It should not matter, unless open_basedir is in effect, but that would be another error. I would check if the directories are right, you can start by using relative path. [/snip] It appears I've found the problem. I used passthru(ls -l [dirname],$ret) to start reading from /home all the way up through the following: /home/ /home/virtual/ /home/virtual/site357/ /home/virtual/site357/fst/ and all returned complete directory listings and a return code of 0. Now, when I read through /home/virtual/site357/fst/var/ /home/virtual/site357/fst/var/www/ /home/virtual/site357/fst/var/www/html/ I see the files that I would see when I SSH in and ls -l the following paths: /var/ /var/www/ /var/www/html/ HOWEVER, when I attempt the passthru call on /home/virtual/site357/fst/home/ I get no results back, and the return code is 1. So it appears scripts running under the apache user cannot access that folder or anything beneath it Any ideas? Cheers and TIA.
