RE: [PHP-WIN] Reading mapped drive with PHP5

I found this page relating to mapped drives and PHP: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=26214&edit=1 Since you upgraded your PHP, maybe some of your other settings changed as well. This page indicates that mapped drives are user-specific and if your PHP script is running as a different user, that it might not have access to the same mappings and that cause a problem. This page: http://www.phpbuilder.com/board/showthread.php?threadid=10262019 Mentions someone who couldn't use the UNC but could use a mapped drive. They said changing to the CGI version enabled them to use the UNC. Sounds like a far shot, and I have no idea why this would make a difference (I'm sure someone on here does though.. I'd be curious to find out). Some things to look into at least. -TG > -----Original Message----- > From: George Pitcher [mailto:george.pitcher@ingenta.com] > Sent: Tuesday, September 14, 2004 5:56 AM > To: php-windows@lists.php.net > Subject: [PHP-WIN] Reading mapped drive with PHP5 > > > Hi, > > No response received after my request yesterday, so I'll try again. > > I have a script that copies a file from a mapped drive on my > local network > and places it in a particular directory on my laptop.
