ID: 38577 User updated by: php at diptyque dot net Reported By: php at diptyque dot net -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: mbstring related Operating System: FreeBSD 4.4 PHP Version: 4.4.4 New Comment:
I moved mbstring function overload initial setting (6) from my php.ini to specific virtual hosts configuration sections but to no avail. It would seem that some Apache processes get it right while others get it wrong (!) This is quite weird -- for example, process #58902 returns int(18) while #58914 returns int(19). [diptyque] % GET http://localhost/bugs/mbinfo2.php <pre>int(58902) string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(1) "0" string(19) "Méthodes de codage" int(19) -- bool(true) string(5) "UTF-8" string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(1) "0" string(19) "Méthodes de codage" int(18) -- bool(true) string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(1) "0" string(19) "Méthodes de codage" int(19) </pre> [diptyque] % GET http://localhost/bugs/mbinfo2.php <pre>int(58914) string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(1) "0" string(19) "Méthodes de codage" int(19) -- bool(true) string(5) "UTF-8" string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(1) "0" string(19) "Méthodes de codage" int(19) -- bool(true) string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(1) "0" string(19) "Méthodes de codage" int(19) </pre> Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-08-24 12:41:06] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Right, int(19) is what I get on Linux and FreeBSD 5.4. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-08-24 12:33:17] php at diptyque dot net Oops, my mistake. You should swap Expected and Actual results. Actual result is int(18) !? Expected result is int(19). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-08-24 12:28:30] php at diptyque dot net Granted I could not reproduce either this bug using a WAMP setup but did you follow the hyperlink I gave on my FreeBSD-based server, where you can consistently replicate this bug on each GET request? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-08-24 11:03:09] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Can't reproduce. I get int(19) in all cases. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-08-24 10:17:16] php at diptyque dot net Description: ------------ Changing internal character encoding during script execution apparently affects mbstring function overloading: strlen() returns the length of the string based on current internal encoding although function overloading is disabled (either through php.ini, vhost and/or .htaccess settings.) On apache 1.3 startup or graceful restart, script may run as expected but repeated requests would inevitably trigger the bug -- on my server setup, MediaWiki cannot run reliably because of this weird behavior :-/ The bug is not triggered when I do run this script under other SAPIs such as CLI or FastCGI. ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-mysql=/usr/local --with-openssl=/usr/local/apache --with-gd=/usr/local --with-zlib --with-bz2 --with-xml --with-freetype-dir=/usr/local --with-ttf --with-imap --with-curl --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local --with-png-dir=/usr/local --with-readline=/usr/local --prefix=/usr/local/apache --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/apache/etc --enable-mbstring --enable-mbregex --enable-zend-multibyte ; configure line Reproduce code: --------------- http://www.diptyque.net/bugs/mbinfo.php ; running PHP 4.4 as an apache module ; display charset is set to UTF-8 ; when internal encoding is set to UTF-8, ; strlen() returns the wrong character count ; (e.g. 18 instead of 19) http://www.diptyque.net/bugs/mbinfo.phps ; source code Expected result: ---------------- string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(1) "0" string(19) "Méthodes de codage" int(19) -- bool(true) string(5) "UTF-8" string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(1) "0" string(19) "Méthodes de codage" int(18) -- bool(true) string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(1) "0" string(19) "Méthodes de codage" Actual result: -------------- string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(1) "0" string(19) "Méthodes de codage" int(19) -- bool(true) string(5) "UTF-8" string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(1) "0" string(19) "Méthodes de codage" int(19) -- bool(true) string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(10) "ISO-8859-1" string(1) "0" string(19) "Méthodes de codage" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=38577&edit=1
