Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70410&edit=1 ID: 70410 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: marco dot marsala at live dot it Summary: Wrong value for 'upload_content_length' -Status: Assigned +Status: Feedback Type: Bug Package: HTTP related Operating System: CentOS 6 PHP Version: 5.4.44 Assigned To: cmb Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The documentation of CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD[1] notes: | Since 7.19.4, this returns -1 if the size isn't known. As you're using newer versions in all cases, this does not matter. To properly diagnose the problem, we need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce this bug ourselves. A proper reproducing script starts with <?php, is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external resources such as databases, etc. If the script requires a database to demonstrate the issue, please make sure it creates all necessary tables, stored procedures etc. Please avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

The issue seems to happen with newer versions ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-09-02 15:04:04] cmb@php.net The different behavior may be caused by different libcurl versions (and not directly be related to PHP). Which libcurl version(s) do you use (see e.g. PHP info)? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-09-02 13:24:26] marco dot marsala at live dot it Description: ------------ In PHP 5.4.44 curl_getinfo($ch) for a POST request, returns an array where 'upload_content_length' is equal to the length of the post fields string. In PHP 5.3 'upload_content_length' is float(0) but 'size_upload' assumes that value. Seems that the behavior of PHP 5.3 is correct and PHP 5.4 is wrong (but maybe the opposite). This should be fixed or pointed out in the documentation as this glitch broken my script while downgrading php. --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.curl-getinfo --- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70410&edit=1
