From: Webbed dot Pete at gmail dot com Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.2.1 PHP Bug Type: Reproducible crash Bug description: 500 Server Error on array_merge of func return
Description: ------------ If I do { $from=getarray(); $tgt=array_merge($to,$from); } all is well. But if I do { $tgt=array_merge($to,getarray()); } then the page blows up with a 500 internal server error (and getarray() is never called). I can't (yet) duplicate this as a simple test case; it only happens in the middle of a large site source base. This is on an Apache server (1.3.37) with PHP 5.2.1 running as CGI. The *really* painful part is the 500 Internal Server Error, with no PHP error messages of any kind. Made it incredibly painful to track this down ;) Reproduce code: --------------- See above. I've not yet got a simple test case. All of the following produce the 500 error: $tgt=array_merge($to,getarray()); $tgt=array_merge($to,$from=getarray()); $tgt=array_merge($to,(array)getarray()); Only if the getarray() call is outside the array_merge() does it succeed. Expected result: ---------------- a) No error b) Better debugability of 500 Internal Server Errors caused by PHP Actual result: -------------- 500 Internal Server Error with no other message. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40967&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40967&r=mysqlcfg
