Re: [PHP] Re: POST superglobal is empty [RESOLVED]
Hi All,
I finally found the problem: It was the mod_bandwidth module in
Apache. I was tipped off to this from bug report:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=16595
I disabled the module (commented the LoadModule and AddModule lines in
httpd.conf) and $_POST is populated as expected now.
The faq for mod_bandwidth at:
http://www.cohprog.com/v3/bandwidth/faq-en.html
indicates that if configured incorrectly, CGI may stop working.
FYI: Regarding my other questions:
The code below shows an example of reading data from stdin. If POST
data is read properly by php, there will be nothing on stdin.
However, if you set post_max_size to a (very) small value, there will
be something on stdin and the code below will read and display it.
You will also get a warning that CONTENT_LENGTH is greater than
post_max_size. The code compares the values of CONTENT_LENGTH and
post_max_size and warns if post_max_size is smaller.
Hope this helps all of you out there who are having similar problems.

Re: [PHP] Re: POST superglobal is empty
I tried the C code below and I get post data from Apache fine.
Now I tried to test that php gets data on stdin and that appears to
fail. Maybe I tested wrong, can anyone verify if this test should
work?
Step 1: Set 'post_max_size = 1' in php.ini
Step 2: Send html form post to this code:
STRLEN = ".strlen($raw_data));
print('');
print($raw_data);
print('');
}
}
print('ENV');
print_r($_ENV);
print('');
?>
ENV variables all look correct. stdin ($raw_data) appears to be
empty, strlen returns 0. The CONTENT_LENGTH environment variable is
reported correctly and changes according to how much data is posted.
Is fopen('php://stdin', 'r'); the correct way to read from stdin?
Are there any other ways to read from stdin?
Is post_max_size = 1 a valid setting?

Re: [PHP] Re: POST superglobal is empty
Not a dumb idea, I have tried that with no success. Thanks for the ideas. Keep 'em coming. I recall seeing a conversation somewhere (php bugs, I think) that there is a function to call that will return the raw input from stdin.

Re: [PHP] Re: POST superglobal is empty
I am certain php is configured as CGI, as per:
--SNIP SNIP--
$ ./php -v
PHP 5.0.0 (cgi) (built: Aug 3 2004 21:18:23) (DEBUG)
Copyright (c) 1997-2004 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.0.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2004 Zend Technologies
--SNIP SNIP--
I'm using (for the time being) the default php.ini-dist from the
source directory. I know this has pretty lax configuration settings.
I didn't realize there are all those other versions (don't know where
they are) but I have defined the config-file-path and config-file on
the php configure line so it only looks in one place.
I'm going to continue looking at apache settings/configuration. I
can't find any suspect settings in the config file, but maybe
something was compiled in as a default.
Anyone know how to find out what options/settings the httpd binary has
compiled in?

why not?
Things that will prevent _POST from being filled out:
variable_order="GC" ; lacks P
post_max_size=8 ; missing M at the end.
; or a small number disallowing it from
; being set.
the php binary your using isn't really a cgi binary but the CLI
version of php.
Ensure you are using the right php.ini, there are multiple
version's depending on what they are named php[-{sapi}].ini
nullUses builtin default settings
php.ini The default ini
php-cgi.ini for CGI applications
php-apache.ini For apache
php-cli.ini For CLI

Re: [PHP] Re: POST superglobal is empty
I'm not sure if it is Apache or not. In fact, I wonder that it might be. However, I do not have any clue as to what it could be. We have 1 apache server running. It currently has php4.1.1 built as apache module. Code works fine for this build. In addition, I have php4.3.8 and php5.0.0 built as cgi. This code fails against both php4.3.8 and php5.0.0. Makes me think it has something to do with CGI in apache. Again, I have no clue what this might be. As I mentioned earlier, I've looked through all the bugs on php.net and other newsgroups, mailing lists, FAQ's. All the solutions posted in the past are not in effect on my server. I can find nothing wrong. I have also tried a copy of the 4.1.1 php.ini file for php5.0.0 with no luck. Hints, suggestions, pointers are all welcome.
