Bug description: register globals not loading from ini file
Description:
------------
I have some legacy scripts that require register_globals to be 'on'. I
had this working under 4.3.3 but upgraded this morning to 4.3.5 and it no
longer works, even though I'm using the same ini file.
Basic behaviour is that webforms generated by the PHP will not post - i.e.
variables created by posting are not available in the scope of the PHP
script. (We had this problem upon upgrading from PHP 3 to PHP 4.3.3 but
it went away upon switching on register_globals.)
Running echo(ini_get('register_globals')) prints 0.
Running phpinfo() tells me that the path to php.ini is /usr/local/lib.
In /usr/local/lib/php.ini I have register_globals = On and safe_mode=off.
Configure line is: './configure' '--with-oci8=/opt/oracle/product/8.1.7'
'--with-apxs=/usr/internet/httpd/bin/apxs'
Reproduce code:
---------------
echo(ini_get('register_globals'))
Expected result:
----------------
Expect it to print 1 when php.ini file says register_globals = On.
Actual result:
--------------
0
