Description:
------------
I have the following statements in my php.ini :
mbstring.language=Neutral
mbstring.encoding_translation=On
mbstring.internal_encoding=UTF-8
mbstring.http_input=UTF-8
mbstring.http_output=pass
mbstring.detect_order=auto
mbstring.func_overload=6
mbstring.script_encoding=UTF-8

When I try to run go-pear.bat I get the error:

"Warning: gzinflate(): data error in C:\Program Files\PHP5\PEAR\go-pear.phar on line 404

Notice: Undefined variable: size in C:\Program Files\PHP5\PEAR\go-pear.phar on l
ine 407

Fatal error: Not valid gz file (size error  != 0) in C:\Program Files\PHP5\PEAR\go-pear.phar on line 408".

If I remove those php.ini lines everything works ok.

Thanks.

If you change mbstring.func_overload=6 to mbstring.func_overload=0, does the problem go away?
 [2005-11-26 21:02 UTC] mauroi at digbang dot com
Yes. It works if I disable overloading.
When I'm working with lobs (binary data in general) under this configuration I use mb_strlen($str, 'ASCII') instead of strlen($str). Otherwise, the variable would be treated as string and any unicode escape sequence would generate an error.
Maybe a function called something like 'bytecount' could help to avoid this situation.

Thanks.

Another workaround is to add a '-n' to the cli invocation inside of go-pear.bat
That way no php.ini is used.

I think I'll opt for door #3 which is to insert:

if (function_exists('mb_internal_encoding')) {
mb_internal_encoding('ASCII');
}

at the top of the .phar

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5-win32-latest.zip

when you do this, please grab go-pear.phar directly from http://pear.php.net/go-pear.phar - and please do this no sooner than 1 hour after this message, as pear.php.net is synced once per hour with cvs
