The function "file_exists()" causes following PHP warning
on solaris8, if the file does not exist.
If the file exists the function works correctly.

Warning: file_exists() [function.file-exists]: Unable to access ...

On linux with the same setup (php 4.3.0 and apache 1.3.27)
it works fine! (The sun is a mirror from the linux box)

Is your solaris server using the safe_mode and/or open_basedir ini directives?
 [2003-02-11 16:12 UTC] marchart at marchart dot at 
Yes!

safe_mode               = On
safe_mode_exec_dir      = /usr/local/php/bin
open_basedir            = /www

Filesystemlayout, usernames/uids/gids and 
php.ini are ident to my linux box, where this is 
running fine

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip

At least one bug associated with warnings in file_exists & safe_mode has been fixed in latest CVS. So, try the latest CVS and see if that fixes the problem, if it does not please reply with all of the errors generated by the function.

The warnings disappear when specifying the
full path of the file.

Same problem also with function "is_file()"

Best Regards!

Was this last comment for the PHP 4.3.1-dev version?
(the latest STABLE snapshot) If so, please update the
version to be '4.3.1-dev'.

One thing you could check is that all the directories
in the path to the file have the same uid/gid/permission
that is required for the file.

(This is actually another bug which I can't find now.)

No feedback was provided. The bug is being suspended because
we assume that you are no longer experiencing the problem.
If this is not the case and you are able to provide the
information that was requested earlier, please do so and
change the status of the bug back to "Open". Thank you.

This "cosmetic problem" also appears under Winodws.
