Bug Type: cURL related
Operating System: Free BSD (i386)
PHP Version: 5.2.3
New Comment:
Some of my submission did not post properly:
The "Reproduce code" section should have this at the end:
print "4<br>";
The "Expected result" section should continue:
...to loop around again, and therefore print out "2<br" again.
Or if curl_multi_select($mh) was NOT equal to -1 then I would expect
php to print out "3<br>" regardless of whether it then went on to
execute curl_multi_exec.

Description:
------------
I am using (a slight variation of) the user-contributed example on this
page:http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/function.curl-multi-exec.php.
Sometimes it works and sometimes it causes php to fail, without
displaying any error notice (error reporting set to E_WARNING). I
cannot work out what it is that causes it to fail or not fail, but if I
run the same requests on the script multiple times it behaves the same
every time.
By getting php to print a message between each line of code I have
narrowed the problem down to this line:
if (curl_multi_select($mh) != -1)
This is the php info for the server:
http://phpinfo.hostultra.com/
The problem does NOT occur when the script is executed on my local
testing server (Mac OS X 10.4.8, PHP 5.2.1).
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$mh = curl_multi_init();
foreach(array_keys($arr_requests) as $i)
curl_multi_add_handle ($mh,$arr_requests[$i]); //each element of
$arr_requests is a curl handle
print "got as far as executing the curl stuff<br>"; while
(@ob_end_flush()); while (@flush());
do {
$mrc = curl_multi_exec($mh, $active);
} while ($mrc == CURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM && $active>0 &&
microtime(1)<$time);
print "1<br>"; while (@ob_end_flush()); while (@flush());
while ($active>0 and $mrc == CURLM_OK && microtime(1)<$time){
print "2<br>"; while (@ob_end_flush()); while (@flush()); //this gets
printed out fine
// wait for network
if (curl_multi_select($mh) != -1){
// pull in any new data, or at least handle timeouts
do {
print "3<br>"; while (@ob_end_flush()); while (@flush()); //php
never gets this far
$mrc = curl_multi_exec($mh, $active);
} while ($mrc == CURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM && $active>0 &&
microtime(1)<$time);
}
}//end while
Expected result:
----------------
If curl_multi_select($mh) was equal to -1 then I would expect the while
loop
while ($active>0 and $mrc == CURLM_OK && microtime(1)<$time)
Actual result:
--------------
PHP outputs:
got as far as executing the curl stuff
1
2
...and then it stops. The connection to the browser is no longer
active. That's it, it just stops there and does no more. No error
message.
Even if I change the line
if (curl_multi_select($mh) != -1)
to just
if (curl_multi_select($mh))
the result is exactly the same
