Soory I mistaken the eleveted word.
It's running with admin rights.(right click run as administrator.).
The problem is not solved.
I'll try to run as different user (Administrator) but I don't think
that it will be good with that because this account is a member of
administrators group.

You have to be under an elevated user to create links (not a php
restriction, but the underlying API/Function). You can try it using the
console as well.

No,it's running with my account.No service.I can write that folder with
php (file upload is working too there).

Do you run it under an elevated user?

Sorry for the double post but one important thing is written wrong in
my 
letter.(if (is_readable("../../foo/bar/2.jpg")) echo "readable";)
(/foo/bar/1.jpg is the correct and i use it in my code not 2.jpg)

Description:
------------
Hi
I am using PHP 5.3.1.0 and Windows 7
Symlink doesn't work for me:

Warning: symlink() [function.symlink]: Could not fetch file 
information(error 3) in E:\htdocs\foo\bar\tree_copy.php on line 148

(5.3.0	 This function is now available on Windows platforms (Vista, 
Server 2008 or greater).)

What are the error codes?

Reproduce code:
---------------
---
From manual page: function.symlink
---
if (is_readable("../../foo/bar/1.jpg")) echo "readable";
symlink("../../foo/bar/2.jpg","../../foo/bar/1.jpg");

../../foo/bar/1.jpg is exists and the path is correct.

Expected result:
----------------
readable
2.jpg what is symlink for 1.jpg.

Actual result:
--------------
readable
Warning: symlink() [function.symlink]: Could not fetch file 
information(error 3) in E:\htdocs\foo\bar\tree_copy.php on line 148
and no 2.jpg
