note 71440 added to features.file-upload

Before you even bother doing anything, verify the filesystem your permanent upload directory will reside on. Use NTFS before you even start! (Assuming you're on Windows.) Unfortunately, because I've been preparing to switch to Linux on this machine, I thought it would be a *great* idea to use FAT32 so I could access my websites from both Windows and Linux (this is not a production box, but where I am creating a CMS). This was a *bad* idea...since the filesystem is not NTFS, now the only permissions I can set are *share* permissions. I *guess* that *share* permissions are not used through the webserver, because even though the user Apache runs as is one of the users given permissions "Read" and "Modify" share permissions, the file cannot be permanently saved via neither move_uploaded_file() nor copy(). I verified this by using conditionals with !is_readable() and !is_writable() to echo specific messages. So, now I have to back up everything I've done, reformat that partition as NTFS, copy everything over again, and set all the permissions, including on databases that I am using with other pages. *(sigh)* ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 71.83.58.226 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/71440 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71440/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71440/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71440/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71440/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71440/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71440/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71440 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/71440 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
