Description:
------------
I have a cron script that is run on 2 different machines like this:

1st machine has php 4.3.9 installed.
2nd machine has php 4.4.8 installed.

Script is ran from cron on both machines like this:

/usr/bin/php /var/www/vhosts/whatever.com/httpdocs/script.php

script.php contains the following section:

$filename="./mailfile/dailyreport.txt";

$fp=fopen($filename,"r");

if ($fp) {
    echo "file found";
} else {
    echo "file not found"
}

When script is ran from php 4.3.9 box it works fine but from 4.4.8 it returns a file not found error over $fp.


Reproduce code:
---------------
$filename="./mailfile/dailyreport.txt";

$fp=fopen($filename,"r");

if ($fp) {
    echo "file found";
} else {
    echo "file not found"
}

Expected result:
----------------
Script to behave like in php 4.3.9

Actual result:
--------------
$fp returns FALSE and a file not found error

We are sorry, but we can not support PHP 4 related problems anymore.
Momentum is gathering for PHP 6, and we think supporting PHP 4 will
lead to a waste of resources which we want to put into getting PHP 6
ready.

Huh? I have over 50 Mb of PHP4 code. Trust me if I could rewrite that in a timely manner I would. So I am stuck running a security bugged php version because the latest version isn't fixable?
