From: weierophinney Operating system: N/A PHP version: 5.4.15 Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:Discussion of magic file selection is incorrect. Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.finfo-open#refsect1- function.finfo-open-parameters --- Please see https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64793 for more details. Essentially, the following statements are incorrect: "Name of a magic database file, usually something like /path/to/magic.mime. If not specified, the MAGIC environment variable is used. If this variable is not set either, /usr/share/misc/magic is used by default. A .mime and/or .mgc suffix is added if needed. Passing NULL or an empty string will be equivalent to the default value." If null or an empty string is passed, PHP uses its bundled magic.mime database. Additionally, this is _recommended_, as PHP may or may not be able to properly parse other magic.mime databases. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64799&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64799&r=mysqlcfg
