#17047 [Opn->Fbk]: INFORMIXSERVER not being read

ID: 17047 Updated by: iliaa@php.net Reported By: pedietz@west.com -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Informix related Operating System: aix 4.3.3 PHP Version: 4.2.0 New Comment: Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-latest.zip Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-05-06 14:13:03] pedietz@west.com Also of note, I have register_global = On. phpinfo() shows: register_global = On and On INFORMIXSERVER = ibm65 ifx.default_host = ibm65 Yet it still requires me to do this: putenv("INFORMIXSERVER=ibm65"); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-05-06 13:41:08] pedietz@west.com The following php script does not work.... <?php // print the value of my INFORMIXSERVER variable echo getenv("INFORMIXSERVER"); $conn_id = ifx_connect ("db@ibm65"); ?> it prints: ibm65 Warning: ifx_connect: E [SQLSTATE=IX 000 SQLCODE=-25560] in test.php on line 14 25560 means that INFORMIXSERVER is not set in the env. Which is crazy because I getenv it and echo it. But the following works: <?php putenv("INFORMIXSERVER=ibm65"); $conn_id = ifx_connect ("db@ibm65"); ?> So it seems that the environment variable INFORMIXSERVER is not being read correctly. Besides having INFORMIXSERVER set in my env, I also have set the /usr/local/lib/php.ini ifx.default_host=ibm65. Yet neither work. I have to putenv() the value explicitly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=17047&edit=1
