[PHP-DOC] #21975 [NEW]: document safe_mode/open_basedir gotchas From: philip <email protected>
Date: 01/30/03

From: philip <email protected>
Operating system: all
PHP version: 4.3.0
PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem
Bug description: document safe_mode/open_basedir gotchas

This bug report is where we list quirks, concerns, BC breaks, uses, and
general gotchas that stem from either safe mode or open_basedir.
Information that everyone from sysadmin's to newbie users should know.

For example, a potential safe_mode gotcha:

  - As of PHP 4.3.0, the PHP_AUTH_* variables are NOT
    available in PHP when both an external auth mechanism
    exists and PHP is in safe mode. Note: REMOTE_USER is
    available regardless.

There are others that belong in this bug report and eventually in the
docs. Regarding open_basedir, there is a recent (4.3.0) PHP change
regarding both upload_dir and include_path but I'm not sure what they are
exactly ... hopefully this bug report will know soon ;) And there are
others.

open_basedir and safe mode are documented here:
  - phpdoc/{lang}/features/safe-mode.xml
