#47889 [NEW]: upload_max_filesize not taking effect but other variables are

From: kmcgrail at apache dot org Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.2.9 PHP Bug Type: *Configuration Issues Bug description: upload_max_filesize not taking effect but other variables are Description: ------------ I believe there is a bug, perhaps in phpinidir, where a specified php.ini file is not 100% parsed. Specifically, I am able to override many of the items but not the upload_max_filesize. Using this in httpd.conf: PHPIniDir /htdocs/<specific dir>/php.ini Changing variables in this ini file affects the phpinfo() command. For example, I can enable the ZendOptimizer, I can change post_max_size, etc. Changing variables in the default php.ini does NOT take effect. In short, I firmly believe I am editing the correct ini file. However, changing upload_max_filesize or upload_tmp_dir has NO effect on the phpinfo() / program functionality. Using .htaccess or editing httpd.conf to add something like the following, DOES work: php_value upload_max_filesize 5M To Reproduce the problem: copy default ini to an alternate location: Specify an alternate ini in httpd.conf PHPIniDir /htdocs/<specific dir>/php.ini write a quite phpinfo() script View the script and confirm Loaded Configuration File matches the specified ini file. Modify specified php.ini to edit upload_max_filesize and upload_tmp_dir. Restart server and view phpinfo() script. No changes are reflected. If the server does NOT use the command PHPIniDir /htdocs/<specific dir>/php.ini then editing the default php.ini in /usr/local/php-apache2/lib/php.ini DOES work One final note: Comparing the phpinfo() output from a specified ini install and a non-specified install show one more oddity. The section of the phpinfo() on the specified and the default matches with this text: This program makes use of the Zend Scripting Language Engine: Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2009 Zend Technologies BUT the specified one is missing the Powered by Zend Engine 2 logo. Perhaps this will help deduce where the issue lies. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47889&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=fixedcvs Fixed in CVS and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47889&r=mysqlcfg
