Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2021-09-17 15:21:52] cmb@php.net Thank you for reporting this issue, and also for linking to the SO question. Pete's answer[1] is very useful, and spot on. It seems to me the proper solution would be for http_response_code() to call sapi_header_op(SAPI_HEADER_SET_STATUS, …) instead of manually setting SG(sapi_headers).http_response_code.

If it is not fixable, I guess it must be in the official documentation here https://www.php.net/manual/ru/function.http-response-code.php and the function must be recognized as deprecated.
