From: Operating system: Arch Linux PHP version: 5.3.3 Package: Filesystem function related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:glob() returns false for a pattern that matches zero files
Description: ------------ On my system the glob() returns false if there are no files matching the pattern even though the documentation (http://php.net/manual/en/function.glob.php) states that it should return an empty array. PHP version: 5.3.3 The only things I have changed in php.ini are open_basedir (/srv/http/:/home/:/usr/share/webapps:/etc/webapps:/tmp/:/usr/share/pear/:/usr/share/symfony) and enabling of several extensions (mcrypt, mysql, pdo, pdo_sqlite). I've seen similar bugs reported and closed a few years ago: #29928 Test script: --------------- <?php // phpMyAdmin is an empty, existing directory located in Apache root $glob = glob('/phpMyAdmin/*'); echo $glob == false ? "false\n" : ""; echo is_array($glob) ? "array\n" : ""; ?> Expected result: ---------------- glob() should return an empty array if no files match the pattern. Actual result: -------------- The script prints 'false' when run on my box (both under Apache 2.2.17 and with php from command line). -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53460&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53460&r=mysqlcfg
