ID: 21760 Comment by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Open Bug Type: Sockets related Operating System: FreeBSD 4.7 PHP Version: 4.3.0 New Comment:
I can repeat this bug. here is an example script that i used: http://force-elite.com/~chip/test/socket_phpreadnormal.phps it is a modification of the basic HTTP client given as an example in the PHP.net documentation. When PHP_NORMAL_READ is used, and certen buffer sizes, it will resuilt in socket_read returning bogus data, commonly all newlines(\n). On both a FreeBSD-4.7-stable(built Fri Nov 29), and FreeBSD-5.0-RC(built Wed Jan 8), both using PHP-4.3.0-cli, with a buffer size of 2048 it would work, with a buffer size of 100, socket_read() would return a stream of \n. On Linux 2.4.18-18.7.x(Redhat Box) using PHP-4.3.0-cli, it would always work, regardless of the buffer size. On Linux 2.4.19-crypto-r7(Gentoo Box) using PHP-4.3.0-cli, it would work with 2048 buffer size, but with 100 it would bail with: Notice: Undefined offset: 0 in /path/socket_phpreadnormal.php on line 51 Warning: socket_read() expects parameter 1 to be resource, null given in /path/socket_phpreadnormal.php on line 51 (I don't have direct access to this box, I didn't want to heavly debug it, it is possibly an error in my script.) On Windows 2000, using PHP-4.3.0-cli, it would always return 0(EOF) from socket_read(). It Bailed with: Warning: socket_read() unable to read from socket [0]: The operation completed successfully. (perhaps a seperate bug :-) ) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-05 09:53:04] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I believe this is caused by a comparison to an uninitialized buffer in php_read (buffer emalloc'd in socket_read).

The server it's reading from sends a large multi-line (lines terminated with "\n") packet (~7500 bytes) in one write() call. After reading through about half of it with the line above, socket_read will start returning bad data about 10% - 20% of the time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21760&edit=1
