Bug #16626 Updated: Only last cookie set

ID: 16626 Updated by: red@tripany.com Reported By: svein.olav@bjerkeset.com Status: Duplicate Bug Type: Apache2 related Operating System: All PHP Version: 4.2.1 New Comment: Well after extensive testing, I have to conclude it's probably not a php (alone) problem. I have tried: PHP ver. Apache ver. --enable-so works? error --------------------------------------------------------- 4.2.1 2.0.39 yes no yes 2.1 36 yes yes no 2.0 39 yes no yes 2.0 36 no no yes 2.0 36 yes yes no 4.0.3pl1 1.3.9 ? yes ? (4.0.3pl1 is the standard debian package) The rest of the 2.1 installations (with apache 39) don't work and give errors, so there's some problem with the apxs interaction between php and httpd 2.0.39. As php2.1.0 works with httpd 2.0.36 I'm now assuming there was a change in the apxs of apache in the security fix version which renders the multiple cookies unwriteable. I'll send this off to apache as well.

Under 4.2.0, I get the same behaviour, so maybe it is apache? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-20 07:41:07] derick@php.net Dup of #17663, please update only that bugreport! Derick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-20 07:27:00] red@tripany.com Hi, I've installed Apache 2.0.39 on Debian 2.2 and 2.4, which went fine. Then installing php 4.2.1, the configure goes fine, ./configure --prefix=/opt/php-4.2.1 --enable-force-cgi-redirect --enable-ftp --enable-magic-quotes --enable-bcmath --enable-calendar --enable-dbase --enable-dbx --enable-ftp --enable-gd-native-ttf --enable-mbstring --enable-track-vars --enable-ucd-snmp-hack --enable-sockets --enable-sysvsem --enable-sysvshm --enable-yp --enable-shared=PKGS --enable-debug --enable-memory-limit --with-zlib --with-gd --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib --with-tiff-dir=/usr/lib --with-png-dir=/usr/lib --with-mysql --with-snmp --with-apxs2=/opt/httpd-2.0.39/bin/apxs It finds apache2 support, and suggests using apache2filter (which I think it should be doing) but the make gives an error: gcc -I. -I/usr/local/src/php/php-4.2.1/sapi/apache2filter -I/usr/local/src/php/php-4.2.1/main -I/usr/local/src/php/php-4.2.1 -I/opt/httpd-2.0.39/include -I/usr/local/src/php/php-4.2.1/Zend -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/src/php/php-4.2.1/ext/mysql/libmysql -I/usr/include/ucd-snmp -I/usr/local/src/php/php-4.2.1/ext/xml/expat -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/local/src/php/php-4.2.1/TSRM -DTHREAD=1 -g -O2 -pthread -Wall -DZTS -c php_functions.c -fPIC -DPIC -o php_functions.lo php_functions.c:93: parse error make[3]: *** [php_functions.lo] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/php/php-4.2.1/sapi/apache2filter' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/php/php-4.2.1/sapi/apache2filter' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/php/php-4.2.1/sapi' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Now if I delete lines 92, 93 and 94 from sapi/apache2filter/php_functions.c which are: #if !MODULE_MAGIC_AT_LEAST(20020506,0) ADD_STRING(boundary); #endif and then continue the make, it all seems to go fine. Make install copies everything to the right directory and doing a <? phpinfo() ?> shows that everything should be functioning neatly. Now the problem! When writing cookies to a client, sometimes the cookie will not be written and sometimes it will be - this behaviour is consistent in terms of site a will never write the cookies, but site b will always write the cookie! (see code below) Never works setcookie("netuser", $row["werknemer_ID"], time()+3600, "/"); setcookie["netlanguage", $row["row_lang"], time()+3600,"/"); setcookie["netlastlogin", $row["last_login"], time()+3600,"/"); $werknemer_ID=$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["netuser"]; Always works setcookie("user", $userID, time()+(3600*3), "/") $userID=$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["soluser"]; The only thing we've managed to figure out is that in the first example, we write to the cookie 3 times (using similar statements) and in the second example we only create the cookie once. Every time we write to the cookie again, it overwrites (deletes) the old cookies and replaces it with the last cookie. So what you end up with, is the netlastlogin cookie, and netuser and netlanguage don't exist on the client harddrive. This used to work under php4.2.0! Under apache 2.0.36 and php 4.2.0 compiled with the same settings, I never experienced this behaviour and I have no idea what's causing it! Any help is much appreciated! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-05-17 03:12:48] jwoolley@php.net This bug has been fixed in CVS. You can grab a snapshot of the CVS version at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/. In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better. Patch committed. Thanks, regina! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-05-12 15:17:09] redeye@cs-aktuell.de Just ran into this problem as i was running apache 2 under win2k with php 4.2.0 installed as apache module. No Cookie seemed to be set correctly. I solved this problem by running PHP as CGI binary. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
