Very interesting problem...this published regexp:
^(?=.*\d)(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z]).{4,8}$
was working with my PHP4.3.0 on Win32 platform
and on 4.3.0 on RedHat8.0 (all RH patches installed).
However, this regexp is NOT working on RedHat 9
with Apache 2.0. Any ideas why?
Gives REG_BADRPT message....Simple regexp's DO work.
This regexp compiles if you remove the ?'s (but of
course...will not do what I want it to!)...and of course
the string is:
$regexp="^(?=.*\\d)(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z]).{4,8}\$";
taken directly from http://regexlib.com
BTW: libiconv 1.8 is installed. mbstring is loaded
and all encodings are set to UTF8...yes, ereg is not 8 bit safe...know
that...hope this ain't the problem.
4.3.1 was compiled with --with-regex=system...however, it appears to
use "bundled" regexp anyway. (tried with regex=php and
regex=system...both produce same results..ie. used bundled regexp
library).
this is NOT an Apache problem....php CGI version produces same
results...even though somewhere in the depths I read "php must be
compiled with the same regexp version as apache if php loaded as
module". I hear what this is saying, but I don't understand how to
determine this...and, like I said...CGI version produces same result.
Mayble I'll try --with-regexp=apache...see what happens...
If this is the same thing as Bug #1683...sorry...please combine with
that one....but...I'm not sure it's the same.
any response may be helpful...HLP!
