Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=79051&edit=1 ID: 79051 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: danielklein at airpost dot net Summary: putenv variables not accessible to dependent functions in Windows CLI -Status: Analyzed +Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: PHP options/info functions Operating System: Windows 10 PHP Version: 7.3.13 Assigned To: cmb Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: libcurl 7.69.1 has been released which fixes this issue, and will be used for the PHP 7.3.17 and 7.4.5 Windows builds, so I'm closing this ticket. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2020-02-13 09:25:25] cmb@php.net Update: a patch which fixes this issue regarding libcurl has just been landed[1]. It will take some time until this fix gets releases and we can update to the new libcurl version.

I just tried with a ZTS build, and now I could reproduce. Apparently, I didn't test a ZTS build before, even though I thought I did. Sorry. Anyhow, the problem is actually the missing part of bug #66265 for ZTS, which has never been addressed (the other ticket had been closed inadvertently). TL;DR: libcurl() currently calls getenv() to retrieve the environment variable, but in ZTS builds it is only set with SetEnvironmentVariable(), so is not available to libcurl. I'm afraid, though, that we can't do anything here without coordination with libraries using getenv() to retrieve environment variables. I just wrote to the curl library mailing list[1]; let's see how that goes.
