Bug #17602: pow function no longer works

From: jn534@hotmail.com Operating system: Linux PHP version: 4.2.1 PHP Bug Type: Math related Bug description: pow function no longer works When trying to use the pow function with any numerical values one gets the message: Warning: Invalid argument(s) passed to pow(). Moreover, you don't get an answer back from the function. This started happening only when we upgraded to PHP 4.2.1. We have substituted exp(log(a)*b) for pow(a, b) in all our production code rather than go back to previous releases of PHP. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=17602&edit=1 -- Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17602&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17602&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17602&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17602&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17602&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17602&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17602&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17602&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17602&r=globals
