1.0.0a2 upgrade.php on Solaris

[ibirrer]

Hello,

When I try to run the upgrade.php on solaris I get the following error message:

Warning: main(): Unable to access ./core.php in ./upgrade_inc.php on line 14

Warning: main(./core.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in ./upgrade_inc.php on line 14

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required './core.php' (include_path='.:/home/ifaweb/lib/php_includes:') in ./upgrade_inc.php on line 14

It seems to be related to the following php bug:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=13936

Thanks for any help!
Iwan

Thanks. I'm not sure what we can do about this. There are many places where we need to find files relative to the absolute path root of the installation. The use of __FILE__ needs to work.

Could you check to see if "<?php echo $_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"] ?>" returns the absolute path of the test file?

[ibirrer]

<?php echo $_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"] ?> returns the absolute path correctly. However if I replace __FILE__ in upgrade_inc.php another error occurs:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare php_version_at_least() (previously declared in /home/ceg/public_html/mantis_new/core/php_api.php:22) in ../core/php_api.php on line 22


P.S version 0.19.2 of mantis works without problems

One more note:

If I use __FILE__ in an included file it returns the relative path if it is used directly in the processed php file it returns the absolute path.

Comments in http://ch2.php.net/constants also say that different versions of php return either the absolute or relative path to the script file.

So this is probably not only a problem on solaris.
