I have three partitions on my system: / /dev/shm /tmp I'm not sure if it matters, but the disk is mirrored with RAID level 1. Trying to rename a directory that resides in "/tmp" to the "/" file system results in: "Warning: rename(<from>, <to>): Is a directory in <script> on line XX." and the <to> directory name is created as an empty file. I moved the <from> directory to the "/" partition and then tried the rename again (using the same PHP code) and everything worked fine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30946&edit=1
