#26206 [Opn->Dup]: argv and argc not defined

ID: 26206 Updated by: danielc@php.net Reported By: danielc at analysisandsolutions dot com -Status: Open +Status: Duplicate Bug Type: CGI related Operating System: Windows 2000 PHP Version: 5CVS-2004-01-08 New Comment: In the current thread, Jani pointed out that this is related to bug 25724 -- http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=25724 -- which says that when register_long_arrays is off, the superglobals are broken. So, until that bug is fixed, turn register_long_arrays = On in php.ini to get $_SERVER['argv'] and $_SERVER['argc'] to work.

He also made a very interesting observation that $argv and $argc ARE set. EXAMPLE SCRIPT argvtest.php: <?php var_dump($argv); var_dump($_SERVER['argv']); ?> INVOCATION: C:\PROGRA~1\php>php argvtest.php 1 2 OUTPUT: array(3) { [0]=> string(12) "argvtest.php" [1]=> string(1) "1" [2]=> string(1) "2" } Notice: Undefined index: argv in C:\PROGRA~1\php\argvtest.php on line 3 NULL ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-01-08 13:14:25] danielc at analysisandsolutions dot com No dice using php5-win32-200401081130 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-01-07 21:38:51] sniper@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5-win32-latest.zip Please try the latest snapshot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-12-01 13:57:39] danielc at analysisandsolutions dot com Everything worked fine until I switched from php5-win32-200310010230.zip to php5-win32-200311040330.zip I will track down exactly which snapshot in this time period started causing the problem.
