#37908 [Opn->Fbk]: putenv() variables not reset at the end of the script

ID: 37908 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: php at raj dot homelinux dot com -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Apache2 related Operating System: Linux 2.6 PHP Version: 4.4.2 New Comment: What kind of MPM are you using? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-06-25 12:56:24] php at raj dot homelinux dot com Description: ------------ putenv() claims that the env variables are reset to their original values when the script exits. HOwever, this doesn't seem to be happening - as a result, if the env var TZ is set from a php script, it affects apache2 logs, changing the timestamp for all subsequent gets served by the process that ran this php script which set TZ. Reproduce code: --------------- set $timezone different from server timezone and run: putenv("TZ=".$timeZone); -- then do a few more gets and check the apache logs, you will see something like: xx.xx.xx.xx - - [19/Jun/2006:23:05:18 -0400] "GET ..." xx.xx.xx.xx - - [19/Jun/2006:23:05:18 -0400] "GET ..." xx.xx.xx.xx - - [20/Jun/2006:13:05:11 +1000] "GET ..." (see how the timestamp in the apache log flipped from -0400 to +1000.. thats the problem) Expected result: ---------------- Timestamps should remain consistent Actual result: -------------- Timestamps are not consistent (see example above) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37908&edit=1
