You may close this ticket out. After reviewing this I discovered that
the user that Apache runs, nobody, was over quota. I initially only
looked at the user of the vhost that was having the problem.
I do apologize for wasting your time.

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

Works just fine here.

Can you please provide us with a *short* script that consistently
reproduces this bug and that we can run? As it is now, you've only
provided us with what looks like an excerpt of the script, and if we
can't reproduce the issue, we can't tell you if it is a bug or not.
Limiting the code to an accurate representation of the problem will
help you troubleshoot anything that might be wrong with your code and,
if there's something broken with PHP, it will help us isolate it so
that we can fix it efficiently.
Thanks!

Description:
A simple upload script uploads the file, fully intact, but then a few
seconds later zero's out the file making a zero byte length file.
Reproduce code:
---
uploading to section = $section\n");
print("file name = $upload_item_name\n");
print("file size = $upload_item_size bytes\n");
print("file in tmp = $size\n");
if (copy ($upload_item, "./$upload_item_name")) {
print("\n");
print("your file was successfully
uploaded!\n");
print("\n");
print("please note your file name -
$upload_item_name\n");
print("you will need to enter it in the
appropriate form.\n");
print("\n");
print("");
} else {
print("can't be copied - there may be another
file with this name\n");
}
}
?>
Expected result:
The file should get written to the directory specified from the form
and named the same name as the uploaded file.
Actual result:
--
Appropriate directories are writable by the apache user/group. Not a
quota issue. 'upload_max_filesize' is set to 55 megs. No error log is
generated as PHP has, as far as it thinks, written the file.
What happens is the file gets uploaded to /tmp (full permisssions on
/tmp) and then copied to the requested directory. I can grab a
directory listing and see it in the specified directory in whole -
original size and name. If I refresh the page again the file is zero'd
out but with the original filename.
I'm hesitant to call this a bug but having bounced this off other
contacts in the industry I am left with no choice.
