Severity: Cosmetic for error reporting

PHP Fatal error:  input in flex scanner failed in <directoryname>

When doing a:
8<----------------
include("/tmp/");
---------------->8

For instance will produce above error, maybe a "You can't include directories" would be nice?

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged
every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can
grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/.
 
In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at
http://www.php.net/manual/.

In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

This error also appears with other functions. More specifically I've experienced it with the parse_ini_file() function. I do not have access to test it with PHP CVS version, do I don't know wether it has been fixed for just the include function, or all functions affected by this problem.

We get the problem intermittently.  We run our websites from NFS and if the file read fails it comes up with this message.  Only when doing includes though.

I agree with the better error message comment :)

Btw, we are using PHP 4.3.2 so it's still a current problem.

Drop me an e-mail if you want any further details.

Hi,

I have received that type of error (2 actually).

Please go to http://www.bullmarket.com.au/affiliates/user/signup.php

I am very new to PHP and I am having trouble isolating the issue. Any help you can offer would be great.

Cheers,

Alan

I recived the bug when i did an include after a db-query. After that i begann whit the query and then the include which would work.

I'dont know why but maybe this helps to find the bug.

input in flex scanner failed in <directory> error can also appear, if you don't have proper (usualy write) permissions on your server...
