From: khascall at uchicago dot edu Operating system: any PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: max size of the post_max_size variable in php.ini
Description: ------------ It seems that the post_max_size variable has a maximum of 2047M -- setting it to 2048M or larger causes many bad things to happen, in particular it clobbers all of my POST data. I assume this is because if you are storing 2048M as an unsigned int and then treating it as an signed int later, the code is comparing the POST data size with a negative number. I felt so much pain and confusion before I found this! This should be documented and should probably cause an error of some kind. It's too late for you to save me -- please, save the others! -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=35578&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=trysnapshot51 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35578&r=mysqlcfg
