ID: 48695 User updated by: allerlei+bugs dot php dot net at sihw dot nl Reported By: allerlei+bugs dot php dot net at sihw dot nl Status: Open Bug Type: CGI related Operating System: Centos 4/5 PHP Version: 5.2.10 New Comment:
Yes. This is what happened in 5.2.10. PHP_SELF and SCRIPT_FILENAME changed in respect to 5.2.8. (Sorry, I skipped 5.2.9). I installed 5.2.10 but had to rebuild 5.2.8 because of the PHP_SELF troubles. This happens when some process (in my case an external handler executable that starts php under the UID of the virtual web site, but if would take a look at suexec as well) juggles with SCRIPT_NAME, ORIG_SCRIPTNAME etcetera. By the way: I am not saying one way is better than the other. PHP_SELF should reflect the url the client needs to call the same script again (right?). So maybe the way those cgi wrappers change the cgi environment should be changed. The "startscript" executable I use company wide uses the same logic for building ORIG_SCRIPTNAME etcetera as the old cgiwrap code it is slightly based on. But: this looks to me as a big change for a minor version number update. I would expect the same external behaviour between versions numbers that differ only behind the second dot. Maybe we should get it straight which environment variables php-cgi uses to create PHP_SELF and friends. If you need any more information, please tell me. (I am going to be on a holiday soon, but will be back...). Thanks, Jelmer Jellema Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-07-02 04:29:19] sriram dot natarajan at gmail dot com have you tried this issue with recent php 5.2.10 . r u able to reproduce this with 5.2.10 as well ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-25 14:22:35] allerlei+bugs dot php dot net at sihw dot nl Description: ------------ Bug #47625 was closed as bogus (because it would be the same as bug #47042) but it is not. In version 5.2.10 at least, PHP_SELF and SCRIPT_FILENAME are set based on the ORIG_SCRIPTNAME, while in version 5.2.8 these are based on SCRIPT_NAME. So bug #47042 fixes some bug, but introduces a new one. Therefore this is not a duplicate bug. It is not bogus because the values of PHP_SELF etc changed betwoon 5.2.10 without this being part of the specification for 5.2.10. It breaks a lot of code on my systems, including phpmyadmin and joomla. Problem is that PHP_SELF should refer to the URL before the internal redirect or external handler. This is a problematic requirement because of all the jugling with SCRIPTNAME and ORIG_SCRIPTNAME, but bug #47625 described the bug exactly. The problem might me in the naming: handlers put the redirection into ORIG_SCRIPTNAME and the original path in SCRIPTNAME. I use a handler called startscript that is called with some pathinfo like /../startscript/php/myuser/path/to/script/. So the path /centraal/scripts/info.php when called from a vsite owned by user jelmer, is rewritten to /usr/bin/startscript/php/jelmer/scripts/info.php but PHP_SELF should remain /centraal/scripts/info.php Thank you for your thougths, Jelmer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48695&edit=1
