#23065 [NEW]: Under some circumstances retval is broken.

From: bole at EUnet dot yu Operating system: Linux, 2.4.20 PHP version: 4.3.2RC1 PHP Bug Type: Program Execution Bug description: Under some circumstances retval is broken. Hmm.. this one is a little bit tricky. I do something like this: system ("/usr/bin/ssh -l someuser somehost /path/somescr.pl", $return); Executing that command (from the same user as apache runs) back EVERY TIME correct retval. But, when called from Apache+PHP (no matter if safe_mode is enabled nor disabled) and if somescr.pl outputs something on STDOUT, retval randomly vary (0 or 255). somescr.pl is: #! /usr/bin/perl print "OK"; exit 0; Tried exec() and passthru (), results are the same. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=23065&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23065&r=gnused
