Bug #11793 Updated: file_exists() and friends

ID: 11793 Updated by: frink@thepurplebuffalo.net.XXXXXX Reported By: bf@ez.no Status: Bogus Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Redhat Linux PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: I was having trouble with the following code: $date = date "+%d-%b-%Y"; $data_file = "data/" . $date; rtrim($data_file); # $data_file = rtrim($data_file); clearstatcache(); if( file_exists($data_file) ) { $curr_data = "yes"; } else { $curr_data = "no"; } For the record the solution was to change the "rtrim" line to the one I have commented out. I was thinking in perl. :) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-06-29 04:51:07] bf@ez.no This was not a PHP problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-06-29 03:09:36] bf@ez.no I'm having problem with file_exists(), is_file(), file_size() since the upgrade to 4.0.6. It does not work if I supply a variable as a filename. E.g. file_exists( $var ); will return false even if the variable contains a correct path. file_exists( "path/to/file.txt" ); works. Same for the is_file() and file_size(); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=11793&edit=1
