This is indeed true.
As I sidenote, if you're running Apache on Windows, you can fix this
problem by running the server from the local user to which the network
drive is mapped, instead of running it as a system service.

I've had a similar problem trying to read a network file via the
include command.

This is file permissions issue, not a PHP bug.

Do not forget that the default SYSTEM User under windows (Services run
under this user by default, like Apache) DO NOT have access to mapped
network drives. Mapped network drives are mounted for a specific user
indeed and won't work for other users.

To verify this, just logon with another login/password and you won't
see your J: drive letter if you didn't mount it for this specific user.

//WORKS FINE
$cmd = "copy D:\\temp\\test.csv D:\\temp\\temp_2\\test2.csv";
system($cmd, $retval)
//FAILS!!
$cmd = "copy D:\\temp\\temp_2\\test.csv
J:\\10_Operational\\INLIFESUPPORT\\HELPDESK\\test.csv";
system($cmd, $retval);

yet checking the remote location in DOS... its all ok
C:\>copy D:\temp\temp_2\test.csv
J:\10_Operational\INLIFESUPPORT\HELPDESK\test.csv
        1 file(s) copied.



Reproduce code:

$filename = "test.csv";
$dir_remote = "J:\\10_Operational\\INLIFESUPPORT\\HELPDESK\\";
$dir_local = "D:\\temp\\";
$dir_local2 = "D:\\temp\\temp_2\\";
//works fine
copy($dir_local . $filename , $dir_local2 . $filename);
//does not work..
copy($dir_local . $filename , $dir_remote . $filename);
