ID: 52260 Updated by: paj...@php.net Reported by: a_jelly_doughnut at phpbb dot com Summary: Windows implementation of dns_get_record fails with non-existing domain Status: Assigned Type: Bug Package: Network related Operating System: Windows (All) PHP Version: 5.3.2 Assigned To: pajoye Block user comment: N New Comment: The not found error has been fixed in svn (5.3/trunk). However I keep this issue open and assigned to me as I think the DNS function should not be as noisy as they are now (what's the point of raising a warning if all one wants is to actually check a domain...).

For reference, all error codes which can be returned by DNSQuery_A are listed by Microsoft: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms681391 * I cannot say for sure if reports like http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=50903 are valid. I do know from reading the PHP source that there are three separate *NIX implementations of php_dns_search(), but Andreas has not investigated which one his Ubuntu server is using. It seems likely that this inconsistency affects NIX implementations as well.
