PHP will cause a segmentation fault if CURL_POST is set to 1, but there is no CURL_POSTFIELDS set.

Sorry if this has already been reported before, I tried searching for it, but might have missed it.

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a backtrace to see what is happening behind the scenes. To
find out how to generate a backtrace, please read
http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace.php

Once you have generated a backtrace, please submit it to this bug
report and change the status back to "Open". Thank you for helping
us make PHP better.


Which version of curl libraries is your php compiled with?


 [2002-06-28 02:49 UTC] nuitari at darklands dot cx
libcurl 7.9.8
Error was also in 7.9.7
I don't know for earlier versions.

Sample php script:
<?
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"http://www.google.com");
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_exec($ch);
?>

strace info snippet:
send(3, "POST / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: www.googl"..., 193, 0) = 193
gettimeofday({1025268846, 532533}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1025268846, 532555}, NULL) = 0
select(4, [3], [3], NULL, {1, 0})       = 1 (out [3], left {1, 0})
gettimeofday({1025268846, 532760}, NULL) = 0
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) ---

Doesn't segfault for me with PHP 4.3.0-dev and curl 7.9.5.
Can you please try the latest snapshot:

http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz

(with your installed curl library)

This might be related to http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=17240 . The cURL's author of reported the problem solved in 7.9.8. From the backtrace it sure looks like the problem is in libcurl.
 [2002-07-02 21:50 UTC] sniper@php.net
still no feedback..

 [2002-07-03 07:50 UTC] sterling@php.net
Not a php bug, and its fixed in cURL.
