#27792 [Com]: Functions fail on large files (filesize,is_file,is_dir)

ID: 27792 Comment by: php at chairbreaker dot com Reported By: kode at kodekrash dot com Status: Assigned Bug Type: Filesystem function related Operating System: * (LFS) PHP Version: 5.1* Assigned To: wez New Comment: Same problem on SuSE Linux 9.3 using mod_php with Apache 2.0.53. PHP version is 4.3.10, Kernel 2.6.11.4-21.8-default. File system is ext3. PHP issues "Warning: is_dir(): Stat failed for <server path to file> (errno=75 - Value too large for defined data type) in <path to script>.php on line nnn" any time a file larger than 2 GB is encountered, which unfortunately breaks my php menu system. PHP is a great tool - hope you can fix this soon!

IMHO this is a pretty important feature to have. But then, not everyone is in the business of serving up such large files from a PHP-driven website. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-31 07:14:18] wez@php.net PHP does not currently support LFS. This is something to be addressed in PHP 5.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-31 03:27:56] kode at kodekrash dot com Description: ------------ Error: (errno=75 - Value too large for defined data type) Functions: is_file is_dir filesize Premise: size of file is greater than 2GB. ------------------------------------------ I have been able to reproduce this error on 4 different PHP installations (all on RedHat 7.3 machines), using 12 different files for each test. ------------------------------------------ This bug has been submitted before, but is marked as BOGUS, which it is certainly not. Reproduce code: --------------- filesize( $fname ); or is_file( $fname ) or is_dir( $fname ) where filesize( $fname ) > 2GB Expected result: ---------------- Function: filesize Expected: numeric value matching size of file Function: is_file Expected: boolean value Function: is_dir Expected: boolean value Actual result: -------------- (errno=75 - Value too large for defined data type) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27792&edit=1
