-Summary: Invalid magic file
Reported By: Bjorn dot Wiberg at its dot uu dot se
Status: Open
Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function
Operating System: IBM AIX 5.2.0.0 ML4
PHP Version: 5.0.2
New Comment:
It seems that the real error behind this is that the PHP mime_magic
extension does NOT obey "php_admin_value mime_magic.magicfile" or
"php_value mime_magic.magicfile" directives in httpd.conf, although the
documentation states that mime_magic.magicfile should be settable from
PHP_INI_SYSTEM, i.e., from php.ini and httpd.conf.
Apache 2 httpd.conf:
php_admin_value mime_magic.magicfile "/apache/etc/magic"
Test script:
<?php echo mime_content_type('a'); ?>
Apache 2 error log:
[client 130.238.x.x] PHP Fatal error: mime_content_type(): mime_magic
could not be initialized, magic file is not avaliable in
/apache/htdocs/test/filtyp.php on line 1
Observe the empty file name in the log output! (I did not supply a name
along with --with-mime-magic during configuration, and no magic file is
available in what mime_magic considers "standard" locations.)
Adding the following to php.ini correctly configures mime_magic (using
the Apache 2.0.52-supplied magic file):
[mime_magic]
mime_magic.magicfile = "/etc/apache/magic"
Browser output ('a' is a text file):
text/plain
Furthermore, phpinfo() will SHOW any httpd.conf setting of
mime_magic.magicfile that you make, but still not actually USE anything
but what you specified in php.ini!
Best regards,
Björn

Description:
------------
Hi!
I have tried using both the /apache/etc/magic file from Apache 2.0.52
and the extras/magic.mime file (from the PHP 5.0.2 for Windows zip
archive), but phpinfo() always tells me:
mime_magic
mime_magic support invalid magic file, disabled
Directive Local Value Master Value
mime_magic.debug On Off
mime_magic.magicfile /apache/etc/magic no value
I configured PHP with "--with-mime-magic" but without "--enable-debug",
and have set the following in my httpd.conf:
php_admin_flag display_errors off
php_admin_flag display_startup_errors on
php_admin_flag mime_magic.debug on
php_admin_value mime_magic.magicfile "/apache/etc/magic"
PHP mentions nothing about the erroneous magic file in the Apache error
log, however.
I would appreciate if someone could provide me with a known working
magic.mime file to try.
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Björn
Reproduce code:
---------------
Start Apache, run a PHP script containing phpinfo(), and watch the
output.
Expected result:
----------------
That mime_magic was enabled, and that there was nothing wrong with the
magic file.
Actual result:
--------------
The mime_magic extension states that the magic file is invalid, but
doesn't give any more information.
