Bug #76577 [NEW]: outdated documentation concerning track_errors

From: mbiebl at messageconcept dot com Operating system: Windows Server 2016 PHP version: 7.2.7 Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Bug Bug description:outdated documentation concerning track_errors Description: ------------ In PHP 7.2, "track_errors = On" has been deprecated which means it is recommended to no longer use this feature. Looking at the php.ini-production file that is shipped inside the source tarball, it says: ; track_errors ; Default Value: Off ; Development Value: On ; Production Value: Off Here it says that the value for development mode is On. This is clearly wrong, because looking at php.ini-development there is ; Store the last error/warning message in $php_errormsg (boolean). ; This directive is DEPRECATED. ; Default Value: Off ; Development Value: Off ; Production Value: Off ; http://php.net/track-errors ;track_errors = Off So even in development mode, the value is Off. Either the section in "Quick Reference" should be updated or preferrably removed (I don't see a good reason mentioning a deprecated config option there). I also miss a note at http://php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.track-errors that this configuration option has been deprecated. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=76577&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=76577&r=mysqlcfg
