When Chameleon tries to figure out the gszAppPath, it tests $_SERVER variables to see where the page resides on the filesystem. The $_SERVER array is populated by PHP based on information coming from the web server and is different depending on PHP version and web server version (i.e php 4.3.2 reports different values that php 4.3.6 for the same web server). Chameleon already detects the two major differences, which is PATH_TRANSLATED and ORIG_PATH_TRANSLATED. It appears that some versions of PHP will provide both but one will be an empty string. Since PATH_TRANSLATED is tested first, if it is an empty string, Chameleon will incorrectly determine the location of the application and will fail to work.
Fixed in cvs for beta 3. The fix refuses to use empty values from the $_SERVER vars and also protects against the application using symlinks in an application-supplied app path. Also a test for a valid app path is now made and a fatal error is produced if it is not set.
Changed target for verification to 1.99 RC 1.
