Package: php5-cli Version: 5.2.0-7 Severity: important Hi,
in some cases it seems that the CLI php doesn't flush its output when the script exits and output is not connected to a terminal (thus not line buffered). Unfortunately, until now I haven't been able to find a small script that reproduces the problem. The case I stumbled upon happens with the testsuite of the symfony php framework. To reproduce it, please follow these steps: 1. check out symfony from symfony svn: % svn co http://svn.symfony-project.com/trunk symfony 2. change into the freshly checked out symfony directory and run % php5 ./test/functional/crudTest.php | tee /dev/null 3. to see how the correct output should be (modulo some colorization), remove the "| tee /dev/null" from the previous command If the testsuite is modified to call flush() on exit, the output isn't truncated anymore. I'm pretty sure that symfony itself doesn't disable output flushing itself (no output buffering etc. involved, plus it works with php 5.1.6).
