Bug #51904 [Opn]: Can't get message from com_exception

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51904&edit=1 ID: 51904 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: spyfox dot home at gmail dot com Summary: Can't get message from com_exception Status: Open Type: Bug Package: COM related Operating System: Windows XP SP3 PHP Version: 5.3.2 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I can confirm the reported behavior (PHP-7.4). The problem is that the calling IDispatch_Invoke()[1] does neither populate the bstrSource nor the bstrDescription member of the EXCEPINFO. Still, the scode member holds 0x800A004C (CTL_E_PATHNOTFOUND), which may be used to retrieve a more useful error message.
