This has to be understood literally as a duplicate, not dismiss. We dont need multiple open tickets about the same thing, so for this reason. To check that it is indeed a multibyte filename issue, I'll describe how I checkit: - in an arbitrary dir create two files zzzzzzzzz_Ελλάδα.txt and zzzzzzzzz_ellada.txt - list the files with the commando dir /x, the relevant part i see here is 07/31/2013 12:22 AM 0 ZZZZZZ~2.TXT zzzzzzzzz_ellada.txt 07/31/2013 12:22 AM 0 ZZZZZZ~1.TXT zzzzzzzzz_ε???δα.txt - do these simple runs > php -r "var_dump(fopen('ZZZZZZ~2.TXT', 'r'));" resource(5) of type (stream) > php -r "var_dump(fopen('ZZZZZZ~1.TXT', 'r'));" Warning: fopen(ZZZZZZ~1.TXT): failed to open stream: Invalid argument in Command line code on line 1 bool(false) The file without multibyte chars in the name can be opened. Also, do you notice that question marks in the other filename? Those have to be handled. Despite of how good the other old and new programs are, PHP doesn't support this at the moment. That isn't a thing of belief but the fact. As a dessert I'd suggest you to read this ticket from not very recent past about how it's going in python http://bugs.python.org/issue13247 :) Cheers Anatol -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
