 Bug Type:         dBase related
 Operating System: All
 PHP Version:      5CVS-2003-05-03 (dev)
 New Comment:

dbase2 has never been supported, and differs too much from 
dbase3+ to support it easily. Instead, now an error will be shown 
should you try to open a dbase2 (or earlier version) file.

Experiencing the same problem with PHP 4.3.0 running a Mac OSX Server
environement. It is running Apache 1.3.27. A customers web page is
trying to access an old dbase file (not sure which version of dbase)
that may (or may not) have been created using Microsoft Excel (.dbf)
and when the page is called, it simply returns you to the same page,
without open the dbase file and no errors are being reported. I
compiled (and recompiled) PHP with --enable-dbase, and nothing.

Seems that dBase II files are not supported. Even there is no 
error when using dbase_() functions on such database. 
 
It would be enough to just return ,,-1'' but the main problem is 
how to detect if we are dealing with dBase II.
