ID: 47126 Comment by: t dot weber at digi-info dot de Reported by: a dot u dot savchuk at gmail dot com Summary: copy() caches incorrect stat info of file-target Status: No Feedback Type: Bug Package: Filesystem function related Operating System: linux PHP Version: 5.2.8 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Since the original reporter doesnât seem to be interested in it anymore, Iâm speaking up. This bug is still present in PHP 5.3.10. I agree with the original reporter that the documentation should be updated. However, I have not looked into PHPâs source code and cannot comment on his proposed solution.

When you copy file to _already_ existed file-target, then info of this file-target will be cached before rewrite. Workaround here is usage of clearstatcache(). Also other problem is that copy() function is not listed in list of cached functions in manual for clearstatcache(). As i understand from source code, the problem is that copy() uses php_stream_stat_path_ex() [ _php_stream_stat_path() ] function which stores stat info in cache. Correct solutions are: 1. add parameter to php_stream_stat_path_ex() to not store info to cache and call it for destination path in php_copy_file_ex() 2. clear cache after successfull call of php_stream_stat_path_ex() for destination path in php_copy_file_ex(). Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $source = '/t1.t'; $target = '/t2.t'; file_put_contents($source, 'aaaaaaaaaa'); file_put_contents($target, 'a'); clearstatcache( true ); copy( $source, $target ); var_dump( filesize($target) ); ?> Expected result: ---------------- int(10) Actual result: -------------- int(1) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47126&edit=1
