From: dougal at gunters dot org Assigned: langemeijer (profile)

PHP Version: 7.0.2 OS: Linux (Ubuntu 14.04)
Private report: No CVE-ID: None

Description:
------------
Trying to use functions like is_dir(), is_file(), or any other stat() based function is failing when using an ssh2.sftp resource. Sample warning:

PHP Warning:  filemtime(): stat failed for ssh2.sftp://Resource id #5/etc/issue.net in /home/dougal/test/ssh.php on line 54

Using PHP 7.0.1, php-ssh2 0.12-dev

The same code works fine on a system running PHP 5.6.14 and php-ssh2 0.12


Test 

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$user = "myusername";
$pass = "mypassword";
$host = "localhost";
$path = "/some/file/that/exists";

$session = ssh2_connect($host, 22);
ssh2_auth_password($session, $user, $pass);
$sftp = ssh2_sftp($session);

$sshpath = "ssh2.sftp://$sftp$path";

$stat = stat($path); // works
$statpath = stat($sshpath); // doesn't work
$stat_sftp = ssh2_sftp_stat($sftp, $path); // works

$stream = fopen($sshpath, 'r');
$stat_stream = fstat($stream); // works


Expected result:
----------------
There should be no warnings. stat(), is_file(), is_dir(), etc. should return correct results for $sshpath.


Actual result:
--------------
PHP Warning:  stat(): stat failed for ssh2.sftp://Resource id #5/home/dougal/testfile.txt in /home/dougal/test/ssh-test.php on line 13

Hi!
I am the one who ported SSH2 (incorrectly) to PHP 7. Working on a fix for this now, and a test to go with it. Thanks for reporting this

Great @seander, thanks for the update, looking forward to the update.

Oh, and I found another related ticket:
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71047

Pretty positive that's the same issue.

Hi @seander, many thanks for your work on this.  Do you know if/when it's likely to be resolved?  I'm just updating systems to PHP7 and have come across this issue.  Using PHP 7.0.6-dev, Ubuntu 14.04, libssh2-php 0.12-1build1 amd64

This might well be fixed with this commit:

https://github.com/php/pecl-networking-ssh2/commit/17680cf039f0cfac53b5a2531fdb715b95e9cc42

Could you try current master and see if the problem is solved?

Hi,

I can confirm that this file_exists() on ssh2.sftp paths starts to behave correctly when using code from master.

Solved Wordpress upgrades in php7 over ssh2 for me, as described here:
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/35517

So I think you can consider this solved :)

This same bug appears to be exist also in PHP 5.6.36. Is there a separate ticket for that version? Which PHP version in the 5.6 channel will have the fix?

I'm having the problem, and found this person too: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/41030
