Other, non-HTTP, stream types might also be affected, but local files are definitely *NOT* affected. I have successfully reproduced this bug with PHP 5.2.9 on Linux, and 5.2.5, 5.2.12, 5.3.0, 5.3.1 and 5.3.3-dev (2010-Jan-04 15:00:00) on Windows. (I will keep the empty.txt URL in the reproduce code accessible for a while.) Reproduce code: --------------- $r = copy("http://lspace.sihnon.net/pub/empty.txt", "temp"); var_dump($r); Expected result: ---------------- bool(true) Actual result: -------------- bool(false) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50657&edit=1
