I have a mapped network drive called M local to my machine which I am trying to access through php. The folder which I am trying to access from M drive is in_folder present inside music folder. This is what I have tried:
<?php
$src_dir = '\\\\younetworkdrive\\music\\in_folder'; // in_folder is the the folder present on a network drive M inside music folder
$user = "mickeymouse";
$pass = "waltdisney";
$drive_letter = "M";
system("net use ".$drive_letter.": \"".$src_dir."\" ".$pass." /user:".$user." /persistent:no>nul 2>&1");
$location = $drive_letter.":/";
if ($handle = opendir($location)) {
while (false !== ($entry = readdir($handle))) {
echo "$entry";
}
closedir($handle);
}
$mp4_files = preg_grep('~\.(mp4)$~', scandir($src_dir));
$xml_files = preg_grep('~\.(xml)$~', scandir($src_dir));
?>
Problem Statement:
I tried with the php code above but it doesn't seem to work. Unfortunately, I don't have logs setup so I am unable to track the error. I am wondering if there is any mistake in the php code above.
