ID: 17958 Updated by: derick@php.net Reported By: ddp@deakin.edu.au -Status: Open +Status: Critical Bug Type: Apache2 related Operating System: Linux 2.4.18 PHP Version: 4.2.3 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-16 09:19:23] marc@twisted-pair.de I currently have got the problem of lost _POST-Vars even without the enctype=... stuff. All post vars are lost. Browsers: Mozilla/1.0, lynx OS: Debian Linux/PPC Server: Apache 2.0.40 PHP: 4.2.3/4.3.0(cvs) Is there any "workaround"? (e.g. downgrading Apache or PHP) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-12 07:24:01] kalowsky@php.net updating version ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-12 05:42:28] ichwilleineemailadresse@gmx.net The Bug still appears in PHP 4.2.3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-26 10:12:39] arash@yalpani.de I have a similar problem using PHP 4.2.2 and Apache 1.3.23. But only the first value of the $_POST-vars gets lost. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-21 19:15:37] clindh@homenet.se I just encountered symptoms quite similar to what you report here. I lost the first field from my POST:ed data when I had enctype"multipart/form-data" encoding on the form - with default encoding it worked fine. I never lost all POST:ed values though; just the first one (which happens to be a hidden field, but PHP does not know that). I know this worked fine with the same browser (IE6) while we were running PHP 4.1, we recently upgraded. This is with PHP 4.2.2 and Apache 1.3.26 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
