#40031 [Opn->Bgs]: $_SERVER['HTTPS'] never empty on IIS

ID: 40031 Updated by: iliaa@php.net Reported By: matteo at beccati dot com -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: IIS related Operating System: Windows 2003 Server PHP Version: 5.2.0 New Comment: Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. The HTTPS var comes from IIS, PHP imports it along with other server variables.

Also replicated on IIS5.1/WinXP Pro Reproduce code: --------------- var_dump($_SERVER['HTTPS']); Expected result: ---------------- NULL Actual result: -------------- string(3) "off" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40031&edit=1
