From: justin at timelesstech dot com Operating system: FreeBSD 4.8 stable PHP version: 4.3.8 PHP Bug Type: *Directory/Filesystem functions Bug description: $_FILES['name'] no longer has full path (from 4.3.4 to 4.3.8)
Description: ------------ We have had scripts running for a while now fine on PHP 4.3.4 that assume that the $_FILES['name'] value on file uploads contains the full /path/to/the/filename.txt However after our server admins upgraded to PHP 4.3.8 the $FILES['name'] now only contains the filename, with no path. This makes it impossible for our recursive file uploader script to work, since it NEEDS the pathname of those files to know what directory/subdir on the server to upload the file(s) to! The changelog does not mention this, but does anybody have any ideas? -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29937&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29937&r=float
