This is clearly an Apache problem. I have asked this question on a few Apache forums and lists now and have not had any response.
Is there any way to make Apache parse the files where it finds them and not go looking for the real file?

You need to check your httpd.conf and make sure the "Options FollowSymLinks" is set for the server. Check the apache documentation for further information.

I have a PHP CMS that I use to host dozens of sites using Apache virtual hosting features. I need all the sites to run the exact same PHP CMS code but use their unique directories to host the different config files. The problem is that the PHP scripts are running from the directory that the links point to and not the directory where the site is. The big problem with that is the CMS tries to read a configuration file that is in a relative location to the PHP script like ../config.php. root@ttyq0[~]# ls -l /usr/local/cms -rw-r--r-- 1 user users 20 Jan 16 02:17 index.php drwxr-xr-x 9 user users 4096 Feb 22 16:40 admin root@ttyq0[~]# ls -l /vhost/test01.com/var/www/html/ -rw-r--r-- 1 user users 20 Jan 16 02:17 config.php lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Feb 22 14:05 index.php -> /usr/local/cms/index.php lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Feb 22 14:05 admin -> /usr/local/cms/admin root@ttyq0[~]# cd /vhost/test01.com/var/www/html/admin/ root@ttyq0[admin]# pwd /vhost/test01.com/var/www/html/admin root@ttyq0[admin]# Bash is doing what I need. It sees the current directory as the full path of the symlink. The admin.php at this point only has system("pwd"); in it and it prints out /usr/local/cms/admin as the directory it is in, not what I want. It will never see the ../config.php file. I tried doing this chdir ($_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]."/".$_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]); but it still resolves the link and does not accept the path that I constructed. How can I make PHP use the symlink and stop trying to resolve the original files? Royce Souther www.SiliconTao.com Let Open Source help your business move beyond.
