PHP 4.0 Bug #9727 Updated: Unable to use @ in URL passwords with fopen()

ID: 9727 Updated by: sniper Reported By: aaron.webb@corenetworks.com Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Filesystem function related Assigned To: Comments: Works for me just fine. (with a passwd containing a @ ) Please try the latest CVS snapshot from http://snaps.php.net/ Reopen this bug report if problem still persists. --Jani Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-03-14 14:32:41] aaron.webb@corenetworks.com Here's my exact code with only the username and password changed (oops - i sent a slightly altered version before, to change the server names/passwords). This version has the following behaviour: If I use a password containing only letters/numbers, I can open and read the file no problem. If I use the same password, and specify a file that does not exist, I get a message saying 'file not found' and one saying 'file or directory does not exist'. If I use a password containing the @ symbol, I get a message that says 'invalid file descriptor', no matter if the file exists or not. Code: $pword = 'password'; $server = "prefix"; $pword = urlencode($pword); echo $filename = 'ftp://username:' . $pword . "@$server.domain.com/path/file.txt"; $fd = fopen ($filename, "r"); echo $contents = fread ($fd, 100); fclose ($fd); --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-03-13 22:54:48] sniper@php.net There is one bug in your script: . . $server = "servername"; . . echo $filename = 'ftp://username:'.$pword."@$servername/$filename"; . . You haven't got $servername set but $server. Try changing that. Reopen if this wasn't the problem. --Jani --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-03-13 18:21:51] aaron.webb@corenetworks.com I'm running 4.0.4pl1 on redhat 6.1. I've tried (raw and regular) urlencoding my ftp password to use with fopen, but if there's a @ in it it says 'bad file descriptor'. I can open any file via ftp just fine, as long as there's no @ in the filename. The 'allow url fopen' (can't remember the exact name) is set to ON in my php.ini. Here's my script: <html> <body> <? $pword = 'stuff@stuff'; $server = "servername"; $filename = "filename"; $pword = urlencode($pword); echo $filename = 'ftp://username:' . $pword . "@$servername/$filename"; $fd = fopen ($filename, "r"); echo $contents = fread ($fd, 100); fclose ($fd); ?> </body> </html> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION!
