From: wenz Operating system: Windows 8.1 PHP version: master-Git-2014-06-10 (Git) Package: PHP options/info functions Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Windows 8.1/Server 2012 R2 reported as Windows 8/Server 2012 Description: ------------ The phpinfo() output on Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 reports the OS as Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012. This is due to the deprecation of GetVersionEx (which we are using) on these platforms - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dn302074%28v=vs.85%29.aspx Once we compile the Windows builds with the Visual Studio 2013 compiler and the Windows 8.1 SDK, _NT_TARGET_VERSION=$(_NT_TARGET_VERSION_LATEST) seems to help. However until then we need a different approach. VerifyVersionInfo (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms725491%28v=vs.85%29.aspx) looks like the best solution to me. It is slower than GetVersionEx, so we should only run it if we detect Windows 8/Server 2012 and then need to decide whether it's 8.1/2012 R2 instead. The attached patch proposes an implementation. Test script: --------------- <?php phpinfo(INFO_GENERAL); Expected result: ---------------- Output contains "Windows 8.1" on a Windows 8.1 machine. Output contains "Windows Server 2012 R2" on a Windows Server 2012 R2 machine. Actual result: -------------- Output contains "Windows 8" (and not 8.1) on a Windows 8.1 machine. Output contains "Windows Server 2012" (and not R2) on a Windows Server 2012 R2 machine. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67407&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=67407&r=mysqlcfg
