Actually It made me drop the idea to store objects in database and I used the conventional way to solve the problem. So it was frustrating.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-03 01:00:11] php-bugs at lists dot php dot net No feedback was provided for this bug for over a week, so it is being suspended automatically.

The serialized string I tried to store in the database was: O:8:"Psa_User":3:{s:9:" * groups";a:0:{}s:13:" * last_login";i:0;s:10:"test_value";i:391;} and when I put output from serialize() in hex editor you can see some null characters: 00000000h: 4F 3A 38 3A 22 50 73 61 5F 55 73 65 72 22 3A 33 ; O:8:"Psa_User":3 00000010h: 3A 7B 73 3A 39 3A 22 00 2A 00 67 72 6F 75 70 73 ; :{s:9:".*.groups 00000020h: 22 3B 61 3A 30 3A 7B 7D 73 3A 31 33 3A 22 00 2A ; ";a:0:{}s:13:".* 00000030h: 00 6C 61 73 74 5F 6C 6F 67 69 6E 22 3B 69 3A 30 ; .last_login";i:0 00000040h: 3B 73 3A 31 30 3A 22 74 65 73 74 5F 76 61 6C 75 ; ;s:10:"test_valu 00000050h: 65 22 3B 69 3A 33 39 31 3B 7D ; e";i:391;} The value in query that should update the database is truncated to the first null character in string. That is true for prepared statements with PDO->prepare() and also for only escaped values with PDO->quote(). When using the same code with mysql_pdo driver queries are not truncated and the null characters are stored in the database blob object. I used base64_encode and decode functions to workaround this and stored base64 encoded string in the database. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
