Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=74189&edit=1 ID: 74189 User updated by: costinel dot manole at gmail dot com Reported by: costinel dot manole at gmail dot com -Summary: weird notice on file upload +Summary: PHP Notice: Unknown: file created in the system's temporary directory in Unknow -Status: Open +Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: *General Issues Operating System: Centos 7 PHP Version: 7.1.2 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I found the problem. upload_tmp_dir was overridden for a specific site in vhosts.conf, and that folder was deleted recently. Thank you for help, ans sorry for losing your time. I still consider that the mesage of that notice can be improved. (eg: 'Can not write to upload_tmp_dir') Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-03-01 12:21:14] spam2 at rhsoft dot net just check the permissions of every parent folder and make sure nothing overrides "upload_tmp_dir" - verify that with phpinfo() ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-03-01 12:16:47] costinel dot manole at gmail dot com I can copy or delete files from php in upload_tmp_dir. But $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'] returns my sys_temp_dir I have tried all combinations of folders including: upload_tmp_dir = "/var/www/upload" sys_temp_dir = "/tmp" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-03-01 11:44:32] nikic@php.net The notice occurs if creating a temporary file in the specified directory failed and PHP has to fall back to the system temporary directory. Can you please check whether the directory you specified by upload_tmp_dir is actually writable by the user PHP runs under? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-03-01 11:39:07] spam2 at rhsoft dot net > Anyway I have changed to > upload_tmp_dir = "/var/www/upload" > sys_temp_dir = "/var/www/upload" > > Same result what do you expect? "file created in the system's temporary directory" and to solve it you set "upload_tmp_dir" and "sys_temp_dir" *again* to the same value which is the problem common sense: upload_tmp_dir = "/var/www/upload" sys_temp_dir = "/tmp" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-03-01 11:30:52] costinel dot manole at gmail dot com On my server "/var/www/uploadtemp" is not shared by multiple apps. Anyway I have changed to upload_tmp_dir = "/var/www/upload" sys_temp_dir = "/var/www/upload" Same result. I have eliminated all the PHP code from file. The PHP notice is generated with pure HTML Code <form action="test_upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input name="userfile[]" type="file" id="userfile" maxlength="" multiple /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send File"></td> </form> If I attach 3 files I get 3 notices in error_log ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
