Re: PHP 4.0 Bug #8725 Updated: Fun with putenv

I was able (I think) to track the problem to my system's /bin/sh. Replacing real /bin/sh with bash makes the problem go away. I'm not sure however that making such change permanent is good for the overall health of my system. Could php be coerced to use bash instead of sh (assuming it uses sh) for putenv calls? -mk On Mon, Jan 15 (11:04pm), Bug Database wrote: > ID: 8725 > Updated by: sniper > Reported By: mikhail@whasup.com > Old-Status: Open > Status: Feedback > Bug Type: Apache related > Assigned To: > Comments: > > I tried your script in my system (Linux) and with the latest CVS of PHP 4 > and it works just fine.
