From: spacefreak at rheintalchat dot ch Operating system: Gentoo Linux (Kernel 2.6.8.1) PHP version: 4.3.9 PHP Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function Bug description: readfile needs too much memory
Description: ------------ I've got a big problem. I use the readfile function for share any files over the webserver. I use it, because I need user authentication. It works nice with small files. Actual result: -------------- The problem is that. PHP will load the hole file from the harddisc into the memory. If I use the fpassthru function, the memory will be freed, but PHP use the hole memory for buffering. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30520&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=float MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30520&r=mysqlcfg
