ID: 35926 Comment by: php-bug-35926 at ryandesign dot com Reported By: jeff95350 at yahoo dot com Status: No Feedback Bug Type: PHP options/info functions Operating System: FreeBSD 5.4 PHP Version: 4.4.1 New Comment:
For --with-config-file-path, you have specified the path to the php.ini file, but ./configure --help explains that you must specify the path to the *directory* in which php.ini can be found.

Below I have an example that appears to be contradictory, or at least extremely unintuitive. PHP reports that it is using a certain configuration file, but then ignores the contents. When I specify the configuration file directly, it works fine. While investigating, I also show GDB reporting a corrupted stack. Reproduce code: --------------- $ pwd /home/admin/install $ rm -rf php-4.4.1/ $ tar jxf ../download/php-4.4.1.tar.bz2 $ cd php-4.4.1/ $ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/admin --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/admin/etc/php.ini --with-config-file-scan-dir=/usr/local/admin/etc/php --with-pgsql --with-mysql --with-curl --with-gd --enable-fastcgi --with-openssl --with-zlib --enable-bcmath --with-bz2 --enable-calendar --enable-dba --with-db4 --with-mhash --with-mcrypt $ make && make install $ grep pgsql.allow_persistent /usr/local/admin/etc/php.ini pgsql.allow_persistent = Off $ /usr/local/admin/bin/php -i | grep Configuration <tr><td class="e">Configuration File (php.ini) Path </td><td class="v">/usr/local/admin/etc/php.ini </td></tr> <h1>Configuration</h1> Notice that php reports that it is using the config file "/usr/local/admin/etc/php.ini", and that that config file has pgsql.allow_persistent = Off. Expected result: ---------------- $ /usr/local/admin/bin/php -i | grep pgsql.allow_persistent <tr><td class="e">pgsql.allow_persistent</td><td class="v">Off</td><td class="v">Off</td></tr> $ /usr/local/admin/bin/php -i \ -c /usr/local/admin/etc/php.ini \ | grep pgsql.allow_persistent <tr><td class="e">pgsql.allow_persistent</td><td class="v">Off</td><td class="v">Off</td></tr> Actual result: -------------- Notice below how pgsql.allow_persistent is On when the config file says it should be Off. $ /usr/local/admin/bin/php -i | grep pgsql.allow_persistent <tr><td class="e">pgsql.allow_persistent</td><td class="v">On</td><td class="v">On</td></tr> Notice below how the config file obviously works. It's really just the php.ini-dist with all of the "allow_persistent" settings turned Off. Below I specify the config file explicitly and it works fine. $ /usr/local/admin/bin/php -i \ -c /usr/local/admin/etc/php.ini \ | grep pgsql.allow_persistent <tr><td class="e">pgsql.allow_persistent</td><td class="v">Off</td><td class="v">Off</td></tr> While investigating the problem, I saw some strange results from gdb: $ gdb /usr/local/admin/bin/php GNU gdb 6.1.1 [FreeBSD] Copyright 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Watchpoint 2 deleted. 0x281c7b07 in r_debug_state () from /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 (gdb) It looks like there's some kind of problem there, since gdb says "corrupt stack". I'm not particularly good with gdb, so maybe there's nothing wrong with PHP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=35926&edit=1
