[bobe1309]

I am tying to open a file with :

$filename = $SESSION["repCreator"].$SESSION["RepID"].".txt";
$fp = fopen('/web/docs/housing_project/'."reports/".$filename, "r") or die('could not open file '.$filename);

$fp = fopen('/web/docs/housing_project/'."reports/".stripslashes($_SESSION["Uname"]).$_SESSION["RepID"].".txt", "w");

  $_SESSION["rdesc"] = "null";  fread($fp, filesize($filename)) or die('error opening fin file '.$filename);
fclose($fp);

Warning: stat failed for 1231.txt (errno=2 - No such file or directory) in /web/docs/housing_project/load.php on line 130
error opening fin file 1231.txt

but file 1231.txt exists..hmmmm

Anything would help.... Thanks tons!!!!

Hi,
the second "$fp=fopen" overwrite the first one, and you open it as new file (with "w"...)

So when you fread, the file don't exist (or better exist for write...)

To fix, you change second $fp as $fp2:

 
$filename = $_SESSION["repCreator"].$_SESSION["RepID"].".txt"; 

$fp = fope('/web/docs/housing_project/'."reports/".$filename, "r") 
         or die('could not open file '.$filename); 

$fp2 = fopen('/web/docs/housing_project/'."reports/".stripslashes($_SESSION["Uname"]).$_SESSION["RepID"].".txt", "w"); 

$_SESSION["rdesc"] = "null"; 

fread($fp, filesize($filename)) or die('error opening fin file '.$filename);

fclose($fp); 

I hope this help you
