Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-10 21:06:57] dams@php.net Here is a simple code for this : <?php curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp.dds.be"); // this is an example curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, 1); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 5); print "OK until now\n"; var_dump( $retour = curl_exec ($ch)); ?> When the protocol is not specified, and the host name starts with ftp., there is a conflict segfault. It seems to have a conflict where curl choose automatically ftp protocole for ftp.*.* sites, but the script ask for http header. Then php crashes. This has been found with PHP 4.1.0/4.1.1 for windows, and PHP 4.1.2/ curl 7.9.4 PHP should return an error, but not crash. Note that when specifying the protocol, (eg, "http://ftp.site.com"), it works fine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15989&edit=1
