#33285 [NEW]: dbase functions return garabe on certain file

From: andrewz at springsrescuemission dot org Operating system: Linux 2.4.30 (Trustix 2.2) PHP version: 5.0.4 PHP Bug Type: dBase related Bug description: dbase functions return garabe on certain file Description: ------------ Using PHP's dbase system cannot understand some columns and yields garbage on a certain .dbf file (http://65.108.181.103/zip.dbf). The .dbf was tested successfully with several other programs (OpenOffice.org 1.1.4 and Shapefile Library C). According to file, .dbf is dbase 3 format: $ file zip.dbf zip.dbf: DBase 3 data file (586 records) To enable dbase support, I used the standard Trustix 2.2 source RPM and included "--enable-dbase". On a different system with PHP 4.3.10 and Linux 2.4.27 (Redhat 7.3), I verified the problem with dbase_get_record_with_names(). (The function dbase_get_header_info() was not available on this platform.) Reproduce code: --------------- $db = dbase_open("zip.dbf",0); print_r(dbase_get_header_info($db)); if ($db) { $record_numbers = dbase_numrecords($db); for ($i = 1; $i <= $record_numbers; $i++) { $row = dbase_get_record_with_names($db, $i); print_r($row); } } Expected result: ---------------- The dbase_header_info() does not understand some columns and includes garbage (e.g. length field). Then the dbase_get_record_with_names() has incorrect data. Here is output of Shapefile Library C's dbfdump -h on the same zip.dbf. This output is good.
