Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-07-02 12:05:40] cmb@php.net Related To: Bug #72532 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-07-02 12:03:03] cmb@php.net I can reproduce the described behavior (as of PHP 5.3.18 respectively 5.4.8), see <https://3v4l.org/U9bu8>. Interestingly, silencing the require statement results in no message at all, see <https://3v4l.org/N42dN>. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-06-23 11:10:07] theseer@php.net There seem to be more problems with internally generated errors, as the following testcase demonstrates: <?php set_exception_handler( function(Exception $e){ echo "-- handler --\n"; var_dump($e); exit(1); } ); set_error_handler( function($severity, $message, $file, $line) { throw new ErrorException($message, 0, $severity, $file, $line); } ); try { require 'non-existing-file.php'; } catch (\Exception $e) { echo "-- catch --\n"; var_dump($e); exit(2); } Expected result: Either a "classical" Fatal Error should occur or the warning for the missing file should be converted into an exception which in turn should be caught by catch() or at least by the global exception handler.

Should have ran it. That said, corrected the typo and it is still behaving exactly the same: Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'Hello world' in /Projects/web/test/bug.php on line 3 So far I've tested this on a machine running Mac OS X 10.8.6 and one running Windows (2012 server I think). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-12-02 08:11:04] laruence@php.net there is a typo in your example: should be: echo $e->getMessage(); after fixed that, I can not reproduce the bug you were describing ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
