Did you upgrade your Apache installation too? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-02-14 13:56:59] fuitad at gmail dot com Ok, this is a nice explanation but our proxy servers (either ours or the Rex Swain HTTP Viewer) did not have that problem before PHP 5.2.1 and we also don't have this problem when we send out HTTP/1.1 requests to other servers. I'm pretty positive that this bug is not on the browser's end. I beg you to look again and see if it could be something else. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-02-14 07:49:00] mike@php.net You're seeing HTTP/1,1 chunked transfer encoding. If your proxy cannot understand HTTP/1.1 then it should send HTTP/1.0 requests. I can't see anything unusual here. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-02-14 02:59:31] fuitad at gmail dot com Description: ------------ Since we have upgraded our servers to PHP 5.2.1, some of our websites (Across 5 servers, using either Apache or Lighttpd) shows semi random characters at the top of each page and sometimes, also in other locations in the page content. Just to make this even harder to debug, it only happens for people who are connecting to our servers thru a proxy. For example, if you open www.fuitad.com via http://www.rexswain.com (Rex Swain's HTTP Viewer), you will see: 43a2(CR)(LF) <!DOCTYPE·html·PUBLIC·"-//W3C//DTD·XHTML·1.0·Transitional//EN"·"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">(LF) Now, obvioustly, this is not normal. The same error happens if you look at the following websites via the Rex Swain HTTP Viewer (or behind your favorite proxy): www.zestuff.com www.vgcats.com www.nuklearpower.com www.cad-comic.com Again, this does not happen to everybody. We think it only occurs for people behind a proxy. I tried recompiling PHP numerous times ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40472&edit=1
