From: patrik dot hirvinen at nemein dot com Operating system: Mac OS X 10.5 PHP version: 5.2.6 PHP Bug Type: *Regular Expressions Bug description: preg_match returns false negative on > 100 kB strings for some patterns
Description: ------------ preg_match fails for some patterns when the searched string exceeds around 100300 bytes. It matches for same strings if enough text is removed from the middle part which gets captured by the pattern when working correctly. Also the exact same regexp works fine for perl on unshortened output. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php //foo.html >= 100 kB $contents = file_get_contents("foo.html"); $matches = array(); preg_match('%<BODY\s*>.*?</H[1-6]>(.+?)</BODY>%si', $contents, $matches); //$matches is empty var_dump($matches); ?> Expected result: ---------------- array(1) { [0]=> string(12935) "/*lots of html*/ } Actual result: -------------- array(0) { } -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46664&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=fixedcvs Fixed in CVS and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46664&r=mysqlcfg
