I may be experiencing a related problem with php.ini. It seems PHP does
not recognize subdirectories (Windows only?). For example, the
following is OK:

include_path = ".;C:\PHPinc;C:\Templates"

and the following is not OK:

include_path = ".;C:\PHPinc;C:\PHPinc\Templates"

I am running:

PHP 4.2.3
Windows 2000 Pro
Apache 1.3.27
Mod_SSL 2.8.11
OpenSSL 0.9.6g

DO NOT open more bug reports about this SAME issue.
Thank you.

All I want is only to make this bug "open", but not "bogus".
Now it is all right. Thank you.

Hello,

A lot of people work very hard on PHP for no money, there is a general
etiquette which is advisable to stick to when reporting a bug and that
is to be nice. Now I havnt looked at your other reports personally and
I dont know why they were marked as bogus (perhaps someone was tired,
could not understand exactly what you mean or for many other reasons)
and I appolgize for that, a better way to approach it is to ask why the
bug has been marked as bogus rather than ranting that it has. 

We deal with many bugs each day and have limited time thus those that
get fixed are those which either are highly important to us (If Im
affected by a bug Ill fix it myself I wont expect other people too) or
one that affects a lot of people. 

Remember you have not paid for PHP and are asking us to do work for you
for free. Now you have spent an hour fixing that bug and Ill have a
look at the patch now check it fixes it and does not break anything
else and if that is the case then it will be applied before the next
version and I thank you for your time, but I promise you it will still
use up at least 20 mins of my time (and IMHO my time is more important
to me than your time is).

So what I am saying is that yes you have a bug in PHP you want fixed
but dont expect it to happen straight away, localizing and fixing a bug
and checking its implications is a slow and boring game and we dont
always get it right but we do it for free so have a touch more patience
with us and we are likley to be more helpful.

Sorry to rant.

OK, if you cannot correct your own program without misleading words
(you said before TWICE that there is no bug, and it is the ONLY thing
disagreeable to me), get it:

php-4.2.3/TSRM/tsrm_virtual_cwd.h, line 56:

- #define IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH(path, len) \
-       (len >= 2 && isalpha(path[0]) && path[1] == ':')

+ #define IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH(path, len) \
+       (len >= 2 && isalpha(path[0]) && path[1] == ':') \
+       || (len >= 1 && IS_SLASH(path[0]))

This section is under #ifdef TSRM_WIN32 block (of course). 

I'm not a specialist in PHP core, so I have spent about an hour to find
bug location. Unfortunately I CANNOT stop on that, because our users
still download PHP from your site. I will be very glad if you correct
this bug in the next version (4.3.0 I suppose?).
