ID: 9031 User Update by: aboldt@boldtconsult.com Status: Closed Bug Type: Output Control Operating system: Linux 2.2.18 PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 Description: ob_gzhandler memory leak and Headers already sent message! Problem has already been solved in php 4.0.5. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-06-14 14:34:19] sniper@php.net Can't reproduce on PHP 4.0.6RC3 http://www.php.net/~andi/php-4.0.6RC3.tar.gz --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-02-20 10:43:39] aboldt@boldtconsult.com The headers already sent message with ob_gzhandler enabled problem is solved. However, the lynx -head problem is still there. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-02-20 06:40:13] thies@php.net both problems are fixed in CVS --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-02-19 23:02:20] andre@php.net similar Bug id #9231 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-02-06 15:33:49] aboldt@boldtconsult.com I've just found out what the problem is, and it's kind of weird: With ob_gzhandler enabled (from php.ini or with ob_start("ob_gzhandler") in the .php) each readfile() makes the "Cannot add header information - headers already sent" error message appear. This doesn't happen with output buffering enabled and no ob_gzhandler, it only happens with ob_gzhandler enabled. Also tried to replace readfile with fpassthru(fopen()) but got the same result. Hope this helps you fix the problem. If you have any questions feel free to ask, I've been experimenting quite a lot. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
