Thank you for your bug report. Does this problem occur with all parse problems or just this one? Do you have error reporting enabled? Is there something in your PHP error log? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-09-29 16:34:09] patrickdk at patrickdk dot com Description: ------------ the global modifier causes http 500 errors but doesn't produce any syntax errors or other messages when used incorrectly. It's behavure isn't documented and is described next to static that works differently. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php global $test=true; Expected result: ---------------- It should give a syntax error, and manual should be updates to explain assigning a value on the global declaration isn't valid, unlike with static. Actual result: -------------- php-cgi test.php Status: 500 Internal Server Error X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.11 Content-type: text/html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=49713&edit=1
