I still can't get it to work.. help appriciated. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-11 17:58:26] xenosis2000@hotmail.com I ran into something similar with trying to OpenDir to a mapped network drive. Variable Define: $logpath = "s:\dir\System\"; Use it: $handle=opendir($logpath); Error: Warning: OpenDir: Invalid argument (errno 22) in logs.php on line 45 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-10-02 18:38:38] sniper@php.net No feedback, considered fixed. (naughty, naughty Sebastian.. :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-13 05:26:59] phildriscoll@php.net Sorry - that last line should read: *if* you set up DocumentRoot to point to it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-13 05:23:02] phildriscoll@php.net Just tested with Apache (version 1.3.12) on my NT box, and it's still ok. It's a mystery to me what the permissions are on a read only device, however I would guess that since php is running in the same security environment, if it is a security issue, then you might find that Apache can't serve up files directly from the CD is you set up DocumentRoot to point to it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-13 04:31:04] sebastian@php.net Okay, here's the news: <?php echo $dh = opendir('g:/'); ?> gives Resource id #1 when called from command-line with php -q opendir.php but Warning: OpenDir: Invalid argument (errno 22) when invoked through Apache/2.0.24-dev, where PHP is used as CGI. Could this be a permissions issue after all? But, if so, why did it work some time ago? Changing to 'Feedback'. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
