PHP 4.0 Bug #9790 Updated: File left in temp dir after POST

ID: 9790 Updated by: sniper Reported By: richard@openkast.com Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Filesystem function related Assigned To: Comments: Fixed in PHP 4.0.4pl1. --Jani Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-03-16 11:00:32] richard@openkast.com <!-- myform.php --> <html> <form action="dosubmit.php"> <input name=image1 type=file> <input type=submit> </form> </html> <!-- END myform.php --> <!-- dosubmit.php --> <?php // // Move the image to the given directory // moveImageFile("imageDir"); function moveImageFile($destDir) { $imageName1 = $GLOBALS["HTTP_POST_FILES"]["image1"]["name"]; if (!empty($imageName1)) { $filename = "$destDir/$imageName1"; move_uploaded_file($GLOBALS["image1"], $filename); chmod($filename, "420"); } } ?> <!-- END dosubmit.php --> If the user specifies a file which exists on the local machine, all well and good (the file is put into the imageDir directory and the temp file is removed from /var/tmp). However, if they either specify a non-existent file, or leave the input field blank, then a temp php..... file (0 bytes in size) is left in /var/tmp. The documentation says that uploaded files should automatically be removed from the temp dir, but it doesn't seem to be happening in this case. I can't even remove the file manually using unlink because I can't get the temp file name. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION!
