[ACCEPTED]-Append date to filename before copy in php-copy
Try it using a date format that doesn't 3 include colons. Colons are not permitted 2 in Windows filenames, and perhaps other 1 filesystem types.
// Try, for example
$fileD = "file".date('m-d-Y-His A e').".csv";
As far as I see, your problem is because 2 of identifier:
e Timezone identifier (added in PHP 5.1.0) Examples: UTC, GMT, Atlantic/Azores
But filename can't be with 1 "/" inside. Try using another date format
You know, I'm always wary of putting spaces 3 in file names, call it a throwback to the 2 80's and 90's. What happens if you just 1 try:
var_dump(preg_replace('-\W-','_',date('m-d-Y H:i:s A e')));
You could do:
$fileD = "file".$date.".csv";
Or:
$fileD = "file{$date}.csv";

When you concatenate a statement (such as 3 your date function) it should not be surrounded 2 by quotes. So your second example should 1 work written like so:
$fileD = "file".date('m-d-Y H:i:s A e').".csv";
Try this utility function:
public static function appendDateTimeToFileName($fileName) {
$appended = date('_Y_m_d_H_i_s');
$dotCount = substr_count($fileName, '.');
if (!$dotCount) {
return $fileName . $appended;
}
$extension = pathinfo($fileName, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
$fileName = pathinfo($fileName, PATHINFO_FILENAME);
return $fileName . $appended . '.' . $extension;
}
Example:
sample.jpg -> sample_2017_02_19_01_09_10.jpg
sample -> sample_2017_02_19_01_09_44
