In case that file $file does not exist, invoking:

file_exists($file);

displays warning message, which should not take place.

I've noticed bug report for similar problem for 4.2.1, which was then
"fixed in CVS". Deja vu? ;)

What is the exact text of the warning message?

On three different platforms I'm unable to reproduce this bug.  Please provide a bit more detail to this bug.

I'm still unable to reproduce this.  Can this be a case of directory permissions maybe?  

 [2003-01-08 18:14 UTC] books at medianet dot pl

Each and every directory has at least "r-x" permissions. 
The file being tested does not exist, and haven't been there for months (if ever).

Are you running in safe_mode?

If so, what are the settings of the safe_mode related ini values?

 [2003-01-09 03:34 UTC] books at medianet dot pl

safe_mode On On 
safe_mode_exec_dir /opt/local/bin /opt/local/bin 
safe_mode_gid Off Off 
safe_mode_include_dir no value no value 
safe_mode_allowed_env_vars PHP_ PHP_ 
safe_mode_protected_env_vars LD_LIBRARY_PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH 

The problematic check is for (non-existing) file within directory tree accessible to http server.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged
every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can
grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/.
 
In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at
http://www.php.net/manual/.

In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

file_exists() will no longer throw errors when in safe_mode
