Bug #72686 [NEW]: zlib: url support is broken, that may be a good thing

From: ekobrin at akamai dot com Operating system: PHP version: master-Git-2016-07-27 (Git) Package: Streams related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:zlib: url support is broken, that may be a good thing Description: ------------ Line 1772 of streams.c is: '} else if (n == 5 && strncasecmp(path, "zlib:", 5) == 0) ' This is a bug. If path starts with "zlib:" then n will be 4, not 5. Since this branch can never be entered, and it only exists to support a deprecated stream type, I suggest simple deleting the entire "else" clause. Test script: --------------- readfile("zlib:file.gz"); Expected result: ---------------- gzip content is extracted, warning (Use of "zlib:" wrapper is deprecated; please use "compress.zlib://" instead) is printed Actual result: -------------- Warning (failed to open stream: No such file or directory) is printed -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=72686&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72686&r=mysqlcfg
