ID: 43817 Comment by: d at hp23c dot dk Reported by: losd at mail dot dk Summary: opendir() fails on Windows directories with parent directory unaccessible Status: Assigned Type: Bug Package: Directory function related Operating System: win32 only - Windows Server 2003 PHP Version: 5.3.0beta1 Assigned To: pajoye Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: In Windows, it _does not matter_ if it is C:\fOo or c:\foo. If you do not lowercase (or uppercase, or whatever) to compare, it is a bug. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-01-14 11:26:46] paj...@php.net Ok, the actual issue is about setting the right permissions. It is possible to block read&write and other operations but the read of the attribute of a given path must be allowed. It is used by almost all file functions (Find*, GetLong/ShortPathName, etc.). Without the permissions allowing to read attributes, we won't be able to fetch the actual name (ie: c:\Foo is given but the actual name is c:\fOo). We used the actual to store it in the real cache and avoid to have to lower case all paths before each file operation. Can you try to set the perms correctly and tell me if it works out for you? Should work on any windows supported version. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-01-10 12:34:52] paj...@php.net Quick notice to help to understand the problem describe here: The main problem here is that FindFirstFile requires access to all elements of a given path, which is not the case here. To work around this limitation while keeping the realpath cache working nicely is not that easy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-10-18 11:49:00] y dot korotia at hotmail dot com are you going to fix it for Windows or not?

Directory is in the root of system disk, directories inside wwwroot are not affected. If started from CMD with Admin - no error, error comes only in case of IUSR-IIS calls.
