-Status: Bogus
+Status: Open
Bug Type: Filesystem function related
Operating System: Windows
PHP Version: 5.2.3
New Comment:
Do you know how this works on *nix systems?
Well i will tell you - it will *move* the "new file" over the "old
file" in an atomic rename. This is what PHP needs to handle on Windows,
too. I don't need any extras on *nix to rename. And PHP internal command
should work platform independent.
This bug should be fixed to make sure the code runs on windows in the
*same way* as it does on *nix systems.
What is so difficult to understand about this? Writing write code once,
*run everywhere* is not possible with this bug.

Please open a dictionary and translate the error message:
PHP Warning: rename(C:\temp\tmp_file.txt.new,C:\temp\tmp_file.txt):
****File exists**** in C:\Temp\rename-test.php on line 2
It says FILE EXISTS, don't you see it?
Please do NOT reopen the report again.
Thank you.

As already said, this won't help anything.

<?php
rename('C:\temp\tmp_file.txt.new', 'C:\temp\tmp_file.txt');
?>

So you have a Windows Box next to you? Before answering, test yourself
if you don't trust me, but don't close this case until this bug has been
fixed! THX.

This doesn't have anything to do with double quotes. With single quotes
this isn't working, too.
<?php
rename('C:\temp\tmp_file.txt.new', 'C:\temp\tmp_file.txt');
?>
