Bug #16869: Squirrelmail, wrong directory

[japs]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: Linux Mandrake 8.2
PHP version:  4.2.0
PHP Bug Type: *Web Server problem
Bug description:  Squirrelmail, wrong directory

Use of Squirrelmail version 1.0.6 and 1.2.5 fails together with PHP 4.2.0.
Squirrelmail is installed at /usr/apache/htdocs/squirrelmail.

During the initial call of Squirrelmail (http://my.server/squirrelmail)
the Apache 1.3.24 error log says: 
File does not exist: /usr/apache/htdocs/src/login.php

PHP version 4.1.2 (and earlier) on the other hand works correctly, and
finds the requested document at the proper location:

/usr/apache/htdocs/squirrelmail/src/login.php

Bug #16870: function is_a() inconsisten

[dan]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: Linux
PHP version:  4.2.0
PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description:  function is_a() inconsisten

Is there any reason that this function is_a() does not work for php
classes?  If I create a domxml object $xml and do

is_a($xml, get_class($xml));

it returns false...something seems wrong about that.  This is not a
strtolower problem either...this function works fine for user defined
classes, but refused to even operate on objects created by php's
functions.

Bug #15966 Updated: replace_node incorrect

[dan]

 ID:   15966
 Updated by:   [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Reported By:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Status:   Analyzed
 Bug Type: DOM XML related
 Operating System: Linux
 PHP Version:  4.1.2
 New Comment:

Now the implementation is even worse.  Here is the current state.  The
new node now replaces the old node and returns the new node, but it
DOES NOT update the pointer to the new node, so now you just lost your
pointer in the document.  This is just not acceptable because in xml
the pointer is probably the single most important concept.  If you
loose your pointer you don't know where you are anymore and you can't
get back there unless you know what the document looks like.  I think
that it is really necessary to update this pointer so that the new node
that you pass in is still a reference to the new location.

xmlReplaceNode replaces the node in the first argument,
which is the current node, by the new copied node.
Sounds reasonable to me. It returns the old node which we
don't care about. You should have a reference to the old
node anyway. Ok, the old node isn't deleted only unlinked
but that is the only way to go since the corresponding
PHP variable can't be deleted at this time.

Making a copy is actually a point to discuss. But currently
it needs to be done because if the same libxml node is returned you
will probably end up with two PHP variables
pointing to the same libxml node. If one is deleted the
other one will lose its libxml node as well. I guess this
could be solved with references but I don't know how yet.



[2002-03-08 20:39:22] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When replace_node is used, if the new node being inserted already
exists in the xml document, it is to be first removed.  Thus, the
following lines in the C code are incorrect...

if (NULL == (new_repnode = xmlCopyNode(repnode, 1))) {
php_error(E_WARNING, %s(): unable to clone node,
get_active_function_name(TSRMLS_C));
RETURN_FALSE;
}

repnode = xmlReplaceNode(nodep, new_repnode);

This code is making a copy of the new node, and hence when the libxml2
function xmlReplaceNode is run, it does not remove the node already
existing in the document.  The call to xmlReplaceNode should be the
repnode, not the new_repnode.  As a matter of fact, I see no need to
even attempt to clone the node, unless it is to check that it is a true
node.

Thoughts?

I am having the same problem which is a bit
stranger though.

One time my call is correct while done in another
place produces php_OLECHAR_to_char error message.

Working:
$pdflib = new COM(PDFlib_com.PDF);
print $pdflib-get_parameter(version,0);

Prints version string as expected.

Not working:
$pdflib = new COM(PDFlib_com.PDF);
print $pdflib-set_parameter(fontwarning,1);
print $pdflib-get_parameter(version,0);

Produces error message for the get_parameter line
and 0 (true !!! in php for PDFlib, -1 is false)
for the fontwarning line.

Also, to make it even stranger, at least to me:
When I switch the line in the non-working example,
I both get the version string and 0 for the 
fontwarning

Is there something wrong about the way I connect
to PDFLib ?

If you mean php code, here goes:
-
$instance = new COM(WinampCOM.Application);
$title = $instance-CurrentSongTitle;
-
The $title line will produce the error if run via the httpd, but not if
pasted in the stdin of php.exe.  The WinampCOM.Application com requires
a winamp module, which can be found at
http://www.adcock8.freeserve.co.uk/gen_com.zip

I have the following code which tries to execute a stored procedure
using ADODB created using COM. The ad Constants and strConnect have
been defined in an include file.

$objCommand = new COM (ADODB.Command);
$objCommand - ActiveConnection = strConnect;
$objCommand - CommandText = someStoredProc;
$objCommand - CommandType = adCmdStoredProc;

$objParam = $objCommand - CreateParameter(strAction, adVarChar,
adParamInput, 1);
$objCommand - Parameters - Append($objParam);
$objParam = $objCommand - CreateParameter(intCategoryID, adInteger,
adParamInput, 4);
$objCommand - Parameters - Append($objParam);
$objParam = $objCommand - CreateParameter(strCategory, adVarChar,
adParamInput, 100);
$objCommand - Parameters - Append($objParam);

$clnParameter = $objCommand - Parameters;

echo gettype($clnParameter);

The display says $clnParameter is an object, while ADODB documentation
says Parameters is a collection of Parameter object.

In 4.2 you can no longer set server_name to NULL (which you need to do
if you just want to set the codepage).  The problem is the code that
was added to 4.2 to process server_name as an ARRAY.  In 4.1.2 the code
looked like this (COM.c, line 486):

if (server_name != NULL)
{
if (Z_TYPE_P(server_name) == IS_NULL) {
server_name = NULL;
} else {
if (!INI_INT(com.allow_dcom)) {
php_error(E_WARNING, DCOM is disabled);
RETURN_FALSE;
} else {
convert_to_string_ex(server_name);
}
}
}

In the 4.2.0 COM.c, the new flags variable set and IS_ARRAY check was
added before the IS_NULL check, instead of inside the else branch -
thus flags is set to remote invocation, even if server_name is NULL. 
To fix this I moved everything below if (server_name != NULL) and
above if (Z_TYPE_P(server_name) == IS_NULL) { to after } else {.

I produced this with 4.1.1 and the shorter script of :
  $excel = new COM(Excel.Application);

  $excel-application-DisplayAlerts = False;
  $excel-Quit();
  $excel-Release();
  $excel=null;

In the current development cvs version ( 4.3.0-dev 26/04/02), once the
script execution is complete excel appears to be closed correctly. 
(maybe http://cvs.php.net/co.php/php4/ext/com/com.h?r=1.11 was the cvs
fix for this?)



[2002-04-25 14:32:28] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When using Excel.Application via the COM interface with PHP version
(4.1.2 and 4.2.0), EXCEL.EXE stays resident in memory after script
execution.

To verify this is not an Excel issue, i created two separate scripts
that did the same thing; one in perl, and one in PHP.  

After execution of the perl script, no EXCEL.EXE is in the Task list;
yet after execution of the PHP script, EXCEL.EXE is in the Task list.

Some more info and test scripts are available at:

Use of Squirrelmail version 1.0.6 and 1.2.5 fails together with PHP
4.2.0. Squirrelmail is installed at /usr/apache/htdocs/squirrelmail.

During the initial call of Squirrelmail (http://my.server/squirrelmail)
the Apache 1.3.24 error log says: 
File does not exist: /usr/apache/htdocs/src/login.php

PHP version 4.1.2 (and earlier) on the other hand works correctly, and
finds the requested document at the proper location:

/usr/apache/htdocs/squirrelmail/src/login.php

Is saw your point, but you have to understand that this is rather
useless information as this is a bug system for PHP and not for every
piece of software out there written *in* PHP. If you want to report a
bug concerning PHP, you have to be specific about the actual problem,
give reproduceable examples, etc. and not just tell 'software xy
doesn't work anymoer after the upgrade'. Who says this software is 100%
error free? I hope you see the point of this bug reporting system.

The cause of the bug is that the following code is commented out in the
timeout handler (zend_timeout() in zend_execute_API):

/* is there any point in this?  we're terminating the request
anyway...
PG(connection_status) |= PHP_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT;
*/

In our case, we need this error status to be set correctly. We want to
be able to detect the error when a script is terminated due to timeout.



[2001-12-16 02:22:59] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It seems that when a script terminates due to a
timeout connection_status() returns 0 (and
connection_timeout() no longer exists).

When aborted by a user connection_status() does return 1.

Sample script:

?PHP
set_time_limit(1);
register_shutdown_function(shutdown);

function shutdown(){
$status = connection_status();
$err = Connection status ($status).\n;
error_log($err, 3, /tmp/phpstatus.log);
}

while(true){
echo .;
}

c:\winnt\system32\php4ts.dll matches the php4ts.dll from the php 4.2.0
package. All other PHP files are in php's own directory. When I install
a new version of PHP, I always delete the whole old PHP directory and
create a new one to prevent keeping rests from old versions. I also
always use the new php.ini-dist and modify it again instead of keeping
the old php.ini.

Additionally, in the last PHP version I had installed (4.1.2),
file_exists() DID work! It just stopped working with PHP 4.2.0, so I
doubt that error could be from forgetting to overwrite old DLLs with
new ones.

What does the script I posted before say for _you_, Jani?



[2002-04-26 22:11:06] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Just in case..are you absolutely sure you have updated
all dlls related to PHP in your system? (I assume you had
some older PHP there before)

e.g. php4ts.dll is quite important to be new. Try searching
your filesystem for it. You might have many of them there.

--Jani




[2002-04-26 12:47:20] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Sander, please tell me the Bug ID for it.

I did search the Bugs DB for open bugs with file_exists.
The bug I'm talking about was reported as bug for PHP 4.1.0 ( Bug ID:
15218 ) and it has actually been fixed in 4.1.2, but now it appeared
again in PHP 4.2.0 !!
So this is no duplicate bugreport, I think.



[2002-04-26 11:59:39] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Plese, SEARCH the bugdb. There is a report about this. (sorry Jani ;)



[2002-04-25 16:39:58] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

file_exists() returns TRUE instead of FALSE

As per request, here are more details...

This:
?

$filename=;

if (is_file($filename))
{
print is_file sais, the file $filename bdoes exist/b.br;
}
else
{
print is_file sais, the file $filename bdid not exist/b.br;
}


if (file_exists($filename))
{
print file_exists sais, the file $filename bdoes exist/b.br;
}
else
{
print file_exists sais, the file $filename bdid not
exist/b.br;
}

?

will return:
is_file sais, the file did not exist.
file_exists sais, the file does exist.


Again, in other words:
If you give file_exists() an empty string as argument ( file_exists()
), it will return TRUE (saying the file existed, but it does not,
because  is no file.)

is_file() correctly returns FALSE if you give it an empty string as
argument and so should file_exists do, as it did in PHP 4.1.2


Further information:
I used to check my upload-scripts for uploaded files using
$file=$_FILES['datei']['tmp_name'];
if (file_exists($file)) { savefile($file); }
but I cannot use this anymore because when a user does not upload a
file, $filename becomes an empty string and file_exists returns TRUE,
so my function savefile($file) wants to save a non-uploaded file.

Does this happen with PHP 4.2.0 ?

[2002-04-27 01:42:20] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've started experiencing something similar since I upgraded to 4.1.2.

The segfaults kept occuring during a POST operations, after enabling
debug and rebuilding my rpms I then noticed the following messages in
the apache error_log:

Unknown(0) : Warning - POST Content-Length of 75 bytes exceeds the
limit of 16 bytes.

This left me scratching my head until I skimmed through php.ini and
found the setting for post_max_size=16


comparison with another working php server that uses an older php.ini
file this var was set to 8M.


this has affected two of my servers at the same time.  The only
commonality that I have is that I use ZendIDE and recently updated from
2.0.0 to 2.0.1 on both machines.

The third machine (working) has no Zend installations on it.



[2002-04-11 02:18:47] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It happens here also. I tried with several apache version, but the
error is the same. I have to restart apache on hourly basis. With 4.06
it worked for months.



[2002-03-19 10:04:41] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Check out bug-report #14529, talking about propably the same problems
there



[2002-03-19 06:41:49] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Had the same problems as described in first post in this thread. We
tried an older apache, 1.3.20. This doesn't help, same problems occur:
the stopping of php-parsing in the middle or end of an echo-command,
and the exited on signal 11 message in var/log/messages.

Our php 4.1.2 configuration:
'./configure' '--with-mysql=/usr/local'
'--with-postgres=/usr/local/pgsql' '--with-gnu-ld' '--with-libz'
'--with-bz2' '--with-gdbm' '--with-ndbm' '--with-gd' '--with-openssl'
'--with-mm' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm' '--with-mhash'
'--with-mcrypt' '--with-apache=../apache_1.3.20'

We tried an older version of Apache, because this seemed the only
difference to another server where no exited-on-signal-11-messages were
found in the /var/log/messages-file.

Didn't look at the difference in load though, shall ask our
administrators about this.



[2002-03-13 06:12:16] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I should mention that the problems occurs even if there is no call to
Interbase at all. In our case we saw it happen in an index.php file
which gets some session values and sets some constants base on the
environment. It then creates html/javascript to open a new browser
window. This didn't happen as the rendering ended inmidst the
javascript code. Only after this is Interbase involved.

check this too?

Duh. You're right, it's a bug. 

?php

var_dump($bb);

$aa = file_exists($filename);
var_dump($aa);

bool(true)

c:\winnt\system32\php4ts.dll matches the php4ts.dll from the php 4.2.0
package. All other PHP files are in php's own directory. When I install
a new version of PHP, I always delete the whole old PHP directory and
create a new one to prevent keeping rests from old versions. I also
always use the new php.ini-dist and modify it again instead of keeping
the old php.ini.

Additionally, in the last PHP version I had installed (4.1.2),
file_exists() DID work! It just stopped working with PHP 4.2.0, so I
doubt that error could be from forgetting to overwrite old DLLs with
new ones.

What does the script I posted before say for _you_, Jani?



[2002-04-26 22:11:06] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Just in case..are you absolutely sure you have updated
all dlls related to PHP in your system? (I assume you had
some older PHP there before)

e.g. php4ts.dll is quite important to be new. Try searching
your filesystem for it. You might have many of them there.

[2002-04-26 12:47:20] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Sander, please tell me the Bug ID for it.

I did search the Bugs DB for open bugs with file_exists.
The bug I'm talking about was reported as bug for PHP 4.1.0 ( Bug ID:
15218 ) and it has actually been fixed in 4.1.2, but now it appeared
again in PHP 4.2.0 !!
So this is no duplicate bugreport, I think.

Bug #16875: FILE Function Checks Wrong Path

[tonicpeddler]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: Windows XP
PHP version:  4.2.0
PHP Bug Type: Filesystem function related
Bug description:  FILE Function Checks Wrong Path

When I call:

$data = file( database.txt );

From my file c:\xitami\webpages\db\database.php, php doesn't check
c:\xitami\webpages\db\ for database.txt, instead it returns an error
saying that database.txt doesn't exist in the directory
c:\xitami\webpages\db\database.php  I beleive this may be a bug, since
it shouldn't be including the name of the php script in the directory.  In
the mean time I am specifying an absolute filename for database.txt,
however I'd much prefer the modularity of relative file access.

If you fix it, that's great, I hope someone contacts me.  In that case
could someone tell me where to download a prebuilt binary?  I'm on dialup
and a pretty slow machine, not very interested in downloading the source
code again, and building, again.

Bug #16876: Static PHP Variables

[tonicpeddler]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: Windows XP
PHP version:  4.2.0
PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description:  Static PHP Variables

I think some php users might find it useful if you could declare a variable
as a static variable.  When the script finishes executing, PHP rewrites
the original declaration of those variables to the values they had at the
end of script execution.

Maybe I'm wrong, or maybe there's a more effective way to accomplish this,
but there is certainly a very obvious and simple syntax for such a
feature.

static $var = value;

It would certainly simplify a lot for me, and probably at least a few
other people.

Message-passing between two php3 scripts can be useful under some
circumstances (example: implementation of PAM conversation functions).
Making pipe creation available directly to php3 scripts on systems
which support it provides a much more straightforward way to accomplish
this (currently, it appears that inter-script message passing is only
possible through either shared memory, or the use of an external
database, both of which include unnecessary overhead compared to a
pipe).

[2000-07-30 17:07:23] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

User response:
As far as I can gather it has something to do with the
wait_timeout of MySQL.  This was set pretty low.  I think
the persistent connections outlived the connections on the
database side during quiet periods.  The error doesn't
seem to appear if I up this timeout or bring down the
life span of the apache child processes.  Is there a
way to set a timeout on the persistent connections
on the php side?  That would enable one to match it
against the MySQL timeout and make sure it never happens.





[2000-07-30 13:52:19] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

** Warning - uneducated guess **

This seems like it might be a mysql configuration issue.

Please review the MySQL documentation on performance - try increasing
the max number of connections, etc...

Also, what user does you web server run as - www by chance?



[2000-04-24 03:04:48] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is hard to reproduce, but every once in a while PHP tries to use
the
user running apache instead of the user specified in mysql_pconnect()
to
query MySQL.  So after a pconnect with user X, you get a access
denied
for user www from the query. Our config is a dual-processor webserver
and dual-processor MySQL machine.  With low traffic, it does not occur.
 
It also appears to occur only when using write locks on tables, but I 
can't positively verify that - only that I haven't seen it happen on
sites
not using table locks, yet.

PHP configured with:
./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-mysql=/usr
--enable-track-vars --with-gd=../gd1.4 --with-ttf --without-pcre-regex
--with-mm=../mm-1.0.12 --enable-inline-optimization --disable-debug
--with-recode --with-t1lib --with-dbase

Under Windows, checkdnsrr always returns true (no matter

getmxrr returns 0

(append ?domain=domaintotest.com to the URL when calling
this script)

Bug #5142 Updated: Allow properties and methods of a class to be declared as public or private

This is just a simple feature request.

I would like to be able to define methods and properties of a class as
either public or private (public could be the default if not specified,
to maintain backwards compatibility with the current syntax).

Being able to declare methods/properties as private to a class makes a
lot of sense if many people are sharing the same codebase and use
classes they have not written themselves. If all properties and/or
methods of a class are public, then people could possibly set a
property or call a method that would cause the class to misbehave. I
know this can be guarded against by programming the class
defensively, and also that people could just read the class
definition to learn its proper use, but being able to just declare some
parts of the class as private solves the above problems nicely and
easily.

A syntax such as the following would make sense to me:

class myClass
{
public {
var $myPublicProperty;

function myPublicMethod()
{
}
}
private {
var $myPrivateProperty;

function myPrivateMethod()
{
}
}
}


Please consider this :-)

boiled down to the fact that PHP does not kill local variables at
function or block termination (for speed reasons I believe).  In order
to properly implement a destructor, the reference count for a variable
needs to be decremented as the block scope of the declaration is
exited.

I had suggested that this be a compile time flag, because correct
program behavior is to do the reference decrements on block exit.  For
those of us who want every possible tool to illuminate bugs (e.g.
error_reporting( E_ALL)), this just adds another level of error
checking on use of such constructs as global references on local
variables, etc.

Again, perhaps this is not the main focus of PHP, but nevertheless I
think it would be helpful option for developers who are writing huge OO
sites with PHP.  It seems the incidence of such has increased greatly
since I first made this report.

BTW, I do not know how my original comments got deleted.  I hope my
memory of the issues is correct herein.  Apologies if I am mistaken.

Please take my comments constructively.

mysql_fetch_array() just uses the names reported by the mysql client

In the documentation it is said that if you use same column names the
last one will win. That is so far ok.

However I think the following statement could be correctly transferred
in an assoc. array:

SELECT tblOrderAddress.Street, tblDeliveryAdress.Street 
FROM tblCustomer AS tblOrderAddress, tblCustomer AS tblDeliveryAddress
WHERE .;

It is correct that Street occurs twice as an attribute, but it is
distinguishable by the preceding tablename.
Isn't it possible to change mysql_fetch_array, so that tablenames, if
stated, are included in the assoc Array building process?

this is, indeed, exactly the sort of thing that output buffering is

Previous Comments:

so why don't you have your own

function quiet_eval($code)
{
  ob_start();
  eval($code);
  $retval = ob_get_contents();
  ob_end_clean();
  return $retval;
}

as I understand it, zend output buffers can be nested, so no issues
with it interfering with existing buffers.



[2000-12-15 14:50:32] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I guess this is more of a hack than anything, but I really needed
eval()'s code NOT to be displayed right away. So I used ob_start(),
ob_get_contents(), and ob_end_clean(). 

?php 

$stuff = Hello, ; 

ob_start(); // start buffer 
eval(print 'World!';); // execute code 
$retval = ob_get_contents(); // return executed code 
ob_end_clean(); // delete the buffer 

print $stuff.$retval; 

? 

This would print Hello, World! instead of World!Hello, .

Is there a function to do this already?

Thanks,
Chris

$$var; /* should echo three */

no. it will echo contents of $three. if you don't have that variable in

It could be very flexible if set_error_handler() can send error

set_error_handler (function);
and
ser_error_handler (method, $object);

It would be good to have the optional use_include_path parameter with
file_exists, just as with fopen. 
To find out whether a file exists on the include_path, one will need to
explode the include_path and then check for each element separately
now, or attempt an fopen(,,1).

Bug #16879: posix_getpwuid() fails incorrectly

[solo]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: RedHat Linux 2.2.5
PHP version:  4.0CVS-2002-04-27
PHP Bug Type: POSIX related
Bug description:  posix_getpwuid() fails incorrectly

I am not sure that this is a bug, but for some reason, when attempting to
get the file owner of a file getpwuid() fails (used in this context):

$uid = fileowner($path);
$owner = posix_getpwuid($uid);

Fileowner() returns either 0 or 1028, and getpwuid fails. The 0 of course
false would mean the file doesnt exist, but using the same variable
($path) in other functions such as fileperms() etc do not fail and return
the proper data. 

Situation:
$path = /home/;
$uid = fileowner($path);
$owner = posix_getpwuid($uid);
$owner_name = $owner['name'];

I have tried the same situation with valid filenames (instead of
directories).

all extensions are enabled and configure line is:
'./configure' '--target=i386-redhat-linux' '--prefix=/usr'
'--with-config-file-path=/etc' '--disable-debug' '--enable-pic'
'--enable-inline-optimization' '--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs'

htmlentities or htmlspecialcharacters,

feature/change request.





[2001-02-24 04:57:02] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It turned out to be a problem with a:

META HTTP-EQUIV=Content-Type CONTENT=text/html;
charset=ISO-8859-1

header that caused encoding by the browser prior to sendind data to
PHP. Now there's another problem. The '’' doesn't get encoded by the
htmlentities() function. This char, and others, is an illegal char
according to the WDG html validator and should be encoded. I think an
extended version of the htmlentities() function, which encodes every
char that need encoding, not only the ones in the
get_html_translation_table(HTML_ENTITIES) table, should be considered.
Of course encoding should be performed in the '#;' form.



[2001-02-23 12:51:48] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Sorry but everything gets screwed because of the mixture of html
entities and real chars. The char that gives problems is '’', the
corresponding html entitie is amp;#8217;, the html entitie provided by
FrontPage is amp;#146;. Looking directly at the html code make it
easier to understand what's going on.



[2001-02-23 12:45:17] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When I enter some special chars in a textual form field (either 'INPUT
TYPE=text' or 'TEXTAREA') they get encoded like an html entitie. For
example this '’' gets encoded as '#8217;' in the variable of the form
handling script (I hope this won't trigger the bug, the first char is
like a '`' but reversed, almost like a superscript small '/'). No
coding happens for a plain typed '#8217;', so there's no way to
distinguish between the two cases in the form handling script and so
there's no way to safely reverse the encoding. Browser is IE 5.5 on
Windows 98.

This may happen for example doing cut  paste from WordPad, Word or
existing web pages. I tried the same thing pasting into FrontPage
Express. It encodes it as '#146;' instead of '#8217;', may be it's
just the encoding that's wrong.

P.S. Sorry for my poor English

such a syntax would be nice:

if (getColor() == ['green'|'blue']) {
if (someFunction() != [truenull]) {
if (xy() = [$x$y]) {

which means

if ((getColor() == 'green') || (getColor() == 'blue')) {
but saves one call to the function
or

$myCol = getColor();
if (($myCol == 'green') || ($myCol == 'blue')) {
but looks better and saves a temp var.

$tmp = functionThatReturnsBool();
if ($tmp == true OR $tmp == null) {

sometimes it could be done with
if (in_array(getColor(), array('green', 'blue'))) { 
but not always.

The socket_read() function does not work properly, say I do this:

$text = socket_read($message_socket, 2048);

It will only get 1 character even though I said 2048 characters.

In the user notes for srand(), [EMAIL PROTECTED] said:

*ALWAYS* use (double)microtime()*100 as your seed. 
Do *NOT* just use time(). Do not add an extra 0 to make it bigger. 
...
Anything else is sub-standard.

If so, why not make the seed argument optional, and make the default
(double)microtime()*100 when the argument is absent? Save me a

One feature I *REALLY* love that I've only seen under Informix is the
ifx_htmltbl_result function, which makes a table out of the results --
this is a GREAT timesaver when debugging select statements!

My co-workers get very envious when they see me hack away on the SQL
and not have to touch any display loops to get my results.

I'd love to be able to do this under MySQL and Oracle, as well. 

Thanks a lot -- I really love this language! :)

As you know, most of PHP's date and time functions use the unix
timestamp, which wont go past Tuesday 19 January 2038 05:11,
numberically represented by 2147483648 (ie 30 bits) 

Surely PHP can get clever and work around this? (ie allow bigger values
which will translate back and forth properly up to the year ?)  
Otherwise we will all find outselves with a Y2K-like date nightmare!

eg:  currently:  echo mktime(0,0,0,1,1,2099);  outputs -1
and putting any number past 2147483648 into date() wont give you
anything past Tuesday 19 January 2038 05:11

Thanks!

Perhaps there is already something for this, but it hasn't jumped out
at me and no-one on the coding forum on phpbuilder replied to my thread
with anything useful.

What would be nice is for php to have a 'session' of sorts for each
UNIX/WINDOWS user who has php files running on the server. Then each
user on the machine can have quick memory access to frequently used
data.

For example, imagine an online election system. The dates people are
allowed to vote are semi-static, they change yearly, but you don't want
to monkey with code to change them so they would probably be in the db.
On each page hit, you must verify these dates vs the current date to
allow access.  This would involve hitting the db to get the dates on
each hit.  Having them in memory would be a significant improvement.

I'd imagine an interface similar to the 'session_*' would be suffice.

multiple dispatch is not going to happen. ZE2 has private member

Previous Comments:


[2001-06-20 11:54:35] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I disagree with your comment on how dynamic bindings are used.  The
whole purpose of dynamic binding is give a function whose purpose could
be asked for in many different ways yet is asking to do the same thing
the ability to hide how it works from the programmer using it.  In C++,
there is a function of exp, which could be sent four different
methods:

int exp (int base, int exponent)
double exp (int base, double exponent)
double exp (double base, int exponent)
double exp (double base, double exponent)

If anything, it makes the programmers job easier to utilize this
function because they only have to remember ONE function, not four
different ones accomplishing the same task.

Admittedly, PHP doesn't have data types in the traditional sense,
however it should have Dynamic Binding because one of the most
fundamental rules of Object Oriented Programming is the idea of hiding
the how and just utilizing the functions and classes.

The same argument can be made for the public/private distinction. 
Adding this feature is an excellent way to make sure that programmers
do not mess with the logical code that you worked so hard on.  Also, it
forces programmers to use the functions of the class, as the orginal
programmer percieved it.

I want to see PHP become the best Web Programming Language out there,
and proper OOD techniques is fundamental to getting there.



[2001-06-20 00:42:51] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I completely disagree with the concept of dynamic binding.
Calling different functions based on the number of arguments
is spaghetti code waiting to happen.  PHP supports default
values for arguments which makes them optional.  Your 
would be much cleaner if written with defaulted x and y 
arguments which you then check and if you have the default
value for x and/or y you would calculate the center value.
Or alternatively use func_num_args to see how many args were
passed.  To me it is cleaner to collect the functionality for a
function in a single function instead of splitting it 
out over multiple functions.  Imagine trying to debug some
code and you end up looking at the wrong function just
because you counted 17 arguments instead of 18.

As for the public/private issue.  Sure, from an OO purity
perspective it would be nice.  But it is functionally irrelevant.  ie.
your code would not work any better or
worse by having the public/private differentiation.



[2001-06-19 22:05:53] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

function drawMe()
{
if( 2 == func_num_args() ) {
doStuff( func_get_arg(0) , func_get_arg(1) ) ;
} else {
doStuff( $defaultX , $defaultY ) ;
}
}

private vars/methods would be good... :)



[2001-06-19 15:10:06] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Ok Folks.  I am really happy with PHP thus far.  However to make it a
true Object Oriented Language you absolutly need Dynamic binding.  This
would be such a huge boon for us developers who love to work within
classes.  Such as:

// Inside the class Circle

function DrawMe() {
// Getting Ceter Coords..
DrawMe($centX, $centY);
}

function DrawMe($x, $y) {
// Draws the circle at $x, $y
}

// End of code demo

This kind of ability can be extremely huge, if you use it right.  Also,
it allows for developers to make a module extremely flexiable and
powerful.

Secondly, I think that we are missing public and private sections of
the OOP world.  In the above example, I would have the functions
public, and the data structures inside of it totally hidden (or
private) so the programmer who is using my include just has to deal
with the interface, and can't touch the actual data.  That is strength
and beauty of encapsulation.

I just thought you may want to hear this, and I am hoping to hear from
you guys (and gals) that you are hard at work to implement it and it is
coming soon.

Thanks for reading my rant!!

private:
var $myvar;
var $myvar2:

function myfoo()
{
print the variable is :  . $myvar
}

will be converted on the fly by PHP interpreter to 
class
{
var $myvar_993679346;
var $myvar2_993679346:
var $myvar3;

function myfoo()
{
print the variable is :  . $myvar_993679346;
}
}

Note that 993679346 is the time stamp got by time(). PHP interpreter
when it starts up will store this
timestamp value in a global var and use it throught to mangle all the
private variables declared in
all the classes in all the files..




[2001-06-27 17:47:52] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have a good idea. It is extremely easy to implement private,
protected variables in classes.

PHP can use the name mangling of variables to implement private
variables in classes. This technique is used by python language.

What you do is - PHP will read the class and simply change the variable
names to variablename_timestamp. Where timestamp is unique id got by
time() function.

Classes need private, protected variables. What do you say??

It would be very nice to have a var_dump() that returns the variable

deprecating get_meta_tags()  and encouraging
the use of expat for tasks like this instead ...

(even if we stay with get_meta_tags(), we should
 re-implement it using expat internally instead of
 the hand-written code it uses right now
 this would, for example, have prevented the
 single-quote bug we had recently ... )

I use PHP as a general scripting language, and some compile or runtime
options would be very useful:

- A no-tags mode that would have the interpreter behave as if it were
always inside a ?php ? block

- Standard file handles predefined, similiar to $argc and $argv[]:
$stdin, $stdout, $stderr

- Quiet mode always enabled

The following script is too complicated:

#!/usr/local/bin/php -q
?
$l = ;
$fp = fopen(php://stdin, r);
while (!feof($fp))
{
$s = fgets($fp, 5000);
if ($l != $s)
{
echo $s;
$l = $s;
}
}
?

It would be much nicer to write it as follows:

#!/usr/local/bin/php
$l = ;
while (!feof($stdin))
{
$s = fgets($stdin, 5000);
if ($l != $s)
{
echo $s;
$l = $s;

getmxrr is designed to return a list of mx records found for a host.

According to smtp rfcs, if no mx records are found, then the hostname's
A record is considered to be the lowest mx.

Take for example the following hostname:
genet.sickkids.on.ca

This is a separate zone which does not have any MX records.  It has an
A record and that suffices for people to receive email on that
hostname.

getmxrr should be changed so that it should also return true if:

no mx records are found, BUT an A record exists for the hostname.

Why?
Because smtp rfc's state that if there are no mx records, the A record
should be considered to be the lowest priority mx record.

When using mysql_pconnect() the connection to the database (abviously)
persists.

This has the site-effect that open transactions at the end of the page
request remain open if you do not explicitly commit/rollback the
transaction.

This can happen very easily if you have an error in your script.

The Postgres driver does an automatic rollback at request shutdown, the
mysql driver should do the same.

In ext/standard/array.c, the sorting algorithm of shuffle 
is defined as

(php_rand() % 2) ? 1 : -1

This is fine for rand algorithms in which all bits are 
random but with Solaris and other unices this is not so. 
Quoting man random():

The difference is that rand(3C) produces  a  much  less  
random sequence-in fact, the low dozen bits generated by 
rand go through a cyclic pattern. All the bits generated by 
random() are usable.

This is not true however - the LSB of random() calls are 
predictable on some systems.

You can verify if your system is affected by running this:

?PHP
$a = array();
$b = array();

for($i=0; $i1000; $i++)  // iterate 1000 times
{
$foo = ;
// initialize random seq with new seed
srand ($i); 
// create a string with the LSB of first 24 random numbers
for($j=0; $j24; $j++) {
$c = rand();
// $c = rand(0,32000); works on all systems
// store the random number so we can check how many 
different
// numbers were really generated
$b[$c]= 1;
// append the least signicant bit to the string
$foo .= ($c % 2);
}
// store the parity string
$a[$foo]= 1;
}

echo Parity string count:  . count($a), BR;
echo Random number count:  . count($b), BR;
?

If the counts are 1000/24000 you're fine. Affected systems 
I've tried this on return 4/24000.

Proposed fix: change shuffle to call PHP's own rand 
function with limits, ie, rand(0,32000). This introduces 
randomness into the LSB and fixes shuffle.

error_reporting has been set to E_ALL in your config.

Set to E_ALL  ~E_NOTICE to prevent this warning, but the point is that
$search has no value in your script!

Always var_dump your variables to see what they are first.

Not a bug - bogus

php 4.0.5 cgi does not do this.

More information is required here. Can we see some output
data? ie, echo your sql query string. (It looks like this
might be quite large. Best idea would be to output to a
text file and give a URL.)



[2001-08-13 06:12:23] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It seems that the function addslashes() donesn't work correctly now. I
write a program with the sql:
insert into member(membername,photo)
values('$membername','.addslashes($picdata).')
It worked correctly on php 4.02,but now cannt.so I want know what
happened and how to correct it.

sorry for my poor english.

Since encoded_value is set depending only on whether z_value is NULL(0)
or not, surely there's no need to check Z_STRVAL_PP(z_value) before
using encoded_value, and it just adds stuff to the normal execution
path. At this point, we know either z_value is null, or
Z_STRLEN_PP(z_value) is not 0.

$$ is just a shortcut for a lookup in the variable hashtable
of the current namespace ($GLOABLS if outside a function)

so you end up with the equivalent of
$GLOBALS[GLOBALS[first][second]]
which is obviously not supposed to work as a multidimensional array
access

IMHO $$ should *not* become to clever aka. complicated

moved to feature requests for now although the amount of
exclamation marks used almost justified bogusification



[2001-09-18 07:50:44] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

$dynvar = GLOBALS[first][second];
echo $$dynvar;

result : nothing , no error and no output!

for arrays stored in variables only to ways are working:

$dynvar = GLOBALS;
echo ${$dynvar[first][second]};

or more dynamic but more slower!

$dynvar = .?PHP echo \$GLOBALS[first][second]; ?.;
eval $dynvar;

you can use a variable to store instead of echo!

I think this breaks the rules of assigning variable variables . It must
be possible to store the complete call of the array in a variable. 

The Way implemented jet is not praktical! Real World Tested! There
are so much postings in many Forums and Mailinglist with no suggestion
. I can't understand this! So i must think this is a BUG! or was
forgotten to realize!

I proposed that earlier (along with ^^) [ZendEnginge ML, june 27th

Anyway, I think it should be added, there is simply no power operator
now, and pow() is both a bit bugly and overloaded (both ^^ and ** at
the same time).

** is Pascal, not C



[2001-10-19 10:36:03] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It would be nice to have an exponential operator. ** would be a logical
choice, just like in C.

Example:
echo 2**3; // prints 8

I know we have pow(), but an operator for this would be nice...

Bug #7923 Updated: htmlentities doesn't work for ISO 8859-2

 PHP Version:  4.0.3pl1
 New Comment:

for most if the iso 8859-2 charset, there are no standard html
entities, and the current behavior of htmlentities() is to leave such
characters unconverted.

the real problem is that the current behavior of htmlentities() when
passed an unknown charset is to use the iso 8859-1 mapping. it
shouldn't try to use a charset mapping in that case.


Previous Comments:


[2000-11-23 07:40:20] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

BTW: you can use recode(ISO8859-2..h4,$text) for this
purpose. See GNU recode extension and recode docs for more
information.




[2000-11-22 08:17:01] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

From PHP Manual: ... htmlentities... At present, the ISO-8859-1
character set is used. 

I feel there is strong need to make htmlentities to support other
charsets than ISO 8859-1. We, here in Poland for instance, use ISO
8859-2. Many Western/USA freeware programs use (as they of course
should) htmlentities. Proper display of our diacritic chars is then
impossible. We have to modify sources, removing htmlentities or
defining own functions. It's a waste of time and resources. May I ask
PHP developers to consider this issue?

into the documentation proper.)



[2001-07-25 16:50:29] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

PHP needs a function to convert html entities to plain text,
such as quot; becomes a double quote character.  

Essentially,
htmlentities or htmlspecialcharacters,
except in reverse.

I have to admit that the above comment comes off as an
insulting wisecrack. like im a moron for suggesting such
a feature. what would KR say to that?

Anyway - i found a way around this PHP deficiency for now,
and i did that by creating a set of functions which maintain
an array of defined variables and respond accordinly to my
own undefine, ifdefine, constant and define functions.

cd /web/src/php4; grep -nir undef *;

hmm, looks like the php developers found it useful in C



[2002-04-27 14:15:52] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

if you could undefine, it wouldn't be constant.

I don't know if this is impossible or extremely difficult (I assume its

Is there any reason that this function is_a() does not work for php
classes?  If I create a domxml object $xml and do

is_a($xml, get_class($xml));

it returns false...something seems wrong about that.  This is not a
strtolower problem either...this function works fine for user defined
classes, but refused to even operate on objects created by php's

[2002-04-25 16:07:25] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The cause of the bug is that the following code is commented out in the
timeout handler (zend_timeout() in zend_execute_API):

/* is there any point in this?  we're terminating the request
anyway...
PG(connection_status) |= PHP_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT;
*/

In our case, we need this error status to be set correctly. We want to
be able to detect the error when a script is terminated due to timeout.



[2001-12-16 02:22:59] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It seems that when a script terminates due to a
timeout connection_status() returns 0 (and
connection_timeout() no longer exists).

When aborted by a user connection_status() does return 1.

Sample script:

?PHP
set_time_limit(1);
register_shutdown_function(shutdown);

function shutdown(){

Bug #16875 Updated: FILE Function Checks Wrong Path

[tonicpeddler]

 ID:   16875
 Updated by:   [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Reported By:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
-Status:   Feedback
+Status:   Open
 Bug Type: Filesystem function related
 Operating System: Windows XP
 PHP Version:  4.2.0
 New Comment:

I use include() and require() all the time, it works just fine.  So the
problem is probably specific to file()


Previous Comments:


[2002-04-27 19:35:21] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Can you test if the same thing happens with include() ?




[2002-04-27 13:12:09] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When I call:

$data = file( database.txt );

From my file c:\xitami\webpages\db\database.php, php doesn't check
c:\xitami\webpages\db\ for database.txt, instead it returns an error
saying that database.txt doesn't exist in the directory
c:\xitami\webpages\db\database.php  I beleive this may be a bug,
since it shouldn't be including the name of the php script in the
directory.  In the mean time I am specifying an absolute filename for
database.txt, however I'd much prefer the modularity of relative file
access.

If you fix it, that's great, I hope someone contacts me.  In that case
could someone tell me where to download a prebuilt binary?  I'm on
dialup and a pretty slow machine, not very interested in downloading
the source code again, and building, again.

Jani, the var_dump()s IMO show two bugs: the other is that is_file()
returned int(0), while it's documented to be a bool type. could you
check this too?




[2002-04-27 10:41:44] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Duh. You're right, it's a bug. 

?php

c:\winnt\system32\php4ts.dll matches the php4ts.dll from the php 4.2.0
package. All other PHP files are in php's own directory. When I install
a new version of PHP, I always delete the whole old PHP directory and
create a new one to prevent keeping rests from old versions. I also
always use the new php.ini-dist and modify it again instead of keeping
the old php.ini.

Additionally, in the last PHP version I had installed (4.1.2),
file_exists() DID work! It just stopped working with PHP 4.2.0, so I
doubt that error could be from forgetting to overwrite old DLLs with
new ones.

What does the script I posted before say for _you_, Jani?



[2002-04-26 22:11:06] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Just in case..are you absolutely sure you have updated
all dlls related to PHP in your system? (I assume you had
some older PHP there before)

e.g. php4ts.dll is quite important to be new. Try searching
your filesystem for it. You might have many of them there.

[2002-04-26 12:47:20] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Sander, please tell me the Bug ID for it.

I did search the Bugs DB for open bugs with file_exists.
The bug I'm talking about was reported as bug for PHP 4.1.0 ( Bug ID:
15218 ) and it has actually been fixed in 4.1.2, but now it appeared
again in PHP 4.2.0 !!
So this is no duplicate bugreport, I think.

so does is_file() return false or 0? plus it returned int(1) for you,
which it shouldn't either (should return bool(true) instead). WTF?

Bug #16867 Updated: wrong $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME' contents

Hi,

It seems that the contents of the var $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] is not
set correct. I'm using apache 1.3.23 and PHP 4.2.0 with virtual hosts
with servernames and serveraliases. $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] apparantly
can also return the serveralias name instead of the servername, which
is not expected behaviour.

Please check the following urls to see what I mean:
http://broodjekaas.nl/test.php
And

Hope this helps,

Erik

[andre]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: Win XP
PHP version:  4.2.0
PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem
Bug description:  HTML Help crashes opening php_manual_en.chm

HTML Help (latest version) crashes when opening php_manual_en.chm under
Windows XP Pro. hh.exe opens other documents (not from php document page)
correctly.

AppName: hh.exe  AppVer: 4.74.9273.0 ModName: itss.dll
ModVer: 4.72.8085.0  Offset: 252c

My preferred editor could open context sensitive help for a keyword (e.g.
PHP function) with one keystroke - so I consider properly working HTML
help a tremendous help in coding and debugging - compared to the other
available formats.

Also, the perl iconv module works fine on my solaris 8 too.

What does 'php -m' output? No iconv extension?
Does any other iconv function work?

--Jani




[2002-04-25 23:36:06] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The configure works fine with --with-iconv only, however, the binary I
made (cgi mode) will complain about Fatal
error: Call to undefined function: iconv()

the phpinfo() doesn't show any information about iconv.



[2002-04-25 22:28:57] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This check was changed so that it's possible to link
with external library even if the iconv functions are
found in libc. Using --with-iconv (without any path)
should work fine.

--Jani




[2002-04-25 22:19:22] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The native iconv support on Solaris is in libc. I saw the configure
will check /usr/include/iconv.h and iconv in libc, c_r, pthread in PHP
4.1.2, but doesn't
find the same code in the configure of 4.2.0.

It seems there is no libiconv.a on Solaris 8.

Guys try 4.1.2 

I think this is just the 1000th duplicate of the header bug.



[2002-03-25 02:57:10] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi to all,

I have one Point to add. I use two copies of a WebSite on a Server
running IIS (Test  Real). One of them dosn't have this Problem at all,
but the Second one Produces this error. Both use the same Database
Server. I compared the IIS Web Configuration, but both are the same! I
can not find the error!

[2002-03-18 17:15:58] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I read your errors and found:

FATAL:  erealloc():  Unable to allocate 1043162510 bytes

this seems to me like a MSSQL-PHP issue which comes along with the use
of MSSQLs NTEXT and NVARCHAR Fields, after connecting to the
MSSQL-database you must launch a SQL statement which limits the
returning size fo this fields eg. 'SET TEXTSIZE 10'.

hope this helps

[2002-03-14 06:52:39] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

i noticed various problem working on header() function.
in the worst case i get out a segmentation fault on my linux 2.4.4
running apache 1.3.22 + php 4.1.1

i will post a new bug thread about it in few minutes...

bye, stain



[2002-03-12 15:41:15] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi All,

I also have this problem and it is definately related to MSSQL because
I also used the same code with a MySQL database and the error doesn't
exist.

Thanks,

Steve
