#19460 [Com]: HTTP_POST_VARS trims 4 characters from left side of each field with array name

ID: 19460 Comment by: dmarks@seattlemortgage.com Reported By: khalil@paksys.com Status: Closed Bug Type: mbstring related Operating System: Linux 2.4.9-34 (RedHat 7.2) PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: I have compiled php 4.2.3 with the --disable-mbstr-enc-trans argument but I am still receiving the same problem. Is there another argument or something else that I am missing? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-17 01:54:11] yohgaki@php.net The problem is fixed in 4.2.4-dev. So try STABLE cvs version if you would like. BTW, 4.2.x's (and 4.3.0) --enable-enc-trans is default to off. You must have --enable-mbstring. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-17 00:28:21] derick@php.net Use --disable-mbstr-enc-trans then... for some reason it was on by default in 4.2.3, and that is correctedd ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-16 16:46:45] mitch@unixprogramming.net What about people that are running production servers that have been bitten by this! We can't use CVS versions of PHP! The workaround described as [remove --enable-mbstr-enc- trans] isn't valid as I never compiled my PHP with -- enable-mbstr-enc-trans in the first place :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-16 00:42:51] derick@php.net This bug has been fixed in CVS. In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/. In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-16 00:10:36] lamart@nikoli.net What does it mean "This has been fixed in CVS"? Do I need to get a new copy of cvs? If so, where do I get it? Or is CVS a place where I can get a new copy of php? If so, where is this "cvs"? More info. needed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
