Bug #9804 Updated: Incorrect File type check

ID: 9804 Updated by: jmoore Reported By: the_man01@hotmail.com Old-Status: Feedback Status: Closed Bug Type: GD related PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 Assigned To: Comments: This is caused by gd not returhning an imagepointer and from the sounds of it is a bug in GD and not PHP, the error message is slightly misleading although this is the most likley cause. If the same script is working with php created jpegs etc then your images are either being corrupted or its a bug in GD. It does not look like a bug in PHP. - James Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-03-17 13:17:38] sniper@php.net Please add a shortest possible script into this bug report which can be used to reproduce this problem. --Jani --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-03-17 05:28:56] the_man01@hotmail.com in my original post, I made refernce to WBMP files. that should have been GIF files, not WBMP. So the problem im having is with GIF, and JPEG files. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-03-17 04:22:24] the_man01@hotmail.com I'm attempting to create a script that accepts bmp and jpg files uploaded by a user and converts them into jpg or bmp files as requested by the user, using the ImageCreateFromWBMP, and ImageJPEG functions. But, each time I upload a BMP or JPEG image, I get the message: "Warning: imagecreatefromwbmp: 'image.bmp' is not a valid WBMP file in /script/location/here.php on line#" These BMP and jpeg images are created in photoshop 5.5, and windows paint program on win 2000, and 98 platforms and according to thos programs, the file-types are valid. But, if I use the imagecreate function to generate a jpeg image (from a string of text), save, and upload that jpeg file to my server, then run the same script on it to convert it to another file format, no error/warning messages are generated.... So apparantly, php can work on images generated by a php script, but no others. What makes it even more odd, is that upon uploading an image (one made in photoshop or paint) using my script, I have it setup such that a confirmation screen is generated where the users are provided with the size and format/type of the uploaded file, and theyre always reported as being: image/jpg or image/bmp yet they are flagged as invalid when another php script attempts to manipulate them. is the problem on my end, am I doing something wrong? Is it that php can't handle images created by photoshop and paint? or is that the criteria used to validate the image format in php is flawed? Thanx. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION! Do NOT reply to this email! To reply, use the web interface found at http://bugs.php.net/?id=9804&edit=2
