Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-29 15:27:03] iliaa@php.net Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. This is likely to be a bug in the cURL library. The PHP interface to the library had no changes that would cause this bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-26 20:44:31] dac514 at sympatico dot ca Description: ------------ The following code used to work until i upgraded to 4.3.6 Reproduce code: --------------- // Get RSS feed $c = curl_init('http://www.vegguide.org/rss/feed.rss?all=1&omit_hours=1'); curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_ENCODING, 'gzip'); curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, $cookie_jar); // *** This next line is the problem! *** $data = curl_exec($c); curl_close($c); Expected result: ---------------- $data should be text. xml_parse($xml, $data) should be able to handle it. Actual result: -------------- $data is compressed gzip binaray data. I can't use it in this format. What changed? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=28168&edit=1
