Status: Open
Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function
Operating System: FreeBSD
PHP Version: 4.3.8
New Comment:
Well, yes, PHP in this particular case works exactly as `cp`:
linux:/ # touch /tmp/testfile
linux:/ # chown nobody:nobody /tmp/testfile
linux:/ # ls -l /tmp/testfile
-rw-r--r-- 1 nobody nobody 0 Oct 23 15:47 /tmp/testfile
linux:/ # cp /tmp/testfile /usr/testfile
linux:/ # ls -l /usr/testfile
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 23 15:47 /usr/testfile
but `mv` preserves permissions and IMO rename() should behave in the
same way.
I'll write a patch shortly.

Description:
------------
When renaming a file (via the "rename" function) across filesystems,
owner, group and permission information will be lost if (a) we are
running as root and (b) the file is not owned by root.
Additionally, I suspect that permission information can be lost even if
(a) we are not running as root and (b) we are running as the user who
owns the file.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
// I am running as root
touch ("/tmp/testfile");
passthru ("ls -l /tmp/testfile");
chown ("/tmp/testfile", "nobody");
chgrp ("/tmp/testfile", "nobody");
chmod ("/tmp/testfile", 0);
passthru ("ls -l /tmp/testfile");
rename ("/tmp/testfile", "/tmp/testfile2");
passthru ("ls -l /tmp/testfile2");
rename ("/tmp/testfile2", "/home/testfile2");
passthru ("ls -l /home/testfile2");
?>
Expected result:
----------------
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0 Oct 10 18:53 /tmp/testfile
---------- 1 nobody nobody 0 Oct 10 18:53 /tmp/testfile
---------- 1 nobody nobody 0 Oct 10 18:53 /tmp/testfile2
---------- 1 nobody nobody 0 Oct 10 18:53 /home/testfile2
Actual result:
--------------
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0 Oct 10 18:53 /tmp/testfile
---------- 1 nobody nobody 0 Oct 10 18:53 /tmp/testfile
---------- 1 nobody nobody 0 Oct 10 18:53 /tmp/testfile2
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0 Oct 10 18:53 /home/testfile2
