Bug #8725 Updated: Fun with putenv

ID: 8725 Updated by: david@djwhome.demon.co.uk -Reported By: mikhail@whasup.com +Reported By: david@djwhome.demon.co.uk Status: Open Bug Type: Program Execution Operating System: SCO Openserver 5.05 PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 New Comment: The following URL may be relevant. Basically, SCO's Bourne shell doesn't tolerate broken environments whereas other shells silently ignore errors. <http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&selm=7k1b53%24aun%241%40elf.bsdi.com> (I'd appreciate any alternative explanations of this error when using system() on SCO Unix, by direct email.) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-24 17:39:35] mikhail@whasup.com The workaround for the problem with "freeaddrinfo" and "getaddrinfo" was to undefine HAVE_GETADDRINFO in main/php_config.h. The original problem with "putenv" is still there in 4.1.0 compiled with the latest to date apache 1.3.22 Sorry. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-23 17:04:25] mikhail@whasup.com I can't tell because I can't compile it. Since last time we spoke, I upgraded to SCO OpenServer 5.06 and right now I can't compile even those versions of PHP I used to compile without a problem under 5.05. The error I'm getting is (after removing "-silent " from libtool): gcc -I. -I/tmp/php-4.1.0/ -I/tmp/php-4.1.0/main -I/tmp/php-4.1.0 \ -I/tmp/php-4.1.0/Zend -I/tmp/php-4.1.0/ext/mysql/libmysql \ -I/tmp/php-4.1.0/ext/xml/expat -I/tmp/php-4.1.0/TSRM \ -g -O2 -o php stub.o ./.libs/libphp4.a -ldl -lcrypt -lresolv -lm -lsocket Undefined first referenced symbol in file freeaddrinfo ./.libs/libphp4.a(network.o) getaddrinfo ./.libs/libphp4.a(network.o) php: fatal error: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to php collect2: ld returned 1 exit status There is probably something in the environment of SCO 5.06 (or my particular environment) that is causing it. I even tried the very latest gcc (3.0.3) and gnu compiling tools to no avail. I'll get back to you if I can figure out the problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-22 06:57:31] lobbin@php.net Does this still happen with 4.1.0? R. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-05-08 06:25:56] mikhail@whasup.com Unfortunately, my SCO Unix machine isn't available for access from outside. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-05-07 20:01:38] zeev@php.net This apperas to be SCO specific so it's not very fixable. Remarking as 'Open'. mikhail@whasup.com, will it be possible to have a temporary account on your machine to debug this? Or does anybody else have access to this platform? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
