From: testwicks17543 at yahoo dot com Operating system: RedHat ES 3 PHP version: 4.3.8 PHP Bug Type: HTTP related Bug description: HTTP streams not functioning as expected running through web server.
Description: ------------ We are currently experiencing issues with HTTP streams within PHP scripts being run through Apache (using the php4_module). We are not experiencing the issues if we run the php script from the command line. System info: System is running RedHat ES 3 with all the latest patches applied. The system has approx 512 virtual web sites configured in Apache. The Apache startup script changes the max file descriptors to a number higher than the RedHat default of 1024 (the number is currently set too 409600; we have also tried lower numbers such as 8192; please, note that Apache opens more than 1024 files upon startup and that the default setting is no longer an option; each virtual site has its own access log and error log).

We have other web servers configured identically (same version of RedHat distribution, same version of Apache, PHP etc.), with fewer web sites that are not experiencing this issue. Please, let us know if there is any additional information needed. Thank you, Reproduce code: --------------- Code that produces errors: <?php fopen("http://somewebhost.domain.gTLD/index.html", "r"); $httpfile = file_get_contents("http://somewebhost.domain.gTLD/index.html"); include 'http://somewebhost.domain.gTLD/index.html'; ?> Expected result: ---------------- The contents of index.html.
