing the problem? (Mandrake, PHP, Apache, ...). -- Edit bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=12171&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
