Project: Drupal -Version: cvs +Version: 4.5.2 Component: file system Category: bug reports Priority: critical Assigned to: Anonymous Reported by: ccourtne Updated by: dan90@drupal.org Status: patch This also fixed my file upload problems with some nonstandard paths under Linux/apache, php 4.3.4 drupal 4.5.2. maybe we should remove mention of windows 2000? dan90@drupal.org Previous comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ September 16, 2004 - 13:46 : ccourtne Currently file_check_location is always returning false when passed a file as the $source path. If a directory is passed in $soruce file_check_location works. I've tracked this down to realpath returning an empty string when passed a relative path which points to a file. This probably goes unnoticed if you are using the file.api's to construct relative paths to the druapl file directory since check_location failing just causes the durpal file directory to get added which is what you wanted in the first place. Replacing this line $source = realpath(dirname($source)); with this $source = realpath(dirname($source)); fixes it on my windows box using PHP 4.3.8. I don't have things set up to do patches on my windows boxes here at work yet. I'll submit a formal patch tonight. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ September 16, 2004 - 13:47 : ccourtne Dag nabit.

I tested this approach on my server and it works.
