Bug #14310 Updated: Uploaded empty files treated differently

ID: 14310 Updated by: dmitri@rm-f.net Reported By: a.genkin@utoronto.ca Status: Closed Bug Type: HTTP related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: Derick, I assume the change happened here: http://cvs.php.net/diff.php/php4/main/rfc1867.c?r1=1.86&r2=1.87 Why is it an error to upload an empty file, though? Thank you, Dmitri. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-01 16:56:10] derick@php.net Fixed in CVS. You'll have to wait for version 4.2.0... Derick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-01 16:33:14] a.genkin@utoronto.ca When a zero-length file is uploaded, the temporary file is not created, and the appropriate variable is set to 'none'. This forces me into all sorts of hacks in my php code (can't use is_uploaded_file() and move_uploaded_file(), for instance), to give empty files special treatment. I think that *a file is a file*, and its size should not matter, as long as it is within limits.
