Description
Hello,
i noticed working on a wordpress website that if the website is in a directory (es. /var/www/releases/3/) and the web root is pointing through a symbolic link ( so. /var/www/current/ pointing to /var/www/releases/3/ ) the function in the wordpress config is not retrieving the right directory:
if ( !defined('ABSPATH') )
define('ABSPATH', dirname(FILE) . '/');
I solved manually defining ABSPATH to the right directory, but i think it would be better to fix if maybe checking if the directory is a symlink.
The problem is that from php5 FILE is reporting the absolute path, so it may be better to use $_SERVERPWD? to retrieve the path:
<?php echo $_SERVERPWD? ."\n"; ?>
would be
/var/www/current
Thanks,
Emanuele.
