I've the same result as you when using PHP-CGI from command line. PHP-CGI from Apache runs as "NT-AUTORITÄT/SYSTEM", like Apache. So if this was the reason gethostnamel should also have failed when using it as module, but it didn't when I tested it with PHP6. But when I use PHP-CGI with Apache it doesn't work. I somehow suspect that Apache and PHP communicate via some TCP/IP connection and that this interferes with gethostbynamel. FYI, here just the two most important lines from my Apache configuration: LoadModule fcgid_module modules/mod_fcgid.so FCGIWrapper "c:/Programme/Net/php5/php-cgi.exe" .php Maybe I've just configured things wrong a bit, but I can't imagine that such a strange error could be the result of misconfiguration. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-25 12:42:12] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I tested with 'php-cgi -f test.php', where test.php contains your reproduce code, but I'm not able to reproduce this problem. Please check the permissions of the user that is running the PHP CGI binary. Also, are you running CGI alone (as I did) or from a webserver? And is it running in a different user account? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-25 12:05:52] silverbanana at gmx dot de I just tested it with: PHP Version 5.2.1RC4-dev Build Date:Jan 25 2007 12:17:41 And again it doesn't work with PHP-CGI, but it works with command line (Apache module not tested with this version). Same result: bool(false) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-25 11:45:35] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5.2-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.2-win32-latest.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-25 11:42:39] silverbanana at gmx dot de Description: ------------ gethostbynamel always returns false, instead of giving useful results. This is however only the case when I use PHP as CGI. gethostbynamel works as expected when I use PHP as Apache module and also when I use it from the command line, but not when I use it as CGI. If this behaviour of gethostbynamel is intended or unavoidable, it should be mentioned in the manual for gethostbynamel. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php var_dump(gethostbynamel("localhost")); ?> Expected result: ---------------- List of addresses Actual result: -------------- FALSE ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40234&edit=1
