Bug #10229 Updated: buffer error in fread

ID: 10229 User Update by: apeeters@lashout.net Old-Status: Closed Status: Open Bug Type: Filesystem function related Operating system: linux 2.2.14C11 PHP Version: 4.0.3pl1 4.0.4pl1 4.0.5 4.0.6 Description: buffer error in fread This error still exists, not de phpcode part, but the buffering errors, try this several times: ---start--- $fp = fopen("http://www.planetinternet.be/nl/vandaag/", "r"); $content = fread($fp, 100000); fclose($fp); $fp = fopen("http://www.google.com/", "r"); $content = fread($fp, 100000); mail("me@host", "topic", $content); ---stop--- This is an error in the buffer handling routines and should be eliminated. It seems to occur at _every_ request with php4.0.6 !

If not reopen. -Chris --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-04-08 05:04:10] apeeters@lashout.net I have only seen php code once, and I was't able to reproduce it. I suppose it was a case where php code was stored in a variable (for online editing or something). This is only a guess, as it's not my code that I see, but code from someone else on the same server. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-04-07 20:51:58] cnewbill@php.net I ran it through a couple hundred times and absolutely no PHP code whatsoever. The only problem I see here is $content is never cleaned up properly and contains BOTH of the fread()s jumbled. Which is very strange. $fp = fopen("http://www.newsplanet.be/", "r"); while (!feof($fp)) $content .= fread($fp, 4000); fclose($fp); You would be better off using the above as it works properly. Whomever is handling the fopen-wrappers should probably look at this. -Chris --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-04-07 20:17:03] apeeters@lashout.net I've been testing a bit more and have a clear reproducible codesnippet, it yields the same results in php 4.0.4p1, so I changed the PHP version for this bugreport. ---start--- $fp = fopen("http://www.newsplanet.be/", "r"); $content = fread($fp, 100000); fclose($fp); $fp = fopen("http://www.google.com/", "r"); $content = fread($fp, 100000); mail("me@host", "topic", $content); ---stop--- In this mail, I see the sourcecode from google.com followed by the rest of the code from newsplanet.be. This does occur in about 1/3 of the mails I try, although I'm unable to see why this isn't always the case. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-04-07 19:46:47] cnewbill@php.net Can't reproduce with CVS version. Try upgrading to the newest release 4.04pl1 or grab a CVS snapshot from http://snaps.php.net/ What URL is it that is doing this? Or is it every URL? -Chris --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
