ID: 35301 User updated by: bgshea at gmail dot com Reported By: bgshea at gmail dot com Status: Bogus Bug Type: Safe Mode/open_basedir Operating System: Linux 2.6 PHP Version: 5.0.5 New Comment:
Indeed, you are correct, the fact that 0.inc does not exist in the dir causes the failure, the bug seems to be in the documentation on how to use open_basedir. I overlooked a previous bug report (Bug #30188). For all that read these bugs, you need to check for file existance (file_exists(/path/to/file) ). Maybe the open_basedir should be called something else cause it is mis-leading if it also dis-allows on a file by file basis. I'm gonna post this in the docs as well. Thanks for the little bit help.

An existing bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely to be the same. Thank you for your interest in PHP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-20 08:46:47] bgshea at gmail dot com Description: ------------ [Sun Nov 20 00:36:12 2005] [error] [client 68.35.85.123] PHP Warning: readfile() [<a href='function.readfile'>function.readfile</a\ >]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/bgshea/g2data/cache/module/core/0/0/0.inc) is not within the allowed path(s): (/\ mnt/sdc1/pub/www/:/usr/local/php-5.0.5/lib/:/mnt/sdc1/home/:/mnt/sdc1/pub/webfiles/) in /mnt/sdc1/home/bgshea/webpage/fopen.php on \ line 12, referer: http://www.hackthebox.org/~bgshea/ NOTE: /home is a symlink to /mnt/sdc1/home This is my first bug report, so if this does not post right, I'm sorry. BTW: I've spent 5 hours trying to fix this, looked at all bugs related to open_basedir and could not figure this out. Reproduce code: --------------- //Test a file open under /home/ works $file=fopen("/home/bgshea/webpage/info.php", "r" ); fclose( $file ); //test a file read under /home/bgshea/g2data, works readfile( "/home/bgshea/g2data/install.log" ); //This should work, but fails. Why? no symlinks here. readfile("/home/bgshea/g2data/cache/module/core/0/0/0.inc"); open_basedir was set in httpd.conf to be /mnt/sdc1/pub/www/:/usr/local/php-5.0.5/lib/:/mnt/sdc1/home/:/mnt/sdc1/pub/webfiles/ Expected result: ---------------- /home/bgshea/g2data/cache/module/core/0/0/0.inc file should be opened Actual result: -------------- Error message reported in log file, php script is terminated ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=35301&edit=1
