Operating system: Win NT Server 4.0 SP5
PHP version: 4.0.1pl2
PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Bug description: file_exists not working with UNC names
Web Server : Apache 1.3.9 (win32)
Reproduce :
On a Windows NT box with PHP and Apache, create a page the calls the file_exists func on a known
machine\share\file
You will need to create a share on that machine or another.
For example :
if (file_exists("\\\\machine\\share\\fred.txt") {
echo "Exists<BR>";
} else {
echo "Does not Exist<BR>";
}
The file_exists function will always return false.
The function works fine with drive letter associations, but not for UNC notation on win32.
