Description:
------------
Running IIS 6 on Windows 2003 server. 

After an update to the most recent version of php 5.1.2, for some reacon a function handling uploaded using is_file stopped working. is_file failed for existing files. I fixed it by changing is_file to file_exists, then it worked again. Prior to the update, in the older version, presumably it was 5.0.1, is_file worked just fine without problems.


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
echo 'is_file:' . (is_file($_FILES['myfile']['tmp_name']) ? 'true' : 'false');
echo 'file_exists:' . (file_exists($_FILES['myfile']['tmp_name']) ? 'true' : 'false');
 ?>
<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post">
<input type="file" name="myfile" />
<input type="submit" />
</form>

Expected result:
----------------
is_file:truefile_exists:true

Actual result:
--------------
is_file:falsefile_exists:true

What do you get if you add var_dump($_FILES['myfile']['tmp_name']); to your code?
 [2006-04-24 06:18 UTC] kimmo dot laine at zarga dot net
adding var_dump($_FILES['myfile']['tmp_name']); to the code
echoes the following: 

string(27) "C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\phpAC2A.tmp"

Same bug found in Windows 2000 server IIS and PHP Version 4.3.11

I experience this bug as well (PHP 5.2.8 running on IIS 6.0 on Windows 2003 Server).

- file_exists returns false (error)
- is_uploaded file returns true (good)
- fopen(..., 'r') works as well as file_get_contents (good)

I can say that before we upgraded from PHP 5.1.x to PHP 5.2.8, this bug
was not there.

I posted same message to Bug #38308.
