Symfony-Cache文件夹中的临时文件

Question

I'm using Windows on some production machines (IIS with FastCGI-PHP). Since the update of one SF-Project to 1.3.x I notice some strange problems. The Server is "collecting" Temp-Files in the config-cache folder of the applications. They are named like con1718.tmp and always containing the autoload-config-cache. The tmp-files are not generated for every request but I have 1 or 2 new files every half an hour or so. If the application is running some days/months there are a lot of these Temp-Files (Megabytes of them).

Machine-Details: - Windows Server 2008 - IIS 7 - ZendServer? with PHP 5.2.11

Project with SF 1.3.3

Any ideas what the problem can be?

Answer 1

I checked out symfony 1.4 and saw this in the code:

     // Hack from Agavi (http://trac.agavi.org/changeset/3979)
     // With php < 5.2.6 on win32, renaming to an already existing file doesn't work, but copy does,
     // so we simply assume that when rename() fails that we are on win32 and try to use copy()
     if (!@rename($tmpFile, $cache))
     {
       if (copy($tmpFile, $cache))
       {
         unlink($tmpFile);
       }

     }

This piece of code should be in sfConfigCache.php on line 354, could you check you have this lines? If not, consider updating, or patching, and if yes, you could log $tmpFile before unlinking it, just to see if there is an attempt to unlink these files or not. To add more information log, you should try this code instead:

 if (!@rename($tmpFile, $cache))
 {
   sfContext::getInstance()->getLogger()->info('attempt to renaming ' . $tmpFile . ' failed, trying copy');
   if (copy($tmpFile, $cache))
   {
     sfContext::getInstance()->getLogger()->info('copy successful, now unlinking ' . $tmpFile);
     unlink($tmpFile);
   }
   else
   {
     sfContext::getInstance()->getLogger()->err('probem with copy for file '.$tmpFile);
   }

 }
