Symfony's sfYaml::load returning a stange value

In a Symfony project, I have the following php code inside a YML file. I was hoping this code would read another yml file and modify the content based upon its value. However, sfYaml::load is returning a string instead of an array. Any ideas why this might be?

In the following code, I expected $s to contain an array, but instead it contains a string with the value "../config/server_settings.yml".

From databases.ym开发者_运维百科l:

dsn:      mysql:host=myhost;dbname=mydbname<?php $s = sfYaml::load('../config/server_settings.yml');var_dump($s); ?>

It looks like it's treating your input as a string of yml content, possibly because it can't find the file. Try using the full path or some quick debugging with is_file('../config/server_settings.yml')

It looks like you're trying to define custom settings.
