Bug #15646 Updated: the flush() does not flush the output buffer

ID: 15646 Updated by: nohn@php.net Reported By: kewl@compfort.pl Status: Analyzed Bug Type: Output Control Operating System: Windows 2000 SP2 PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment: well..another thing... I have the same problem... but it's the same server (apache 1.3.23, php 4.1.1 on linux). the problem occurs in ms ie, but not in nn4 or or mozilla. so maybe it's a browser issue Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-24 05:55:53] yohgaki@php.net flush feature is needed to be fixed ;) If you really need to flush, do not use output buffering. (Without output buffering, PHP always outputs immediately when output is issued) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-21 04:55:32] kewl@compfort.pl another $0.02: i compiled PHP succesfully using cygwin environment and it works just fine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-20 12:01:15] kewl@compfort.pl BTW i found one bug report regarding similar problem, but the answer blamed the webserver buffering the output. its not the case in this situation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-20 11:45:00] kewl@compfort.pl here is the code i ran with command-line version of php: <? $asd=0; do { printf("asd: %d\n",$asd); flush(); sleep(1); $asd++;}while ($asd<5); ?> if it is executed on linux, it works as expected, that is it displays asd every second. on windows though, i only see the whole output after 5 seconds. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15646&edit=1
