From: aulbach at mayflower dot de Operating system: all PHP version: 4.4.0 PHP Bug Type: *Directory/Filesystem functions Bug description: filesize()/stat() fails on too big files
Description: ------------ Writing a php command-line script, which scans all my files on my big raid, I mentioned, that PHP is not able to handle the case, when the files are bigger than 4 GB. But this is more and more used, cause for example complete DVD-images are just put in one file. PHP itself cannot handle bigger numbers, cause it uses 32 bit integer. Currently I help me with `ls` but that's no real solution. Everyone is using 64 bit integer now. There are many cases, timestamps for example. For now I suggest, that the number is stored as a string, if it gets too big. I use that number only to write it into the database (which can handle 64 bit int), so for that case this is correct. For long term, I suggest a mechanism, that automatically assigns 64 bit integer, if the number gets too big. Reproduce code: --------------- $fsize = filesize($path); // returns invalid if file is too big, the rest of the program will fail, if I assume, that there will be a number OR $stats = stat($path); // complete record invalid -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=34750&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34750&r=mysqlcfg
