#28445 [NEW]: file_exists incorrect behavior

From: webmaster at freshfm dot com dot au Operating system: FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE PHP version: 4.3.6 PHP Bug Type: Filesystem function related Bug description: file_exists incorrect behavior Description: ------------ PHP4.3.6RC3 Actually. Previously reported for different versions; #21410, #16830 Will *at seemingly random* times produce incorrect behavior. IE: "./images/members/admin.jpg" does not exist, but for some reason it returns true. Apologies if this has been corrected in later versions, I can't tell - my ISP is evil. Reproduce code: --------------- function pictureExists($path, $extensions) { for ($i=0;$i<=count($extensions);$i++) { print $path . "." . $extensions[$i]; phpinfo(); print file_exists($path . "." . $extensions[$i]); print true; if (file_exists($path . "." . $extensions[$i]) == true) { return "." . $extensions[$i]; } } return false; } $path = "./images/members/admin"; $exts[] = "jpg"; pictureExists($path,$exts); Expected result: ---------------- return true Actual result: -------------- return false. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=28445&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28445&r=float
