Bug #14964 Updated: safe mode & basic authentication

ID: 14964 Comment by: gabriel@modwest.com Old Reported By: ceco@noxis.net Reported By: gabriel@modwest.com Status: Open Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function Operating System: linux PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment: We're having exactly the same problem. PHP 4.1.1, apache 1.3.22 on Linux (kernel 2.4.14) I don't want to revert to 4.0.6, so I put a big #if 0 around the code in sapi_add_header_ex() in SAPI.c, in the "WWW-Authenticate" case, where it does special stuff if safe mode is on. It's a band-aid, but it works (for now) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-10 12:54:14] benter@yippi-yeah.com Same error: * SuSE 7.3, Apache/1.3.20 (Linux/SuSE), SuSE kernel 2.4.10-4GB * installed php4.1.1 ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs \ --with-gd \ --with-freetype-dir=/usr/include/freetype2 \ --with-zlib \ --disable-debug \ --enable-safe-mode \ --with-exec-dir \ --enable-calendar \ --enable-magic-quotes \ --with-mysql=/usr \ --enable-ftp \ --enable-memory-limit \ --enable-track-vars \ --with-pdflib \ --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib \ --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/lib \ --with-png-dir=/usr/lib * copied php.ini-recommended to /usr/local/lib/php.ini * activated safe_mode in php.ini * when using header("WWW-Authenticate: ... process dies * error_log: [notice] child pid 14153 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) * with "safe_mode = off" getting user/pass dialog * will post more info when needed ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-10 08:24:12] ceco@noxis.net the following problem, a script works flawlessly without safe mode, but when safe mode enabled, the row header("WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm=\"anything\""); causes very strange error: apache doesn't return anything (no headers, no content) - size 0 (i checked it even through telnet). when i comment this line, just the HTML message for the incorrect user or password is displayed (which should be displayed when cancel is hit by the user) the code below is header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized"); echo 'incorrect user or password'; die(); I'm not 100% percent sure, but I think it is not error of configuring php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=14964&edit=1
