Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71151&edit=1 ID: 71151 Updated by: ajf@php.net Reported by: daniel dot korner at tu-dortmund dot de Summary: File which contains only "<?php" isn't interpreted Status: Open Type: Bug Package: *General Issues Operating System: Linux 4.2.5-1-Arch PHP Version: 7.0.1 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Looks like this has been broken since 5.4: https://3v4l.org/kuLmD Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-12-17 19:04:30] daniel dot korner at tu-dortmund dot de Description: ------------ By accident I created a file that only contains "<?php". This file has no space, line break or other character following after the last "p". In this case, the php interpreter does not interpret the file and simply returns the string "<?php". If I then add a space, line break or other whitespace character after the last "p", the interpreters starts to interpret the .php file correctly and returns an empty string. I could reproduce this behaviour with PHP 7.0.0 and PHP 7.0.1 but not with PHP 5.6.16 on a Computer running Linux (4.2.5-1-ARCH x86_64). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71151&edit=1
