TYPO3 tries to find the path on the server to the current installation 
(to calculate absolute and relative paths). It supports several server 
variables to find this path and in the end checks if the result is an 
actual file (the script you're calling must of course be a file).

If no correct path can be determined or if the webserver user does not 
have the rights to check if the current script is an actual file, the 
error you encountered is produced.

So, check if the webserver user has the rights to read the TYPO3 files 
and if at least one the server variables ORIG_PATH_TRANSLATED, 
PATH_TRANSLATED, ORIG_SCRIPT_FILENAME, SCRIPT_FILENAME is set with the 
correct value.
This is an issue with the server environment/settings, not something 
inside TYPO3.
