I’m having problems with the hosts file and PHP. When running the PHP code as root, the entries from /etc/hosts are read. But not when running the code as my user, or from apache.
root@server:/# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 mydomain.com
root@server:/# php -r "echo gethostbyname('mydomain.com');"
127.0.0.1
markus@server:/$ php -r "echo gethostbyname('mydomain.com');"
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Any idea why this is?
Did you make sure your
/etc/hostsfile is world readable?chmod a+r /etc/hosts
