Debian vs Ubuntu

[era404design]

This is possibly user error and not a package issue.
I've got two servers, both with the same version of this package:

cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)"

php -v
PHP 7.4.33 (cli) (built: Jan  7 2023 08:30:58) ( NTS )

smbclient -V
Version 4.9.5-Debian

and

cat /etc/os-release
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION="16.04.7 LTS (Xenial Xerus)"

php -v
PHP 7.4.18 (cli) (built: May  3 2021 11:26:29) ( NTS )

smbclient -V
Version 4.3.11-Ubuntu

The debian system can list shares, list directory contents, and perform file transfers
The ubuntu system can list shares, but cannot list directory contents, and consequently, cannot perform transfers.

I've tried command-line smb and have no problems with ubuntu, it's purely a PHP/package issue, it seems.

Is this a known problem, or is it just my setup?

Thanks

Note: #115
I'm not sure this is related, but i'm seeing the same result -- no fault, just an empty directory contents object.

FYI: tested afterward on a newer Ubuntu system:

cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS"
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION_ID="22.04"

php -v
PHP 7.4.33 (cli) (built: Sep  2 2023 08:03:46) ( NTS )

smbclient -V
Version 4.15.13-Ubuntu

Everything on this setup is working as expected.

Hi @era404design - Are you using smbclient (Wrapped) or libsmbclient-php/libsmbclient (Native) mode?

I've tried command-line smb and have no problems with ubuntu, it's purely a PHP/package issue, it seems.

How does the output compare between the two versions when doing this via the smbclient CLI:

cd <path>
dir
cd /

i.e. basically manually simulating what the dir() here does (at least when Wrapped):

SMB/src/Wrapped/Share.php

Lines 174 to 186 in 8531ffd

	public function dir(string $path): array {
	$escapedPath = $this->escapePath($path);
	$output = $this->execute('cd ' . $escapedPath);
	//check output for errors
	$this->parseOutput($output, $path);
	$output = $this->execute('dir');
	$this->execute('cd /');
	return $this->parser->parseDir($output, $path, function (string $path) {
	return $this->getAcls($path);
	});
	}

You might also try applying the contents of #115.
