ID: 21499 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Summary: include 'bogus' gives unfriendly error Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Status: Won't fix +Status: Open Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function Operating System: all PHP Version: 4.3.0 New Comment:
The fact that it provides two 404 links to a non-existent PHP function named main() is rather misleading and is not reasonable. I didn't call/use any function named main(), I used include(). Fact is, include() could not include the file because the file could not be opened. Simply "Failed opening foo for inclusion" is enough, like it used to be before php_error_docref. Linking to function.include would be fine too. IMHO this should remain open until someone fixes it. I would put php_error_docref in the summary but I really don't know the internals or if that's the problem. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-07 17:36:43] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since include is not a function but rather a language construct this is unlikely to be ever fixed. The error as is, imo is reasonably descriptive as it tells what action had failed and why. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-07 14:28:43] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This isn't a feature request Nicos, this is a bug. It refers/links to a non-existent function/page in the error. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-07 14:15:48] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reclassifing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-07 14:02:01] [EMAIL PROTECTED] <?php include 'foo' ?> Warning: main(foo) [function.main]: failed to create stream: No such file or directory in... Warning: main() [function.main]: Failed opening 'foo' for inclusion (include_path='.') in... Basically, this error could be a little nicer and in the very least link to function.include and not a non-existent function.main. This is the case with all the include/require constructs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21499&edit=1
