I am trying to create symlink in php with following code:
$link = (session_save_path() ? session_save_path() : sys_get_temp_dir()) . "/sess_" . $this->generateSessionId($_REQUEST['broker'], $_REQUEST['token']);
if (!file_exists($link)) $attached = symlink('sess_' . session_id(), $link);
if (!$attached) trigger_error("Failed to attach; Symlink wasn't created.".$link, E_USER_ERROR);
I am using domain name instead of localhost. I tried to run this code on
Windows 7 with Apache, and Windows 8 with IIS / IIS Express / Apache
Everytime I get same error in logs as follows:
symlink(): Could not fetch file information(error 2)
It would be great if someone can help me out in this, I already spent whole night on this thing.
Finally I found the problem.
I don't know how this code has worked for me before.
But now I checked the full path of file. It was simply session save path was different than temporary files path. So I used same session path in both links and it worked for me.
Still Thank you guys to provide me help about it.

I am wrestling with a problem. I stripped the example to this script that can be run as stand-alone application:
<?php
if(file_exists("x")){
print "<div>Deleting dir</dir>";
rmdir("x");
} else {
print "<div>Not exists</dir>";
}
clearstatcache();
mkdir("x");
If I call it repeatedly (F5 in browser) then sometimes this error occurs:
Deleting dir
Warning: mkdir(): Permission denied in F:\EclipseWorkspaces\Ramses\www\deploy\stripped_example.php on line 9
10-20 times it works OK and next time this error occurs. I googled more users has this problem but without solution.
https://github.com/getgrav/grav/issues/467
My example creates the directory in cwd, where anybody has full control. In addition the mkdir $mode parameter is ignored in windows. After the error the "x" directory truly not exists and in next attempt (F5) it is always created without error. I hopped later added "clearstatcache()" will help but nope.
In my full application I am using full file path. The deleted directory is not empty and I must clean it first. After successfull deleting the error occurs almost always.
My system is Windows 7, PHP 7.0.5, Apache 2.4
Windows doesn't let you delete things if another process is accessing them.
Check if your antivirus or some other process is opening the folder.
You can check this in resource monitor, from task manager.
Try the code with additional check on existing:
<?php
if(is_dir("x")){
print "<div>Deleting dir</dir>";
rmdir("x");
} else {
print "<div>Not exists</dir>";
}
clearstatcache();
if (!is_dir("x")) {
mkdir("x");
}
Had the same problem with Windows 10, Xampp and PHP 7. Problem was Kaspersky Internet Security, scanning and blocking the directory. Disabling KIS mkdir always works for me. Instead of directly recreating you can try rename, if disabling security software is not an option for you.
$time = time();
mkdir($path . $time);
rename($path . $time, $path);

im trying to parse pdf to text via PHP and XPDF (pdftotext.exe). On my localhost everythings works well, but when im trying to move everything on server, im getting into troubles.
First of all i checked some settings on server and safe_mode is off, exec is not disabled and permissions are rwxrwxrwx.
Then im trying this
$command = "\\\\149.223.22.11\\cae\\04_Knowledge-base\\tools\\pdftotext.exe -enc UTF-8 ". $fileName . " \\\\149.223.22.11\\cae\\04_Knowledge-base\\output.txt";
$result = exec($command,$output,$args);
echo shell_exec($command);
which isnt working. When i look into $result, $output, are empty, but $args returns 1 which coresponds to Incorrect function by this document windows system error codes
Whole command looks like \\149.223.22.11\cae\04_Knowledge-base\tools\pdftotext.exe -enc UTF-8 \\149.223.22.11\cae\04_Knowledge-base\testpdf\04_egerland_final_paper.pdf \\149.223.22.11\cae\04_Knowledge-base\output.txt and when is dirrectly inputed into commandline, its working.
So im a bit out of ideas. Have someone any hint?
edit 20160201 - aditional trying
So i made aditional tests and when im trying to run similar command with exec from localhost (target .exe file, input and output file is in same location, only im using localhost not server) its working. Im now checking differences in server settings. So can here be problem, that localhosts Server Api is Apache 2.0 Handler and server is CGI/FASTCGI?
So it was all mistake on my side. I badly checked IIS permissions and forgot to assign user to virtual directory which i wana to access. So my only advice and more wisdom from this is to double (maybe triple) check if you have all permissions set correctly.
I am using ZendFramwork1, my local sever php 5.4. and with MongoDB .I have use function Zend_Pdf to draw PDF in my project. it's run well in my local server. but when i put code to sever that have same version PHP.

Any one can help me . what's different between my local server and real sever ?
I am looking to see your reply soon.
thank
First off, chmod 777 is a hack and shouldn't really be used. If you're using apache, you are better off chown'ing the folder to the correct user.
$tmpUploadFolder = "C:\\www\\intranet\\uploads";
//$finalUploadFolder = "file:////server//photos//overwrite";
$finalUploadFolder = "file://server/photos/overwrite";
//$finalUploadFolder = "\\\\server\\photos\\overwrite";
//$finalUploadFolder = "\\server\photos\overwrite";
//$finalUploadFolder = "P:\\overwrite";
//$finalUploadFolder = "P:/overwrite";
$from = $tmpUploadFolder . "\\" . $_REQUEST['ext'];
$to = $finalUploadFolder. "\\" . $_REQUEST['ext'];
copy($from, $to);
I am trying to do a PHP upload using a jquery tool. The Jquery tool nicely places the file onto the PHP upload dir before the page submit. So i want to (upon post of the form) quickly move the file from it's tmp folder location (it'll already be there you see) to it's final destination on an image store server (I use the _REQUEST['ext'] variable to hold the filename jquery held.
Rest assured these paths are good they work lovely in dos. As you can see I have tried every known unc syntax I know.
I cannot for the life of me get php to work I have written a VBS "copy . file" and tried to trigger it under whost.exe via system() in php, i've downloaded the oldeskool runas.exe and tried to get it to copy via system(), I have used unc paths and network shares, and mapped network drives, I have made apache service "log on as " administraor and even a custom adhoc new user made just for this and given it full permissions
It works fine if I change P:\ to C:\
I KNOW IT'S EFECTIVE PERMISSONS RE: APACHE - BUT WE DO NOT RUN ACTIVE DIRECTORY AND I CAN'T GET IT TO WORK
it simply will not let me copy this file onto a network and this is a major major MAJOR problem child for me.
Is there a solution? If you are going to help me with things like "it's file permissions" then I am going to need a break down of exact and careful instructions because I am pulling my hair out because I know it's file permissions rights but I just can't get it to work
I am tired now.. please help?
ok I figured it out so for the benefit of those going after me here is the solution THAT WORKS
1.make sure php windows "apache2.2" service is running as a administrator user (I made a user called apacheusr and gave it a password and popped it into local administrators) you do this by right clicking properties on the "apache2.2" service in administrative tools->services and going to the logon tab->this account and picking the apacheusr
2.because I don't run active directory I made this apacheusr user on BOTH machines (phpserver/ imageserver) as a local administrator user and gave them BOTH the same username password and tick password never expires.
3.I then log in/out at least once onto windows with both these accounts. (don't ask me why but it seemed to help, it stopped the runasexe --that I gave up with-- moaning in dos)
4.finally on the php server right click share the destination folder on imageserver and make damn well sure this apacheusr can log in to that folder. The simplest way to do this is when you log/in/out as apacheusr on your php server and try to go to your image server folder - you then need to be on the imagesever and tick everything correctly in the share/permissions bit
THEN the final bit is (where _REQUEST['ext'] is a file name EG: "pic.jpg")
$tmpUploadFolder = "C:\\www\\intranet\\uploads";
$finalUploadFolder = "\\\\server\\photos\\overwrite";
$from = $tmpUploadFolder . "\\" . $_REQUEST['ext'];
$to = $finalUploadFolder. "\\" . $_REQUEST['ext'];
copy($from, $to);
The above code works!
In what environment do you run php? Apache? IIS? These run most of the time as a service with System Credentials and cannot access Network shares...
Change the Webserver Account to a User that can write and it should work (with one of those URLs at least)
I've setup ActivePerl on my Windows machine and can run Perl scripts on WAMP. I am setting up Uber-Uploader and now it just telling me ERROR: Failed to find flength file.
I've set all the paths in uber.ini and in the Perl script. I guess there's something missing out there. :(
The errors you're getting are in the PHP scripts.
The name for the file that's missing is set like this:
$flength_file = $TEMP_DIR . $UPLOAD_ID . '.dir/' . $UPLOAD_ID . '.flength';
Try looking into that and please also edit your tags to include php instad of perl.
