From: tac at smokescreen dot org Operating system: ALL PHP version: 5.1.2 PHP Bug Type: Compile Failure Bug description: Fatal errors should return a 500, not 200
Description: ------------ Fatal errors, including compile errors, return a status code 200, rather than a 500 (Server Error), which should be the default. It would make it easier to see problem pages in our logs if the pages returned a 500, since indeed there is a server error. I realize that in some cases the text has already been sent, but if buffering is on, then the behavior should be to return a 500. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $x = new bad_object(); ?> Load the page, look at the header. It's a 200, should be a 500. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=36927&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=trysnapshot51 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36927&r=mysqlcfg
