Quote: "The fact that this "worked" for you in 4.2.3 indicates a bug in 4.2.3 that has been fixed in 4.3." Now that is an idea that didn't occur to me. And since php 4.2.3 may have been buggy then obviously the fix is to upgrade to 4.3 and rewrite it the way you folks suggest. Thanks for that answer, a much more mature one than RTFM. Hence this isn't bogus but an actual bug that was in 4.2.3. And the patch is to make sure the code is written correctly. Thus one last question, looking at the code I initially posted, what would be your suggestion if I may ask specifically tailored to my problem? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-11 18:15:22] [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Warning: fopen() expects parameter 1 to be string" Now read the manual for fopen -> parameter 1 needs to be a string. You are passing a resource. The fact that this "worked" for you in 4.2.3 indicates a bug in 4.2.3 that has been fixed in 4.3. Your supposed temporary file name would be a string "Resource id #4", which isn't a very good temporary file name. You describe the expected behaviour of PHP, your script is broken, therefore this is a user error, and thus a bogus report. Now, please leave us in peace to fix real bugs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-11 18:08:39] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Assure you no user error. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-11 18:01:44] [EMAIL PROTECTED] User error. Please leave this as bogus. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-11 16:05:05] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I don't consider this bogus and your thoughts are your own. I wouldn't be the type to just submit a bug report that I didn't think was founded. The code worked under 4.2.3 and if you care to check I can send the whole package to you to disprove your "thoughts". Upgrading to php 4.3 has broken the subroutine. Instead of "thinking" that it doesn't work I would suspect more from php developers for a more quantitative analysis of the situation. Ergo I prefer to close this bug report myself because I'm apparently not getting any constructive feedback here, instead of having it labeled as "bogus". Once again, the code, unchanged prior 4.3 worked. The same exact code that worked no longer does. Absolutely nothing has been changed. Anyhow, thanks for replying at least. It is much better to know where one stands rather than not getting any reply whatsoever. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-11 15:59:23] [EMAIL PROTECTED] As Jani said, tmpfile returns a resource, no need to try to fopen it. He said also that nothing was changed in 4.3.0 about it, which is right. Your code is bogus and I don't think it ever worked. See: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.tmpfile.php resource tmpfile ( void) Creates a temporary file with an unique name in write mode, returning a file handle similar to the one returned by fopen(). The file is automatically removed when closed (using fclose()), or when the script ends. You should use: $temp = tmpfile(); fwrite($temp, "writing to tempfile"); fclose($temp); // this removes the file Not a bug->Bogus again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
