Description:
------------
I am using PHP 4.3.10 with Apache 1.3.29 as DSO module.
I changed default_charset variable in php.ini to a custom
value ("koi8-r").  phpinfo() reports that the value of this variable is in fact "koi8-r".

But HTTP headers for any PHP page on my server looks as follows: Content-type=text/html; charset=

that is charset is empty.

I wonder is it a bug or an intended behaviour (what are the reasons to not apply the value of charset specified in php.ini in that case)?

Thanks in advance!

I can not reproduce this, it works fine for me. (On both PHP 4 and 5).

The problem becomes much less bogus if I add the following information:

1) I use apache from Solaris packages (SUNWapchr, SUNWapchu)
with the latest patches available (113146-06)
2) The vital part of php.ini to reproduce the problem is:
magic_quotes_gpc = Off

Without this line the problem does not exist.
To reveal the problem use the following php.ini:
[PHP]
magic_quotes_gpc = Off
default_charset = "koi8-r"

I've never had magic_quotes_gpc set to anything but 'off'. 
So I still can't reproduce this.

What was the configure line you used to configure PHP?
 [2005-01-10 08:26 UTC] mitya at demos dot su 
./configure --prefix=/usr/apache --sysconfdir=/etc/apache
--with-apxs=/usr/apache/bin/apxs --disable-cgi --with-config-file-path=/etc/apache --disable-ipv6 --without-mysql --with-snmp=/usr/local --enable-memory-limit

I have the latest net-snmp installed from sunfreeware.com.

Is there any chance the problem is that apache was compiled (by SUN) with SUN Workshop compiler and I am compiling PHP with GNU C compiler?

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip

Yes, it is possible. Try compiling Apache with same tools as you compile PHP.
