Deletes all files

[brentmoeller]

when the blow code is ran it produces this warning error

 

Warning: filemtime() [function.filemtime]: stat failed for 048_Baby_Colors.png in /home/public_html/.com/kill.php on line 23

 

 

The code deletes all the files in the directory no matter how many hours or seconds ago they was last modified. could someone help me figure out why?

<?php

$dir = '/home/br/public_html/l.com/dfile';

if ($handle = opendir($dir)) {


    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {

        if ($file[0] == '.' || is_dir("$dir/$file")) {


            continue;

        }

        if ((time() - filemtime($file)) > ($days * 604800)) {

            unlink("$dir/$file");

        }

    }

    closedir($handle);

}

?>

What do you get if you echo the filemtime() value? Does it appear to be a valid timestamp?

0 * 604800 is zero and just about every (time() - filemtime($file) is going to be greater than zero.

This seems to indicate that the system could not find the file that you passed to filemtime(). Since it also shows the filename it was looking for, you can see that there is no directory path specified in the value passed to filemtime(). I think you need to add the directory you are searching to that call:

 

filemtime($dir . '/' . $file)
