DirectoryIterator not working -- HELP

[KaptainBlazzed]

I have a script the iterates through my directories allowing users to transverse and download files.

 

It was up and running just fine until i switched servers, both were running PHP 5.x.x and ISS 7.

 

The issue is no matter what directory i run the script in, the DirectoryIterator returns a bunch of "." or a "$Recycle.Bin" if i set it to the look in "C:/"

 

 

Here is the code:

<?

$cwd = "c:/";

foreach (new DirectoryIterator($cwd) as $file) {

echo $file->getFilename(). "\n";

}

?>

 

Here is the output from "C:/"

$Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin $Recycle.Bin

 

Here is the output if is set $cwd to "."

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

 

I can not figure this out and am beginning to think it is a permissions issue.

 

any help would be appreciated.

Wouldn't that be because C:\ is underneith the public directory and you can't 'serve' these files?

 

Try getcwd

[KaptainBlazzed]

getcwd() returns the following

 

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

 

 

I have tried it in several different directories, including my web root and it always returns the same result, a bunch of "."

 

i do however get a different # of "." depending on the directory.

Try that and postback the output:

 

$dir = new DirectoryIterator(dirname(__FILE__));
foreach ($dir as $fileinfo) {
    if (!$fileinfo->isDot()) {
        var_dump($fileinfo->getFilename());
    }
}

Try that and postback the output:

 

$dir = new DirectoryIterator(dirname(__FILE__));
foreach ($dir as $fileinfo) {
    if (!$fileinfo->isDot()) {
        var_dump($fileinfo->getFilename());
    }


}

 

No output because they are all "."

 

This is really starting to bug me and i can not figure it out.

 

Could it be a setting in the config file?

this work for me:

 

<?php 
  
   $path = 'C:/TEST/';

   foreach (new DirectoryIterator($path) as $fileInfo) {
       if($fileInfo->isDot()) continue;

       echo $fileInfo->getFilename() . "<br>\n";
   }	

?>

 

You should look at RecursiveDirectoryIterator too

After some more research, i believe it is a permissions issue.

 

The old server was running on Windows 7, and the new one is Server 2008 r2.

 

Not sure how to fix it, any help would be appreciated.
