Description:
------------
I have configured my webserver (nginx) to have its document root out of its 
working path in "..\files" (please, note the two dots). When I request static 
files, it serves them without any problem. Anyway If I request a PHP file, the 
request it's not served because php-cgi.exe running as the fastCGI server al 
127.0.0.1:9000 returns an error 400 code.

If I user absolute paths it works. Also, if I move the "..\files" folder to 
"./files" (please, note the only one dot) and I change the document root to 
reflect that new relative path.

So It looks that relative paths with two dots are not getting resolved by php-
cgi.exe as fastCGI server.

I have the same problem since months. I would even pay money to get this bug fixed. So far you can "solve" it by using mklink.

e.g.
mklink /J files ..\files

To clarify: in nginx.conf you have

    root: ../files

and in php.ini you have set doc_root to the absolute path of that
root?  This works for me; either the issue has been fixed in the
meantime, or I'm missing something.  Please clarify.

The same bug still exists. PHP Version 8.1.8 and ngix webserver. 
If the root in the NGIX server is i.e. "root ../myserver/ ;" the resolved SCRIPT_FILE name will contain "..". This causes a " No input file specified" error even thou the file exists and the path is valid.

@lvslinux, did you set the PHP directive doc_root to an *absolute*
path?
