#26833 [Opn->Bgs]: Globals not being defined with 'register_globals On' at random

ID: 26833 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: php at f0e dot net -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: *General Issues Operating System: FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p10 PHP Version: 4.3.4 New Comment: Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely to be the same. Thank you for your interest in PHP. Yes, this is same issue as in bug #25753 (no need to add any comments there..unless you can provide a testcase with which this bug can be reproduced reliably everywhere..) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-01-07 20:26:35] php at f0e dot net I am positive there are no php_* flags in the httpd.conf, but there is: php_flag register_globals off php_value magic_quotes_gpc off in a .htaccess in a different vhost/directory. I configured apache2 with the following: ./configure \ --enable-so \ --enable-ssl \ --enable-rewrite \ --enable-suexec \ --enable-deflate \ --enable-expires \ --enable-headers \ --enable-speling \ --with-suexec-caller=apache \ --with-suexec-docroot=/home \ --with-suexec-logfile=/var/log/suexec_log \ --with-suexec-uidmin=500 \ --with-suexec-gidmin=500 FYI: this error? occurs with the 4.3.5-dev snapshot as well. Are you thinking that it is apache getting confused and allowing custom php flags from other vhosts interfer? Maybe I'm submitting to the wrong bug tracker :) Thanks again ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-01-07 20:07:24] sniper@php.net One more thing: How was apache2 configured? (what MPM is used?) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-01-07 20:06:26] sniper@php.net Are you ABSOLUTELY sure there aren't ANY of those php_* flags used ANYWHERE in your httpd.conf/.htaccess files? (in ANY vhost, etc.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-01-07 20:02:00] php at f0e dot net I added: var_dump(ini_get('register_globals')); to the top of the code.. When $REMOTE_ADDR was being defined correctly, the first line was 'string(1) "1"'. After a few more refreshes, $REMOTE_ADDR wasn't defined and the first line was changed to 'string(1) "0"'. I do not have a .htaccess file in the script's directory or parent directory nor am I setting any php values in the httpd.conf. I will try the snapshot. Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-01-07 19:49:59] sniper@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip And do you by any chance set any php.ini options inside any .htaccess file or in httpd.conf ? (with php_flag / php_value / php_admin_flag / php_admin_value) Also, check that register_globals is actually 'On' during execution by adding this to your test script: var_dump(ini_get('register_globals')); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
