The following would destroy test1 if test2 is a link to test1: copy("test1", "test2"); Reproduce code: --------------- copy("test", "test"); Expected result: ---------------- Nothing happens or a file open error. Actual result: -------------- Contents in source file is lost. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32160&edit=1
