Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-27 17:26:15] befletch@yahoo.com Consider the following command line script: #!/usr/local/bin/php -q <?php exit( 0 ); ?> With PHP 4.1.2, this returned 0 to the calling process (e.g. the $? shell variable). With PHP 4.2.1, this no longer works - exit(0) returns 255. I don't know if this is intentional or not, but now the only way I can use 0 for success and !0 for errors is: $return_val = whatever(); if ( $return_val === 0 ) return 0; else exit( $return_val ); Can this be returned to the older way of doing things? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=18027&edit=1
