<?php
echo('X');
error_log('X', 0);
$daten_verlag[$rubrik['id']]] = $daten_rubrik;
?>

One bracket too much!
This makes PHP issue just 5 Bytes to the browser, regardless of any code following or preceeding this line.
I think it doesn't even execute the code because there doesn't appear anything in the logs, too.

If there is a parse error, the script doesn't execute.

Not a bug > bogus

This just gives a parser error for me (tested with 4.0.6 and current cvs).

Okay, perhaps I should stressen that there is no error mesage whatsoever. In my case, it took me several hours to find this little one. It's very annoying that PHP doesn't issue a syntax error message.

... and your php.ini error_reporting settings are?
 [2002-03-07 06:27 UTC] richter at jakota dot de 
Thank you, you pointed me to the reason for my problem:
In the .htaccess file I found:
    php_value display_errors true
must be:
    php_flag display_errors on

That means: Due to this syntactically wrong statement in the htaccess-file PHP overides the default and sets this flag to "false". I think this is not the desired behaviour,
isn't it?
 [2002-03-07 06:49 UTC] hholzgra@php.net 
"php_value display_errors true" is perfectly valid, 
just that (string)"true" is converted to (int)"true"
which is zero
