From: aiso at chawerim dot nl Operating system: window xp PHP version: 5.3.0 PHP Bug Type: Filesystem function related Bug description: file_exists fails for files on network share
Description: ------------ file_exists() fails for files on network share. Although these files can be perfectly read by e.g. file_get_contents(). So these files really do exist! file_exists() works without problems for files not on a share such as 'C:\Program Files\PHP\php.ini'. Can reproduce also with '\\\\.HOST\\SHARED FOLDERS\\data\\php.ini' Using php 5.3.0 (VC9 x86 Non Thread Safe (2009-Jun-30 08:52:54)) on windows XP Pro SP3. safe_mode is off. This is tested on windows console (cmd.exe). User is admin and is allowed to go and read files on this share. Reproduce code: --------------- $file = '//.HOST/SHARED FOLDERS/data/php.ini'; error_log(substr(file_get_contents($file),0,100)); if (file_exists($file)) { error_log("does exist"); } else { error_log("does not exist"); } Expected result: ---------------- First 100 characters of php.ini file + 'does exist' Actual result: -------------- First 100 characters of php.ini file + 'does not exist' -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50220&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50220&r=mysqlcfg
