Compiling the pcre extension from pcre 8.10 fixed the compilation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-12-24 13:21:48] fogia_4 at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ Although one of my regular expressions was compiled smoothly with php-5.3.3, I get the following exception message with php-5.3.4: Exception: preg_match(): Compilation failed: unknown option bit(s) set at offset 0 Test script: --------------- $symbol = "\xE2\x89\xA1"; $operands = 'a:3:{i:0;s:115:"/left\.operand'.$symbol.'(.?)(operand\.([^'.$symbol.']*)'.$symbol.'?([^'.$symbol.']*)?)?|right\.operand'.$symbol.'(.?)(operand\.([^'.$symbol.']*)'.$symbol.'?([^'.$symbol.']*)?)?/u";i:1;s:18:"left.operand'.$symbol.'⇒";i:2;N;}'; $op = unserialize( $operands ); $operand_pattern = $op[0]; $operand_index = $op[1]; $operand_matches = $op[2]; echo $operand_pattern, '<br />'.'<br / >'; echo $operand_index; $operand_match = preg_match( $operand_pattern, $operand_index, $operand_matches ); Expected result: ---------------- The string stored in the variable called 'operand_pattern' should be compiled as a valid regular expression. Actual result: -------------- An exception is thrown. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53605&edit=1
