Please check if you changed the error_reporting() level.

Feedback.

This has been discussed, but I don't remeber the conclusion.
Anyone remember that?

I think we need consistent rule for error messages....

Status = Duplicate

Here is my conversation with Mike Rodgers. Maybe it will help to remember the conclusion of previous discussion.

Agreed.
    These changes should be made into toggles.  If you ask me, if the file
doesn't exist, it's not a file.  That shouldn't be an error message.

This is fixed in CVS.

Same problem appeared with is_dir() function. In this case I think we should check is_readable(), is_writable() and is_writeable() functions as well.
