From: jeff at nokrev dot com Operating system: PHP version: 5.1.4 PHP Bug Type: Streams related Bug description: $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA Undefined without Content-type
Description: ------------ When making a PHP request, if the Content-type request header is undefined, $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is empty (or undefined, depending on the related ini setting). Reading from the input stream works correctly, and will read all content if the content-type is set or not. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php /* PRINT DEBUG INFO */ // Request method echo "Request Method: ".$_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']."\n"; // HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA echo "HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA: ".$HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA."\n"; // Input socket $inputSocket = fopen('php://input','rb'); $contents = stream_get_contents($inputSocket); fclose($inputSocket); echo "Input socket: ".$contents."\n"; ?> Expected result: ---------------- When Content-type request header not sent: Request Method: POST HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA: Input socket: post_contents Actual result: -------------- It should be the same as if reading from the input stream: Request Method: POST HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA: post_contents Input socket: post_contents -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37342&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=trysnapshot51 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37342&r=mysqlcfg
