By using the following script, the PHP 4.0.1 scripting engine in CGI-Version under Windows 98 crashes:

<?php
echo mktime(1,0,0,1,1,1970,1);
?>

The same script works properly with PHP 3.0.15 in CGI-Version under Win32.

Seemingly the seventh optional parameter is_dst is the problem: Without this parameter the scripting engine does
not crash.

My System is Windows 98 (first version) and the precompiled CGI-Version of PHP 4.0.1

Best Regards,
Martin

failed to reproduce. Please test latest version and report if it still happens.

I tried the binary-version of PHP 4.0.1pl2 from http://www.php.net and got the same result.

Any hints?

checked again in NT with latest CVS - doesn't crash both in release & debug mode. Could someone provide a backtrace?

This works fine for me now. Please retest with latest win32 binaries from php4win.de or the 4.0.5 binaries and give feedback.

I tested with the latest binary from www.php4win.de
and with the RC6 binary from ftp.phpuk.org.

Both crash when doing the following:

D:\php\php-4.0.5RC6-win32>php
<?php
  echo mktime(1,0,0,1,1,1970,1);
?>
^Z

D:\php\php-4.0.5RC6-win32>

(on Windows 2000 RC2)

This is fixed:

D:\cvs\php4\Debug_TS>php -v
4.0.7-dev

D:\cvs\php4\Debug_TS>php
<?php
  echo mktime(1,0,0,1,1,1970,1);
?>
^Z
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.0.7-dev

Please makesure your using the correct php binary by running php -v. But its totally unreproducable which kinda implies that you have a php binary in your path and are using that rather than the php binary you think you are using.
