Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php . Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-08 13:11:03] mahesh dot vemula at in dot ibm dot com Description: ------------ When filesize() is applied on a symbolic link to a file, it returns the size of the file pointed by it instead of returning the size of symlink itself. This is happening for both php5 and php6. Is this the valid behavior? Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $file_handle = fopen("test.tmp", "w"); fwrite( $file_handle, str_repeat("Hello World, this is 2007 year ....\n", 100) ); fclose($file_handle); symlink("test.tmp", "test_symlink.tmp"); //creating symlink var_dump( filesize("test_symlink.tmp") ); //size of the symlink itself clearstatcache(); var_dump( filesize("test.tmp") ); //size of the file clearstatcache(); unlink("test_symlink.tmp"); unlink("test.tmp"); ?> Expected result: ---------------- -sizeof(symlink)- int(3600) Actual result: -------------- int(3600) int(3600) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42248&edit=1
