ID: 60157 Comment by: dfroe at gmx dot de Reported by: zeusgerde at arcor dot de Summary: OPENSSL_CONF environment variable ignored Status: Open Type: Bug Package: OpenSSL related Operating System: Windows XP and Windows 7 PHP Version: 5.3.8 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I am able to reproduce this bug under FreeBSD, too. So it does not seem to be a Windows specific issue. I am using PHP 5.3.8 compiled via the latest FreeBSD ports tree. The putenv() hint does not work, either. Passing the config value within the config array directly to the openssl function works - but can of course only be a quick and dirty workaround.

System wild? manually in your script? In httpd.conf in a global scope: | SetEnv OPENSSL_CONF D:\sandbox\openssl.cnf You can see that it is set in the actual result: | var_dump(getenv('OPENSSL_CONF')); | // string(42) "D:\sandbox\openssl.cnf" (hint: don't look at the string length, I scrambled the path in this bug report) > putenv("OPENSSL_CONF=whereyouwanit"); No change in the actual result. Even if I do this: | putenv("OPENSSL_CONF=", getenv('OPENSSL_CONF')); It only works if I use the $configargs parameter directly (see my first comment at 2011-10-28 11:48 UTC) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-10-28 12:45:52] paj...@php.net Where do you set it? System wild? manually in your script? try: putenv("OPENSSL_CONF=whereyouwanit"); .. rest of your code.. Only to verify a possible cause. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-10-28 11:50:18] zeusgerde at arcor dot de BTW, this is the work-around var_dump(openssl_pkey_new(array( 'config' => getenv('OPENSSL_CONF'), ))); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-10-28 11:48:36] zeusgerde at arcor dot de Description: ------------ setting OPENSSL_CONF is ignored in openssl* functions despite the documentation lists it as the first location where the configuration file is searched http://de2.php.net/manual/en/openssl.installation.php Test script: --------------- <?php header('Content-Type: text/plain'); echo "Current PHP version: ", phpversion(), "\n"; echo "*** OPENSSL_CONF\n"; var_dump(getenv('OPENSSL_CONF')); echo "\n*** Errors before calling openssl_pkey_new\n"; while (($e = openssl_error_string()) !== false) { var_dump($e); } echo "\n*** Calling openssl_pkey_new\n"; var_dump(openssl_pkey_new()); echo "\n*** Errors after calling openssl_pkey_new\n"; while (($e = openssl_error_string()) !== false) { var_dump($e); } Expected result: ---------------- Current PHP version: 5.3.8 *** OPENSSL_CONF string(42) "D:\sandbox\openssl.cnf" *** Errors before calling openssl_pkey_new *** Calling openssl_pkey_new resource(2) of type (OpenSSL key) *** Errors after calling openssl_pkey_new Actual result: -------------- Current PHP version: 5.3.8 *** OPENSSL_CONF string(42) "D:\sandbox\openssl.cnf" *** Errors before calling openssl_pkey_new *** Calling openssl_pkey_new bool(false) *** Errors after calling openssl_pkey_new string(51) "error:02001003:system library:fopen:No such process" string(53) "error:2006D080:BIO routines:BIO_new_file:no such file" string(63) "error:0E064002:configuration file routines:CONF_load:system lib" string(51) "error:02001003:system library:fopen:No such process" string(53) "error:2006D080:BIO routines:BIO_new_file:no such file" string(63) "error:0E064002:configuration file routines:CONF_load:system lib" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60157&edit=1
