Kieran Menor Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 It seems more likely that it's the exec() causing the problem, to be honest. Why would you need to copy files that way anyway? PHP has a copy() function. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237969-big-problem-with-my-script/#findComment-1222765 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayJabber Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 I need to copy more than 1 file and i cannot find anything other than that. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237969-big-problem-with-my-script/#findComment-1222773 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran Menor Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 A simple loop would be fine for the task. Something like: foreach(glob('folder/*.*') as $file) { copy($file, 'destination/'.basename($file)); } Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237969-big-problem-with-my-script/#findComment-1222774 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kieran Menor Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Ah. Well in that case, you will need something slightly more advanced. Try looking in the user comments on the copy page. I'm sure you can find a snippet that will help you.

If you know what i mean if so then plz post it. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237969-big-problem-with-my-script/#findComment-1222797 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kieran Menor Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Well put the function at the start of your script. Then you can call copy_r('foldertocopy', 'destination') at any time.
