Description:
------------
Hello,

First the 'error' is also in 4.3.9rc1 with 4.3.6 everything is fine.

If I am going to upload a file using php which is not txt encoded the file size of the transfered file is more then doubble and the file stored on the server is corrupted.

Reproduce code:
---------------
1. HTML Part:

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="upload.php" method="post"> 
<input type="file" name="file"><br> 
<input type="submit" value="upload"> 
</form>

2. PHP Part:

$tempname = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];
$name = $_FILES['file']['name']; 
$type = $_FILES['file']['type'];
$size = $_FILES['file']['size'];
...
print_r($_FILES);
echo $size;
   copy("$tempname", "/upload/$name");
    
...


Expected result:
----------------
Output useing 4.3.6

Array ( [file] => Array ( [name] => daemon347.exe [type] => application/octet-stream [tmp_name] => /uploadkds/phpJGle3P [error] => 0 [size] => 504320 ) ) Array ( ) 

504320



504320 = filesize of desination file on the server = original file size


Actual result:
--------------
Output 4.3.9rc1 and 4.3.9rc3


Array ( [file] => Array ( [name] => daemon347.exe [type] => application/octet-stream [tmp_name] => /uploadkds/phplvCHls [error] => 0 [size] => 1004032 ) ) Array ( ) 

1004032 



1004032 = filesize of desination file on the server =! original size

I just updated one of my servers to PHP_4_3 HEAD and large image file uploads are working fine both single and multiple at a time.

Are we really talking about an S390 here?

Hi,

Yes I have some linux partitions on our IBM mainframe with php... We are running Suse Linux Enterprice Server 8.0 on 31 bit zSeries s390 / zOS

I send a make test with 4.3.9rc3 yesterday to: php-qa@lists.php.net maybee it helps.

I think I will try the HEAD version this evening and than I will report...

Hi,

I did the test with the: PHP Version 4.3.9RC4-dev / STABLE-200409161030


Same problem:

Array ( [file] => Array ( [name] => daemon347.exe [type] => application/octet-stream [tmp_name] => /uploadkds/phpg9gWFe [error] => 0 [size] => 1004032 ) ) Array ( ) 

1004032

Have you tried PHP 4.3.8 ? Or 4.3.7 ? (would help us to know when this bug appeared first time)

Hi,

I' m really sorry... but I was wrong!
I did some test the last days with different php versions (4.3.6 - 4.3.9). I found out that the problem is not the php release. The problem is using Apache 2.0.50 together with any (4.3.6 - 4.3.9) PHP release. Using Apache/2.0.46 every version of PHP works fine...

Outout with 4.3.9:
Array ( [file] => Array ( [name] => Test.exe [type] => application/octet-stream [tmp_name] => /uploadkds/phpAZU372 [error] => 0 [size] => 1999592 ) ) Array ( ) 

1999592 = original file size :))

But now I did not know is the problem "in" apache or in php running together with apache 2.0.50...

Is there a possibility to find this out so that I have to post the "bug" to apache group?


Thanks,
Marcus

Joe, do you have any idea about this? I'd say it's just an Apache problem...

Screwups in POST body handling can happen if you use the apache2filter SAPI and you have it configured badly.  Things to try:

1) switch to apache2handler

2) remove any "SetInputFilter PHP" statements from your apache configuration, if you also have "AddType application/x-httpd-php .php".  The AddType is sufficient for the apache2filter to work correctly.  If you have both, it screws up.

2.0.51 + 4.3.9 (apache2handler) work fine on an s390x box here. (running RHEL not SLES)
