ID: 61148 User updated by: khaos337 at gmail dot com Reported by: khaos337 at gmail dot com Summary: auto_prepend_file and auto_append_file seemingly load on favicon request Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: *General Issues Operating System: FreeBSD7.3 (amd64) PHP Version: 5.3.10 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: redirect is done through htaccess ErrorDocument 404 /error404/ Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-02-20 20:44:18] ras...@php.net Because that wan't the requested uri? Depends on how you are doing the 404 redirect, I guess. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-02-20 20:39:08] khaos337 at gmail dot com Understood, just one more quick question though. If the 404 page is the one causing the file to fire again, which would make sense because it is a php page, why wouldn't the $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] kick back the 404 page '/error404.php/' instead of '/favicon.ico/'? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-02-20 20:34:36] ras...@php.net A favicon request is a request like any other. If the favicon.ico file doesn't exist the request will trigger a 404 and your 404 handler will be run. The same will happen if your main request tries to load images/css/js that don't exist, so you either need to make sure your main requests never generate a 404 or you need to make your 404 handler/prepend script smarter. You can have it check the requested URI and skip doing whatever it is you don't want it doing multiple times per page load. This isn't something we can fix at the PHP level. PHP is doing what you are asking it to do here. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-02-20 20:30:49] khaos337 at gmail dot com I do have a 404 handler pointed at a .php script but I didn't even think of that because I didn't think it had anything to do with a favicon. As for how the web server is configure I'm not sure because I'm on a managed server so I don't have that access. I will test it with out the 404 redirect and get back to you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-02-20 20:26:09] ras...@php.net Wouldn't this only happen if you have your web server configured to send favicon.ico request through PHP? Or, perhaps if you have a 404 handler pointed at a PHP script? In a normally configured web server I don't see this happening. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
