t3lib_div::getIndpEnv('TYPO3_DOCUMENT_ROOT') delivers wrong value in Backend
0%
Description
When in backend mode, t3lib_div::getIndpEnv() delivers a wrong value when asked for 'TYPO3_DOCUMENT_ROOT'. When the root of your TYPO3-Installation is e.g. located in /srv/www/htdocs/t3inst/, it returns /srv/www/htdocs/t3inst/typo3/.
I suppose this happens because getIndpEnv uses SCRIPT_FILENAME for getting the document-root. When in backend-mode, this path is {real doc-root}/typo3/xyz.php, so the
Additionally, the value is always wrong when the whole TYPO3-dir is a symlink to another location, e.g. when /srv/www/htdocs/t3inst/ points to /srv/www/t3inst-real/.

Well, I found out that this isn't a real bug in t3lib_div, but in the extension I used. The problem was that the extension called browse_links.php with a path containing two slashes, i.e. typo3//browse_links.php. This made getIndpEnv return an incorrect value for DOCUMENT_ROOT.
Perhaps there should be a clause that filters out double slashes etc. to avoid such errors in the future.
The problem with the symlink persists, btw.

Confirmed: TYPO3_DOCUMENT_ROOT is wrong if installaltion symlinked (I think) / and or a subpath.
Stumbled upon this in the query generator for file fields.

Is this still a problem? In which menu/function/extension does this bug show up? Can it be reproduced somehow? Big Thx for any further hints.

Still valid, at least if an installation is in a subdirectory.

My patch was wrong. Fact is that TYPO3_DOCUMENT_ROOT works as expected, it delivers the apache web root.
What is wrong is the usage - don't expect to compose the absolute path of a file with this var, use PATH_site instead. Attached v2 adds these comment to TYPO3_DOCUMENT_ROOT and fixes wrong usage in core:
// Get the web root (it is not the root of the TYPO3 installation)
// The absolute path of the script can be calculated with TYPO3_DOCUMENT_ROOT + SCRIPT_FILENAME
