Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-10 19:46:16] jeff at qoolio dot org Description: ------------ I am using PHP5 beta 4 and am experiencing a failure to redirect when using the header() function with the Location HTTP header. I have found that adding a print(" ") line after the header() call results in a successful redirect. My configuration is: #!/bin/sh ./configure \ --prefix=/opt \ --enable-inline-optimization \ --disable-short-tags \ --with-apache-hooks=/opt/httpd/bin/apxs \ --disable-cgi \ --with-sqlite \ --enable-sysvshm \ --enable-sysvsem \ --enable-sysvmsg \ --with-zlib=/usr \ --with-libxml-dir \ --with-gd \ --with-jpeg-dir \ --with-png-dir \ --with-zlib-dir \ --with-ttf \ --with-freetype-dir \ --with-mysql=/usr \ --with-pgsql \ --with-expat-dir=/usr \ --with-xsl \ --enable-exif \ --enable-soap \ --with-xmlrpc This problem happens whether the .ini setting for output_buffering is On or Off. I have no special settings in my php.ini. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php header("Location: http://www.php.net/"); ?> This code fails to redirect. <?php header("Location: http://www.php.net/"); print(" "); ?> This code succesfully redirects For now, this can be tested at: http://blog.qoolio.org:82/header_test.php (w/o print) http://blog.qoolio.org:82/header_test2.php (w/print) Expected result: ---------------- Successful HTTP redirect via Location header. Actual result: -------------- Failure to redirect. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27558&edit=1
