ID: 60027 User updated by: richard at organicdata dot co dot za Reported by: richard at organicdata dot co dot za Summary: DOMDocument::schemaValidate Status: Bogus Type: Bug Package: DOM XML related Operating System: Centos 5.5 PHP Version: 5.3.8 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Hello, thank you for your feedback. I have verified the xmllint issue "segmentation fault" and opened https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661838 I will not update this again but regardless of where the bug lies I would like to note that my concern with this PHP team engagement has been as follows: 1. I was asked by the PHP team to upload an XML file - no file upload mechanism is provided that I can find and the web page does not seem to handle the pasting of the xml file, even if htmlencoded 2. I spent a lot of time trying to achieve the above and asked the PHP team a number of times for help - I received nothing of value from the team My observation is as follows (this is not intended as criticism but constructively): We are keen followers of PHP and have invested heavily in adoption, however we run a business and our business needs to survive just like any other. We have wasted a lot of time with 0 progress on this bug and we simply can't afford it as a business. In my opinion, the PHP team could significantly improve bug handling abilities by providing a simple file upload utility (as is provided by the gnome site). Also, while I understand that this is not a PHP bug, ultimately it does not matter, the problem ultimately affects PHP users (who really don't care about what underpins PHP) - and when it is of such global significance ie. the inability to validate OOXML document structure, I think the PHP team should be lending their weight to ensuring that the problem is understood and if indeed a bug is fixed as fast as possible by the provider - ie. in this case libxml developer/s. thanks Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-10-15 12:04:48] rricha...@php.net Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. issue in libxml not PHP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-10-14 09:16:23] richard at organicdata dot co dot za I'm becoming very concerned at the apparent lack of positive interest in this issue from the PHP team. Even the risk of inability to validate one of the world's most used document formats should in my opinion be high on PHPs agenda - and if it indeed is a problem under xmllint then the PHP team should be pushing xmllint to sort it out - as ultimately it is PHP that benefits from the functionality. Just to give you some sense in our case - this functionality is critical and not being able to use it or get it fixed may be enough to stop our use of PHP - which I would be really sad to see happen as it is a great language in many regards. I am more than willing to help in any way I can with samples, testing and so on however I am unable to fix this on my own. I do need someone from the team to engage constructively. If someone could please engage I would really appreciate it. thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-10-13 06:49:56] richard at organicdata dot co dot za Hello I'm afraid the below isn't clear for me. Please can we keep this simple. All I need is either: 1. to be told how to upload the tiny XML file that has been requested by "cataphract at php.net"; or 2. for Felipe to confirm that he has received the XML file and for him to provide it to the appropriate person; as I have sent it to his email address "felipe at php.net" could someone please help here so this can move forward and hopefully be resolved as soon as possible. thank you ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-10-11 22:22:17] fel...@php.net The bug tracker just allows the following mime-types: application/x-txt, text/plain, text/x-diff, text/x-patch, text/x-c++, text/x-c, text/x-m4 and cannot be larger than 100k. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-10-11 18:54:42] richard at organicdata dot co dot za hi i'm out of ideas - I htmlencoded the example xml file and submitted and I get this message ERROR: Please do not SPAM our bug system. please can someone help me with ideas as to how to submit the xml file requested thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
