PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Bug description: Relative includes from symlinked directories fail
Description:
------------
include statement seems to resolve the current working directory other
than the rest of php so if I am in a symlinked directory an try to include
a file using a relative path (containing ../), the include fails because
the original path of the script is used to resolve the relative include and
not the path the script is invoked from.
Reproduce code:
---------------
Asume the following files/directory structure:
Directory /test1
Directory /htdocs
Directory /htdocs/docs
Symlink /htdocs/test2 -> /test1
File /test1/index.php
File /htdocs/docs/docs.inc.php
DocumentRoot is /htdocs
File-Contents of /test1/index.php
<?php
include("../docs/docs.inc.php");
// ... other code
?>
Expected result:
----------------
No error, output generated by code after the include
Actual result:
--------------
An error: failed to open stream: No such file or directory
(/test1/index.php:2)
