Other variations on this code (eg calling getcwd() from an ob_start() callback) appear to give similar results. The code works fine from the command line (ie produces the expected result). I've configured PHP with the following, and still been able to reproduce the result: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/packages/php-4.3.2 --with-apxs=/usr/local/packages/apache-1.3.27/bin/apxs I've also reproduced this problem on a Solaris box, also running Apache 1.3.27. Reproduce code: --------------- <?PHP print "current time is '".strftime("%D %T")."'<br>\n"; print "(in main) cwd is '".getcwd()."'<br>\n"; register_shutdown_function("atexit"); function atexit() { print "(in callback) cwd is '".getcwd()."'<br>\n"; } ?> Expected result: ---------------- Something like: current time is '06/30/03 18:39:24' (in main) cwd is '/home/steveb/public_html/callbacktest' (in callback) cwd is '/home/steveb/public_html/callbacktest' Actual result: -------------- actual results vary, here's two. All I did in between them was press 'reload'... output 1: --------- current time is '06/30/03 18:59:24' (in main) cwd is '/home/steveb/public_html/callbacktest' (in callback) cwd is '/home/www/vhosts/nutter.spoo.org/htdocs' output 2: --------- current time is '06/30/03 18:59:34' (in main) cwd is '/home/steveb/public_html/callbacktest' (in callback) cwd is '/home/steveb/public_html' The values returned by getcwd() appear to be related to previous pages that have been served by apache (not necessarily ones that have been processed by PHP). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=24420&edit=1
