ID: 48761 Updated by: paj...@php.net Reported By: aheckmann at m-s dot de -Status: Assigned +Status: To be documented Bug Type: Reproducible crash Operating System: win32 only - Windows 2000 SP4 PHP Version: 5.3.0 Assigned To: pajoye New Comment:
Only 2000 and xp with SP1 (or no SP) are affected. 2003 does work as expected. By the way, I very much doubt that most servers use 2000. Set as "to be documented".

The question whether to fix this is trival, Me, Pierre and the others will discuss this and how to deal with it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-07-02 17:08:20] jon dot harrell at gmail dot com If PHP support for w2k remains then use of GetAddrInfoW must be woked around. The article above explains very plainly that this function is XP SP2+ ONLY. Currently PHP 5.3 is not compatible with w2k-XP SP1. "The GetAddrInfoW function is the Unicode version of getaddrinfo. The GetAddrInfoW function was added to the Ws2_32.dll in Windows XP with Service Pack 2 (SP2). The GetAddrInfoW function cannot be used on versions of Windows earlier than Windows XP with SP2." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-07-02 10:18:42] johan...@php.net Win 2000 is the required minimum version, or should be, while I don't know about required service packs and other patches. Pierre? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
