As stated above, "if you unpack a large unsigned long and it is of the same size as PHP internally stored values the result will be a negative number even though unsigned unpacking was specified." To restore the original unsigned value, you could do this : if ($unpackedVal <0) { $unpackedVal += 4294967296; } Hope this helps !
