I know how this is meant. But without the added patch, it does not corrupt
error_reporting. The problem is that your patch is not compatible to a
webserver that runs more than one request per process (a multithreaded one),
because it modifies the ini setting in a way that affects later running
threads.
I try to find a way to reproduce it in other webservers.
This is the code that NSAPI uses to modify the INI entries:
entry->param->name is the nullterminated ini key name, entry->param->value
is the nullteminated value. This code runs on every request (like in apache
a php_(admin)_value) that needs to set some specific ini-values. The server
runs only *one* process that handles all requests in its lifetime because it
is multithreaded:
if (zend_alter_ini_entry(entry->param->name, strlen(entry->param->name)+1,
entry->param->value, strlen(entry->param->value),
PHP_INI_SYSTEM, PHP_INI_STAGE_ACTIVATE)==FAILURE) {
log_error(LOG_WARN, pblock_findval("fn", NSG(pb)), NSG(sn), NSG(rq),
"Cannot change php.ini key \"%s\" to \"%s\"", entry->param->name,
entry->param->value);
}
. It is always runned with admin "privileges" because SJSWS does not have
htaccess files. The big advantage to have the possibility to set ini values
is, that it is not server-wide you can change the call to PHP SAPI e.g. per
virtual server or URI path (see documentation of NSAPI).
