Bug #55541 [NEW]: errors spawn MessageBox, which blocks test automation

From: yaauie Operating system: Win32 PHP version: trunk-SVN-2011-08-30 (snap) Package: Output Control Bug Type: Bug Bug description:errors spawn MessageBox, which blocks test automation Description: ------------ Calls to the Win32 API MessageBox block automated testing. When the automation is spawned by a timed script, that script does not have access to the UI to close these messages. 3 places where MessageBox is called: Zend/zend_ini_parser.y:179 - instead of printing an INI parse error to stderr, *always* when PHP_WIN32 is defined. This means that the test suite does not catch the error on Windows machines (example parse error directive `php -n -d foo="a=href"`) and execution of automated tests is blocked until a user can click through. - example main/main.c:984 - in addition to other logging, but only if display_startup_errors is true and the error type is either E_CORE_WARNING or E_CORE_ERROR. - since display_startup_errors is set to true by the testing suite (and is required for many tests to pass), I cannot disable it. Perhaps a new ini directive should be created instead of having this one overloaded? sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c:1768 - only when PHP_DEBUG is defined. I don't have a big problem with this, since it is debug code, but perhaps it too could be governed by an ini directive. Test script: --------------- pass a deliberately-defective ini directive: php -n -d a=b=c -v Expected result: ---------------- --STDERR-- php: syntax error, unexpected '=' in Unknown on line 7 --STDOUT-- PHP 5.5.0-dev (cli) (built: Aug 30 2011 18:14:14) Copyright (c) 1997-2011 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.4.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2011 Zend Technologies Actual result: -------------- --BLOCKING-MESSAGEBOX-- --------------------------- PHP Error --------------------------- syntax error, unexpected '=' in Unknown on line 7 --------------------------- OK --------------------------- --STDERR--(nothing) --STDOUT-- PHP 5.5.0-dev (cli) (built: Aug 30 2011 18:14:14) Copyright (c) 1997-2011 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.4.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2011 Zend Technologies -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55541&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55541&r=mysqlcfg
