James Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-09-12 03:48:39] jason@trackeronline.com In PHP 4.0, it appears that the PHP_PUT_FILENAME variable is gone. I've grepped the entire source tree (4.0.1pl2 which I am running live, and the CVS as of Sept 08, 2000) and it is nowhere to be found. Nor is there any documentation that I could find to specify what could replace it. I've examined the complete list of variables available to my script which recieves my PUT method, and none of the variables seem to contain the usual temporary filename that PHP generates on a PUT. This seems to be the same problem as bug id # 4763, HOWEVER, that bug is marked as closed with no solution. I am not trying to send a PUT method (I could use cURL in that case), but to recieve a PUT method. Also, it is NOT an option to change the PUT method to a POST, as the PUT is imbedded in a windows executable with about 10,000 copies out there. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Full Bug description available at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=6672
