PHP 4.0 Bug #8940 Updated: File uploads stopped withing in 4.0.4pl1

ID: 8940 User Update by: glen@broadpool.com Status: Open Bug Type: Filesystem function related Description: File uploads stopped withing in 4.0.4pl1 Further testing reveals that the upload is working properly, but the file 'type' variable is not set, and PHP is not treating it as an image file. Image processing utilities state that the file is corrupt after uploading, even though it remains the exact same size as the original. I suspect that PHP is doing something to the file.

With a simple script that does nothing except upload the file and move it, it works: the file is there. However, the "type" variable has no value! No matter what type of file I upload, the $HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['type'] value is an empty string. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-01-26 11:21:21] glen@broadpool.com I've been using 4.0.3 for a couple of weeks now. Last night I ran the Redhat Update agent and installed 4.0.4pl1. Everything works fine except for file uploads. The upload is recorded as successful, everything SEEMS to work fine, but there is no file in /tmp, and the variable $HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['type'] is undefined. Apache 1.3.14 reports no problems, and returns a 200 return code. I've tried working with php.ini; I can turn file uploads off, and that works, then when I turn it back on again, it has the same problem. I'm pretty sure it's something in 4.0.4pl1 because nothing else on my system has changed since the upgrade last night. Here's some of my code: $file_type = $HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['type']; if (substr($file_type,-4,4) != 'jpeg') { die( "Files of type '" . $file_type . "' are not recognized.<br>" . "Only JPEG images are currently supported." ); } $path_for_file = 'gallery/' . $user_id . '/' . $photo_id . '.jpg'; if (!is_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'])) die( "File is not uploaded." ); move_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $path_for_file); ...but I really don't think the problem is in the code. Here's some output from my Apache log file: 192.168.1.2 - - [26/Jan/2001:08:13:04 -0800] "POST /upload.php HTTP/1.1" 200 51 "http://<mysite>/upload.php" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Mac_PowerPC) " No errors are reported any where. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Full Bug description available at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=8940
