Bug #63330 [NEW]: phpinfo() reports configuration that is not applicable

From: eis at iki dot fi Operating system: Windows/IIS PHP version: 5.3.18 Package: PHP options/info functions Bug Type: Bug Bug description:phpinfo() reports configuration that is not applicable Description: ------------ On windows, phpinfo() reports things set in the registry even though they are of type PHP_INI_PERDIR, so they are in fact not in effect, as documented in http://php.net/manual/en/configuration.changes.php. Notably upload_max_filesize and post_max_size are values that for example Plesk users keep hitting their heads with, as can be seen in these discussions: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11730198/php-post-max-size-local-value- overridden-by-master-value-on-plesk-iis http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13007906/php-upload-500-internal-server- error/13008975 Tested on IIS 7.5 system. Test script: --------------- Set post_max_size on the registry. Check phpinfo() output. Expected result: ---------------- post_max_value not having impact on phpinfo() as it is PHP_INI_PERDIR setting and has no impact on PHP. Actual result: -------------- post_max_value updated as per registry on phpinfo() output, even though not effecting PHP. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63330&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63330&r=mysqlcfg
