This has been a problem on OSX for some time. Unfortunately I don't
have access to an OSX box.
How urgent is this? I will be in your timezone next week, with some
spare time in the evenings I hope. If you can give me access, I would
love the opportunity to debug it. In the mean time, there is a hack
around for it (not this is a potential security issue and not at all
supported by the project </disclaimer>)
In the following files
setup/config.php line 38
phpgwapi/inc/class.vfs_sql.inc.php line 86
infolog/inc/class.vfs.inc.php line 156
change
<code>
function in_docroot($path)
{
$docroots = array(PHPGW_SERVER_ROOT,$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']);
</code>
to
<code>
function in_docroot($path)
{
return false;
$docroots = array(PHPGW_SERVER_ROOT,$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']);
</code>
Please email me off list if I can get access to the box.
Cheers
Dave
