From: masiena at hotmail dot com Operating system: Windows Server 2003 PHP version: 5.3CVS-2008-09-03 (snap) PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: Problem in paths that have backslashes
Description: ------------ On Windows, directives that have backslashes (\) in file paths are broken. When something like \t is seen (like in error_log="c:\temp\err.log"), it's interpreted like a control sequence (in the example, a tab), and no error logs are generated. This behavior is present in many directives relative to file paths. Solution (temporary?): use forward slashes instead (even in Windows). The same is valid for PHP 6. This is a PATH problem because, where error_log=syslog is used, the messages are correctly sent to Event Viewer. Another clue: phpinfo() output "eats" \t. Reproduce code: --------------- In PHP.INI: error_log = "D:\Progs\php\temp\Logs\php5.3_error_log.txt" include_path = ".;D:\Progs\php\include" etc. Expected result: ---------------- No error logs are generated. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45987&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45987&r=mysqlcfg
