#34829 [Opn->Fbk]: file_exists() doesn't works for some files

ID: 34829 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: kylnas at tiscali dot it -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Filesystem function related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.4.0 New Comment: Please re-read my last post. And don't paste huge scripts not related to the reproduce code if not asked for. Basically what I need to reproduce it: 1) permissions on the files you can't find (I'm sure the filetype and the way you create them doesn't matter). short version: do ls -l <file> and paste the result here. 2) a *short* but *complete* reproduce case I can copy/paste and test it. most likely I'll need to know your directory structure too (because you refuse to use absolute paths). Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-10-12 22:25:58] tony2001@php.net "A reproduce script" means I need a script that I can copy/paste and reproduce the problem. Probably, with some additional actions (like creating a certain file etc.). How do you suppose I should reproduce the problem with the script you've given? Obviously I don't have all your files here. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-10-12 22:19:53] kylnas at tiscali dot it This is the code: <?php $filename = '../images/products/thumbnails/101D0-86_jpg_thumb_75x75.jpg'; echo 'File does exist but it is not found: ' . $filename . '<br />'; echo 'If you copy the destination in a browser the file is visible<br />'; if (file_exists($filename)) echo 'YES<br />'; else echo 'NO<br /><br />'; $filename1 = '../images/products/thumbnails/tmp_gif'; echo 'File (in the same directory)) does exist and it is found: ' . $filename1 . '<br />'; if (file_exists('../images/products/thumbnails/tmp.gif')) echo 'YES<br />'; else echo 'NO<br />'; ?> This is the online link: http://81.174.30.88/tmp/tmp.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-10-11 16:11:07] tony2001@php.net Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce this bug ourselves. A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>, is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external resources such as databases, etc. If possible, make the script source available online and provide an URL to it here. Try to avoid embedding huge scripts into the report. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-10-11 16:09:31] kylnas at tiscali dot it Description: ------------ PHP 4.3.11 file_exists() doesn't works for some file (created by gd libray), instead if i create manually a file in the SAME directory the function works. Reproduce code: --------------- $file = 'images/products/thumbnails/11940-77_jpg_thumb_80x68.jpg'; if (file_exists($file)) echo 'yes'; else echo 'no'; Expected result: ---------------- YES. The file does exist. Actual result: -------------- NO. If I create a file in the same directory (like "tmp.gif") and I use the same function i get a "Yes" result. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=34829&edit=1
