Bug #11670: Apache multipart POST weirdness

From: fcaprioli@inwind.it Operating system: Linux 2.2 PHP version: 4.0.6 PHP Bug Type: Apache related Bug description: Apache multipart POST weirdness Using MSIE 4.01, or 5.5SP1 (didn't try other versions) as a client to perform a multipart/mixed text/file upload with multiple files, there are some serious problem under php 4.06 + apache 1.3.20, statically builded on a linux glibc 2.1.3/egcs 1.1.2. In a "--enable-inline-optimization" build, apache segfaults regardless of configuration option (tried almost any mix of these, with or without magic quotes, --enable-mbstr-enc-trans etc) Instead, in build ./configure' '--with-mysql=/usr/local/' '--with-gd' '--with-png-dir=/usr' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-curl' '--with-zlib' '--with-apache=../apache_1.3.20' it almost works, as upload works normally, but php fails to set in $HTTP_POST_VARS any variable that comes inside the form after the file selector. so <form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="hidden" name="var1" value="1"> <input type="hidden" name="var2" value="2"> <input type="file" name="file[]"> <input type="file" name="file[]"> <input type="hidden" name="var3" value="3"> <input type="submit" name="var4" value="4"> </form> would fail to set $HTTP_POST_VARS["var3"] and $HTTP_POST_VARS["var4"] -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=11670&edit=1
