I'm trying to read a file in PHP and I'm getting a permission denied error although everybody has read access to the file. The PHP code: $config=file_get_contents('/opt/jenkins/home/config.xml'); The error: Warning: file_get_contents(/opt/jenkins/home/config.xml): failed to open stream: Permission denied in [...] The filesystem permission: There is a symlink pointing /opt/jenkins/home/ to /var/lib/jenkins and everybody has read permission on the symlink, actual folder, and file. $ ls -lh /opt/jenkins/ lrwxrwxrwx 1 sysadmin sysadmin 16 2011-08-04 08:12 home -> /var/lib/jenkins $ ls -lh /var/lib/ | grep jenkins drwxr-xr-- 6 jenkins adm 4.0K 2011-08-04 10:04 jenkins $ ls -lh /var/lib/jenkins/config.xml -rwxr-xr-- 1 jenkins adm 3.9K 2011-08-04 10:05 /var/lib/jenkins/config.xml Apache configuration Configured to folllow symlinks ( Options All ). Adding a Directory directive for /var/lib/jenkins/ makes no difference. <Directory /opt/jenkins/home/> Options All AllowOverride All Order Allow,Deny Allow from All </Directory> Additional info Whether I use the path through the symlink ( "/opt/jenkins/home/config.xml" ) or the real path ( "/var/lib/jenkins/config.xml" ) I have the same problem. apache2 version=2.2.14-5ubuntu8.4 php version=5.3.2-1ubuntu4.9 Any idea as to why I'm getting the error?
