PHP rename() doesn't throws exception on error

Question

I'm working with a php application, and there is a line that moves a file. I enclosed the method within a try...catch block so, if a error is thrown, can manage a rollback system. But the exception is never catched, so, renames throws any kind of exception? Do I need to try with another method?

Thanks

Code above:

try{
   if(rename($archivo_salida, $ruta_archivos)){
    //anything;
   }

}catch (Exception $e)
  //do something
}

"Normal" PHP functions don't throw exceptions.

Change your code to simulate an exception:

try{
   if(rename($archivo_salida, $ruta_archivos)){
      //anything;
   } else {
      throw new Exception('Can not rename file'.$archivo_salida);
   }
}catch (Exception $e)
   //do something
}
