Doc #50676 [Com]: rename across Volumes throws warning "Operation not permitted"

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=50676&edit=1 ID: 50676 Comment by: mail at danielkesselberg dot de Reported by: andreas at heigl dot org Summary: rename across Volumes throws warning "Operation not permitted" Status: Closed Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 PHP Version: 5.3.1 Assigned To: aharvey Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: 4.3.3 rename() may now be able to rename files across partitions on *nix based systems, provided the appropriate permissions are held. Warnings may be generated if the destination filesystem doesn't permit chown() or chmod() system calls to be made on files — for example, if the destination filesystem is a FAT filesystem. Is no longer visible at: http://php.net/rename. Could you consider to add (or show) it again? I guess you don't show changelog entries for < PHP5 anymore. Thanks! Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-07-02 15:34:43] ben at indietorrent dot org @jorgex0 No, you are not correct. The documentation has indeed been updated. From the Changelog section at http://php.net/rename : 4.3.3 rename() may now be able to rename files across partitions on *nix based systems, provided the appropriate permissions are held. Warnings may be generated if the destination filesystem doesn't permit chown() or chmod() system calls to be made on files — for example, if the destination filesystem is a FAT filesystem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-10-30 13:59:45] jorgex0 dot o at gmail dot com This isn't documented, for what I see. Am I right? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-09-06 06:05:22] aharvey@php.net This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better. Committed a slight variation on what I originally proposed, mostly to note that FAT filesystems are the most likely culprits here. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-09-06 06:05:04] aharvey@php.net Automatic comment from SVN on behalf of aharvey Revision: http://svn.php.net/viewvc/?view=revision&amp;revision=303064 Log: Fix doc bug #50676 (rename across Volumes throws warning &quot;Operation not permitted&quot;). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-09-03 20:51:51] pajoye@php.net See your own comment :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
