#19287 [Opn->Csd]: updating from 4.2.2 to 4.2.3 file_exists fails

ID: 19287 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: soletan@toxa.de -Status: Open +Status: Closed Bug Type: Apache2 related Operating System: Linux 2.4.18 PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: If it works -> closed. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-09 02:00:30] soletan@toxa.de Okay, I feel a bit under-informed about snaps.php.net ... after realising by using phpinfo, that STABLE-foo is still 4.2.3 I took same snapshot without "STABLE" ... Downloading php4-200209082100.tgz, do the same before (configure.nice,all,install,restart apache). Additionally I turned back another snippet of code where I used file_exists before including. After doing that it didn't run under 4.2.3 again. The code initially turned back still did a good job and I don't know why - it's assumed to be passed before the second snippet of code gets parsed and executed. Well, after restarting apache I first assumed to have 4.3.0-dev running, then calling the script with both places turned back to use file_exists and everything was fine there. For some further assertion I installed 4.2.3 again, checked this installation with phpinfo and reloaded the site and it didn't work ... I cycled another time to proove my tests finally and that's my closing line: it works under 4.3.0-dev. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-09 01:24:29] soletan@toxa.de So, I installed snapshot php4-STABLE-200209082100.tgz with my old configure.nice, made "all install" and restarted apache. Then I turned back what I've changed to workaround that "bug" and reloaded the page. He did it "fortunately". Then I changed to php-4.2.3-installation dir and made install and restarted Apache again. It kept on doing it. Damn, I really called the script several times before, restarted apache and the whole and he didn't. I can't explain and guess you don't, too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-08 14:09:41] fillmore@NRCan.gc.ca Tests show this is also the cause of a 4.2.3 include file bug- my bug #19291. I'm using an iPlanet 4.x NSAPI configuration. Any chance there will be a fix before 4.3.0? (ie. 4.2.4?) Thanks, Bob Fillmore ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-08 09:38:54] sander@php.net I expect it to take couple of months... there were many changes to many core parts of PHP and we haven't even started the QA process... Can you try the latest CVS (or a non-STABLE snapshot from http://snaps.php.net/) to make sure it has been fixed? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-08 09:22:39] soletan@toxa.de okay, it's Apache2 SAPI here, too. When will 4.3.0 be published finally? I can't use dev-versions on a production web site ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
