From: gerd at php-tools dot net Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.2.5 PHP Bug Type: MSSQL related Bug description: mssql_connect returns NULL
Description: ------------ Well, I do have the same problem as stated in Bug #29993 - still it is not possible to add a comment to "bogus" bugs. Using a proper servername, username password, mssql_connect() returns NULL. Hence I cannot connect. In case anything is wrong e.g. the password, mssql_connect() returns FALSE - as expected. OS: Linux 2.6.21 PHP-Version: 5.2.5 I installed the following Debian packages: php5 5.2.5-3 server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language php5-cli 5.2.5-3 cli for the php5 scripting language php5-common 5.2.5-3 Common files for packages built from the php5 php5-mcrypt 5.2.5-3 MCrypt module for php5 php5-mhash 5.2.5-3 MHASH module for php5 php5-mysql 5.2.5-3 MySQL module for php5 php5-sybase 5.2.5-3 Sybase / MS SQL Server module for php5 regards, gERD Reproduce code: --------------- $dbc = mssql_connect('server', 'user', 'secret'); echo '<pre>' . var_export($dbc, true) . '</pre>'; Expected result: ---------------- $dbc!==null Actual result: -------------- $dbc===null -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44828&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44828&r=mysqlcfg
