Summary

0003899: Bogus error when adding a documention file without drive spec

Description

On the proj_doc_add_page.php page (Docs->Add File), I tried to upload a file by manually typing the path "\temp\foofile.txt" in the "Select File" field. The response was a "No file specified" error.

Same response if I use a network path like "\\localhost\temp\foofile.txt". It succeeds if I include the drive letter, e.g., "c:\temp\foofile.txt". I noticed that specifying a nonexisting file name using the drive letter also fails in the same way, e.g. "c:\nosuchfile".

I would like to see an error message explaining that the file I specified could not be found, if that's what the situation is, rather than saying I didn't enter anything at all.

I could not find documentation explaining what the valid path types for this feature are.

This problem seems similar to 0003235, which was closed as a duplicate of a bug that's marked as fixed.
