This is not a Scripting Engine Problem, but a FIle System function report.

Any updates for this? This is a known issue for a long time.

To reporter: I don't use windows. Could you try 4.1.0 and report the result?

On a Windows 2000 box with PHP and IIS5.0, create a page the calls the file_exists function 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\\test.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.

You have closed this bug with id #6554.

But this bug is not fixed in 4.0.6
