Whenever you try to load a .php page with 10 characters or less in it's name. It gives the error 'Fatal error: Unable to open c:\w? in Unknown on line 0' or 'Fatal error: Unable to open c:\wwwroot\index.php? in Unknown on line 0'.

It works perfectly with any page with more then 10 characters in it's name.

Tried it on two different NT4 SP5 systems and one Win95 system. All were running PHP4 beta 2 as a CGI under Apache 1.3.6.

The length in characters of the full path seems to triger the error. Not just the file name, like I mentioned earlier.

I am also running PHP3 3.0.11 as a CGI on all machines using '.php3' extention.

Here are the steps I took when installing it.
1. extracted it to C:\php42\

2. added php.ini to C:\winnt\ or c:\windows (some with php_mysql.dll enabled)

3. on one machine I added php4ts.dll to C:\winnt\system32\
 - the other two I left that file in C:\php42\. PHP4 b1 seemed to work like this.

4. added these lines to the httpd.conf of apache
  ScriptAlias /php4/ "c:/php42/"
  AddType application/x-httpd-php4 .php
  Action application/x-httpd-php4 "/php4/php.exe"

5. Then reloaded apache.

Dear Jim,

I am writing regarding the bug report that you posted 1999-08-13 at 19:15:50

Have you tried any of the newer releases of PHP?  If so, does the bug still occur?

Thank you for your time!
