Hi, Attached is a proposed fix for http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=45392 for PHP_5_3. I don't know output buffering part very well, and I'm not completely sure about this fix, so please review it. The patch changes behavior of output buffering a bit. In case of fatal error all output buffers opened by ob_start() with zero (or omitted) chunk_size argument are discarded. The fix brakes two tests: Test session_module_name() function : variation [ext/session/tests/session_module_name_variation3.phpt] Test session_set_save_handler() function : error functionality [ext/session/tests/session_set_save_handler_error3.phpt] We need to make a decision about #45392. 1) Fix it with proposed (or similar) patch 2) Make it bogus because any fix requires output buffering behavior change
Sorry for top-posting. Anyway, reading the patch made me think that maybe in the user/recoverable cases the output buffer should not be discarded like this..? And IMO, it's a bug, bugs should be fixed even if it means changing the behaviour in an _edge_ case. How do those session tests fail..? They expect output with fatal errors? (actually those tests failed without your patch too, IIRC :) --Jani
