#23685 [Opn-Fbk]: fake values returned when OID value is an empty string

Previous Comments: [2003-07-14 15:15:23] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Attempted in various ways, but I cannot reproduce this. Maybe it is a Linux problem, since I do PHP development on a CYGWIN system. Neither do I get the same results as the 'user contributed note' on snmpget. [2003-07-14 09:44:57] s dot zagrodzki at net dot icm dot edu dot pl this issue was also mentioned by javierb at gmx dot net in user contributed notes to snmpget() function manual: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.snmpget.php [2003-07-14 03:38:00] s dot zagrodzki at net dot icm dot edu dot pl I tried using snmp module from 20030714 snapshot - didn't help. [2003-07-14 02:35:43] s dot zagrodzki at net dot icm dot edu dot pl this is a part of tcpdump of snmpwalk query: ... GetResponse(50) .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.18.3=lacze do Obs. Astr. GetNextRequest(31) .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.18.3 GetResponse(31) .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.18.4= GetNextRequest(31) .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.18.4 GetResponse(59) .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.18.5=: lacze do Wydz. Zarzadzania ... as you can see, snmp agent returns empty value, response length is also correct. And snmpwalk utility also gives correct results. [2003-07-13 14:49:20] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I tried this with other variables (I do not have an SNMP agent implementing the ifXTable) and cannot reproduce it. Therefore I am thinking that it maybe the SNMP agent which returns these values and as a result they show up in PHP. Could you confirm that this is not a problem with the SNMP agent/router.

Previous Comments: [2003-07-16 02:53:43] s dot zagrodzki at net dot icm dot edu dot pl tried 20030716-0530 version, didn't help. I did some more tests: when I tried snmpwalk()ing .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.2.1.1.28 tree (which is the same as ifAlias, but resides in enterprises.*) the results were correct. Even more, they had double-quotes on both sides of the string. tcpdump showed that all responses are exactly the same - same length and value, but PHP displayed them in another way. My guess was that snmpwalk has problems when it _knows_ that the type of received OID value is DisplayString. Then it doesn't put quotes with value. Simple test - I removed ifAlias definition from IF-MIB.txt and voila - snmpwalk() returns correct values, but with quotes. It seems like php-snmp has problem with empty values (and when OID type is unknown, the result is not an empty value, but string consisting of two quotes.
