Bug #17047: INFORMIXSERVER not being read

From: pedietz@west.com Operating system: aix 4.3.3 PHP version: 4.2.0 PHP Bug Type: Informix related Bug description: INFORMIXSERVER not being read The following php script does not work.... <?php // print the value of my INFORMIXSERVER variable echo getenv("INFORMIXSERVER"); $conn_id = ifx_connect ("db@ibm65"); ?> it prints: ibm65 Warning: ifx_connect: E [SQLSTATE=IX 000 SQLCODE=-25560] in test.php on line 14 25560 means that INFORMIXSERVER is not set in the env. Which is crazy because I getenv it and echo it. But the following works: <?php putenv("INFORMIXSERVER=ibm65"); $conn_id = ifx_connect ("db@ibm65"); ?> So it seems that the environment variable INFORMIXSERVER is not being read correctly. Besides having INFORMIXSERVER set in my env, I also have set the /usr/local/lib/php.ini ifx.default_host=ibm65. Yet neither work. I have to putenv() the value explicitly. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=17047&edit=1 -- Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17047&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17047&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17047&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17047&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17047&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17047&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17047&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17047&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17047&r=globals
