New Comment:
I am currently tracing bug that is somehow related to sprintf with %d
parameters.
first it occured with dotproject project-environment, on line looking
like this (PEAR date package, format method):
$output .= sprintf("%02d",$this->month);
Again with phpmyadmin, file defines.lib.php line 47:
define('PMA_PHP_INT_VERSION', (int)sprintf('%d%02d%02d', $match[1],
$match[2], $match[3]));
I can not reproduce this just by creating new script, creating match
array and running that define - everything works just FINE!
Server is:
php version 4.4.0
Linux hostname 2.4.7-10 #1 Thu Sep 6 16:46:36 EDT 2001 i686
I was able to bypass this by installing dotproject to another server
with php 4.3.5 / Linux hostname 2.4.27-grs-smp #1 SMP Thu Sep 16
22:12:09 EEST 2004 i686
WHAT IS IMPORTANT is that I copy pasted from your code lines:
$year = 2005;
$month = 3;
$day = 24;
$time = '09:00';
$s = sprintf("%04d-%02d-%02dT%s:00", $year, $month, $day, $time);
to file defines.lib.php before line 47 and these lines from your code
made system just silently die in a same way that lines I have
presented. I have debugged this by using exit before and after these
problem lines.
So your lines made the same error I am tracing. Error is that nothing
is returned to the browser. Script just silently dies on calling
sprintf. So we are getting at least some hint that your error is also
sprintf -related!
I am totally confused what causes this. I do not know if this is php
bug, but wanted to comment it here to make some more glues to anyone
having this problem.

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

Is it still reproducible ?
If yes, is it reproducible on NON-win32 systems ?

Any chance of PHP catching the exception in putenv/gettenv and chucking
a more informative error? Would help anyone else who hits this problem.

Pierre promised to look into this..(or rather bogus this with good
explanation..)

Looks like this bug has been encountered before:
http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=2344
.. but the Date package owners maintain that it's not their problem.
(Dunno how I didn't find that earlier :-/ I did search the bug DBs
before posting, honest!)
