Receive the following error with only 15 consecutive characters entered.

Warning: gzinflate: buffer error in /usr/local/apache/elca_rmg/class.FTemplateExt.php on line 153

What follows is the code updating the SQL files:

$gzsize = strlen($description) + 4;  // added 4 more than req'd
$gzcompress = gzdeflate ($description,6);
$gzcompress = addslashes($gzcompress);  //Reqd for SQL updates

$query = "UPDATE htmlcontent SET record_nbr = \"$record_nbr\", gzcompress = \"$gzcompress\", gzsize = $gzsize WHERE record_nbr = \"$record_nbr\"";
                  }
general_update($errno,$errmsg,$rowsaffected, $result, $s_synod_id, $query);   // UPDATE the record

*******************************************************
Next I attempt to read the record back and unzip gzcompress
Note that $description consists of 20 'a' characters.  Any repetitive char will do and only 15 to 20 are req'd
*******************************************************

$query = "SELECT * FROM htmlcontent WHERE record_nbr = \"$record_nbr\"";
       
general_read($errno, $errmsg,$numrows, $result_html, $s_synod_id, $query);
       
if  ($numrows > 0) {
    if ($row_html = mysql_fetch_array ($result_html)) {
         $content = stripslashes($row_html["gzcompress"]);
         if (strlen($content) > 0) {
******Error occurs on the following instruction*********
            $new = gzinflate($content,$row_html["gzsize"]);

Does this script work if you don't provide a compression level?

Does the attached patch help?

                stream.avail_out = (uInt) length;

(If there are broken line breaks and you can't apply it, change the line stream.avail_in = (uInt) Z_STRLEN_PP(data) to ...(data)+1 in the gzinflate function).

Please report if it works (and if it doesn't break other things). This seems to be a rather strange thing in the zlib library ...

Should be fixed in latest cvs version.
