Description:
------------
Warning: ftp_nlist() [function.ftp-nlist]: Unable to create temporary file. Check permissions in temporary files directory. in /web/browse.inc.php on line 181


Warning: ftp_rawlist() [function.ftp-nlist]: Unable to create temporary file. Check permissions in temporary files directory. in /web/browse.inc.php on line 181



/tmp is chmod 777 and other temporary directory is 777 too.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$rawlist = ftp_rawlist($conn_id, "-a");
$rawlist = ftp_rawlist($conn_id, "");

$rawlist = ftp_nlist($conn_id, "-a");
$rawlist = ftp_nlist($conn_id, "");

Expected result:
----------------
Warning: ftp_nlist() [function.ftp-nlist]: Unable to create temporary file. Check permissions in temporary files directory. /web/browse.inc.php on line 181



Actual result:
--------------
list all files to array.

vi /root/.bashrc

Add "TMPDIR=/tmp" 

save & exit;

Restart httpd

run php:
var_dump(tmpfile());

Now that you've changed your environment variable settings, and gotten tmpfile() to work, do ftp_nlist() and/or ftp_rawlist() work as expected?

In php ver. 4.3.8 the temporary file have creates with chmod 600 and belongs to root, in that case apache can`t operate on that file and reports: 

Warning: ftp_rawlist(): Unable to create temporary file. Check permissions in temporary files directory

Hello PHP-bug-Crew,

the bug from function ftp_nlist() is in PHP5.2.0 always still present.

If I set permissions on /tmp to 777, and the safemod open_basedir restriction is in effect, PHP is blocking access by using ftp_nlist().


For fixing the problem, I be very happy.

Best Regards

You can set the TMPDIR value with the putenv().

Example:
putenv("TMPDIR=/path/to/public_html/tmp");

Be sure to put it back to what it was before if you are on a shared server environment.
