Description:
------------
The upload_tmp_dir directive is set in the php.ini to "C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1.HQ-\LOCALS~1\Temp\php\upload" and shows up as such when running phpinfo().  However, when I try to upload a file it fails,  and print_r($_FILES) reports that "tmp_name" is set to "C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\[filename]".  It appears that the directive is being ignored in favor of the environment variable, which is contrary to the documentation.  

PHP5.2.5/IIS6.0/Windows Server 2003

A search of the bug database turned up bug #39451 which appears to be similar but was marked as fixed in 5.2.1RC3.

Is that path writable/readable by the user with which the webserver runs as?
 [2008-03-13 13:17 UTC] jturner at paycomonline dot com 
Yes, the IWAM and IUSR accounts both have read, write, and list folder contents rights in the ACL for that directory. I forgot to mention yesterday that I have PHP set to run as an ISAPI module.

It seems I have the same problem.
Exactly the same configuration.
Any workaround?

Thanx

I'm not totally sure, but I think its somehow related to the path like: X:\dir~1\..., can you try without using the ~N syntax?

Experiencing exactly the same thing... I ran phpinfo() and it properly 
reflects the new php.ini setting in local and master, but the script 
keeps throwing an error saying "/var/tmp/phpiXsjk3" doesn't exist (the 
original path that i don't want to use).  What the F.

"/var/tmp/phpiXsjk3"? That's a linux path. Which php version do you use and on which platform?

I'm using php from debian package, PHP 5.2.13-0.dotdeb.0, that come with suhosin-patch 0.9.7, and i've written in my vhost configuration file this directive:

php_admin_value   open_basedir      /home/data/mysite.org/:/usr/lib/php

php_admin_value   upload_tmp_dir    /home/data/mysite.org/tmp/

but when i try to upload a file i receive this error:

PHP Warning:  file(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp/phpCtsVNF) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/data/mysite.org/:/usr/lib/php) in /home/data/mysite.org/file3.php on line 85

PHP Warning:  file(/tmp/phpCtsVNF): failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /home/data/mysite.org/file3.php on line 85

php is ignoring my directive, any workaround?

I had a same problem: Win2008R2, PHP 5.2.12, and (upload_tmp_dir != tmp_name) when uploading.
I had list the "upload_tmp_dir" on c:\ and in it was 65535(!) files php1.tmp - phpFFFF.tmp. After truncatig folder, PHP become upload files corectly to "upload_tmp_dir"
