Description:
------------
Since the last update of my NetBSD system to PHP 5.2.3 all includes of the type include("../file.php") are denied.

For example: in file /foo/subdir/alpha.php I want to include /foo/beta.php the following error occurs:

---
Warning: require(../beta.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /foo/subdir/alpha.php on line 2

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required '../beta.php' (include_path='.') in /foo/subdir/alpha.php on line 2
---

Following things are checked twice: The filepermissions are OK, Apache (and every other user) can execute and read them. Directory permissions are aswell OK.

PHP Configuration is set to default settings. As I said everything worked totally fine since the latest update.

Thanks to everyone!

Reproduce code:
---------------
in /foo/subdir/alpha.php :

require("../beta.php");

Expected result:
----------------
Should include the file...

Actual result:
--------------
Permission denied, whereas all permissions are set totally OK and configuration is set to default settings.

I should add the following: The errors don not only occur on self written codes but on every Wordpress and Typo3 installation on this server.

NetBSD 3.1.0 not 3.0.1

sorry, it's my first bug report ;)

Works fine here on CentOS4.5, kubuntu Fiesty and latest debian linuxes.
Can you include files from a subdirectory of the current one aka /foo/subdir/subsubdir/ ?

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

Yes I can include files from subdirs...

I downgraded to PHP4 again (now it works...) but that's not an appropriate solution I think.

I think in the NetBSD pkgsrc there already is the latest PHP stable version...
