symlink problem

[map200uk]

Hi,

 

i have got sym links working, the sym link is put into the database etc

however:

 

Warning: fopen(/../../mp3/aphex_twin-07-heliosphan-rns.mp3) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in

 

 

is it not possible to open the file from a sym link?"

 

the mp3 container is in /opt/lampp/htdocs/mp3

 

and the script is run from /opt/lampp/htdocs/phpdb/beta

 

surely its possible to open the file using that link?

 

thanks!

Look at the path in the warning "/../../mp3/aphex_twin-07-heliosphan-rns.mp3" this isn't a valid path.

 

Show one of your sym links, either from a shell if you type

 

ls -l name_of_symlink

 

it will show you where the symlink is pointing

 

or use the readlink()

[jitesh]

fopen("../../mp3/aphex_twin-07-heliosphan-rns.mp3") ;

 

Or

 

fopen("/mp3/aphex_twin-07-heliosphan-rns.mp3");
