PHP 4.0 Bug #5942 Updated: PHP4 either does not parse html/htm files or breaks autorization

ID: 5942 User Update by: byg@fis.ru Old-Status: Closed Status: Feedback Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Description: PHP4 either does not parse html/htm files or breaks autorization > I am having problems parsing this bug report. Have you registered .html as a PHP mime type? Yep. As I already told, I had tried all available combination of AddType/AddHandler/mime.types and I had no luck. I'd notice that there's proven working httpd.conf, which is working fine with 3.0.16. (AFAIK the only difference between configs for PHP3 and PHP4 modules is application/x-httpd-php3->application/x-httpd-php conversion) I should emphase that the behaviour depends on location of httpd.conf and Document_Root. It either doesn't parse htm/html files or has problems with authorization. > And if you are doing Apache-level HTTP authorization, this is done well before PHP gets > involved in the request process, so I don't understand that part of your bug report either. > Please try to explain yourself better and re-submit with a single problem per bug report. > I consider that there's a PHP4 issue because: 1) with PHP3 all works fine 2) without PHP all works fine 3) PHP4 is able to break Apache output headers (due to its ability to change Content-Type) 4) Apache level authorization seems to be work as required since it supplies the right Error page at first stage (consequently, it has recognized .htaccess content). I consider there's a bug in headers processing, look: =============================== telnet www.fis.ru 8080 Trying 212.20.24.193... Connected to relay.fis.nsk.su.

As a result, users see "Access denied" without prompting by their browsers to give credentials though the browsers suppose that's OK. Bad. I guess the problem maybe not in PHP4 itself but in the way how it makes calls to libraries. Does it possible to give me a hint where could be cause?
