ID: 2673 Updated by: sander@php.net Reported By: agent86@earthling.net -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Misbehaving function Operating System: NT4 sp5 PHP Version: 3.0.11 New Comment: Thank you for taking the time to report a problem with PHP. Unfortunately, PHP 3 is no longer supported. Please download the latest version of PHP 4 from http://www.php.net/downloads.php If you are able to reproduce the bug with one of the latest versions of PHP, please change the PHP version on this bug report to the version you tested and change the status back to "Open". Again, thank you for your continued support of PHP. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [1999-11-05 19:19:35] agent86@earthling.net The following script will crash php every time. It is actually any of the calendar functions that cause the crash. I tried most of the jd to something functions. $jdate=filectime("d:/somedir/somefile"); $filedate=jdtogregorian($jdate); This causes a crash. The dialog box title is: OleMainThreadWndName:php.exe - Application Error The dialog box contents: The instruction at "0x0042447d" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read". Click OK to terminate the application I realize I am passing a timestamp instead of julian count. Originally I did this unintentionally. What my error exposed is that passing a julian day count that is very large to the jdtosomething functions will cause them to crash php instead of merely generating an error message. This occurs whether the module is loaded in php.ini or dynamically with dl(). I also get the same crash when I run the script in a dos box (no web server). Not a serious bug, but it does cause a crash (at least for the NT version) if you pass a large number (like a timestamp) to the calendar functions. Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=2673&edit=1
