#19485 [NEW]: Buffer output even when output_buffering = Off

From: dnordenberg@users.sourceforge.net Operating system: Linux PHP version: 4.2.3 PHP Bug Type: Output Control Bug description: Buffer output even when output_buffering = Off I have set output_buffering to Off and tried something as simple as this: playmp3.php <? readfile("mymp3.mp3"); ?> And the entire output is buffered somewhere. I tried to open the url to the playmp3.php file in winamp and my server hdd LED lights up for about 8 seconds, after that winamp shows it is buffring for about 0.2 sec (LAN connection to the server) and then starts playing. Nothing is outputed from the server while the hdd LED is on and my slow server is terrible busy :( Sometimes the buffering takes more then 10 sec and winamp will time out. I'm using Apache 2.0.40 also. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19485&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19485&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19485&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19485&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19485&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19485&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19485&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19485&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19485&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19485&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19485&r=globals
