Description:
------------
put the 2 test scripts inside the same apache server host directory, and run test.php to see the result.

when not setting [out_buffering] with [Off] in php.ini, ob_clean() does not clear the output. But if replace the code marked (*) with those marked (**), everything is okay, Just [HELLO] is output.

when setting [out_buffering] with Off, everything is okay.

when using php cli, everything is okay.

The situation is also found in PHP5.5.9 with apache.

Test script:
---------------
====test.php====
<?php
//tested under php5.5.9 with apache2.4.7-x64-windows (XAMPP1.8.3)
//tested under php5.6.4 with apache2.4.10-x64-kylin-ubuntu-14.04
register_shutdown_function(function() {
    while (ob_get_level()>1) {
        ob_end_clean();
    }
    ob_clean(); //........(*)

//    ob_end_clean(); //......(**)
//    ob_start(); //......(**)

    echo '';
    echo 'HELLO';
});
ob_start();
while (ob_get_level()>1) {
    ob_end_clean();
}
ob_clean(); //.......(*)
//ob_end_clean(); //........(**)
//ob_start(); //.......(**)
echo '';
require_once 't.php';

I think you have

ouput_buffering = 4096

aren't you? PHP will start to output when buffer size exceeds 4096 bytes. 

The reason why PHP behaves differently is CLI does NOT enable output_buffering by default. i.e. CLI ignores the setting, since it supposed to be interactive.

In conclusion, you have 2 output buffers under web SAPI, but 1 buffer under CLI. That's the reason why. i.e. You aren't cleanup buffer with while(ob_get_level()>1)
 [2015-01-26 03:10 UTC] exsystemchina at gmail dot com
so, there's no way for clearing anything of the output at the end of the execution in PHP, despite of setting [out_buffering=off]?
 [2015-01-26 04:08 UTC] exsystemchina at gmail dot com
i've got it, ob_* functions operates the SAME buffer configured by output_buffering.
 [2015-01-27 03:47 UTC] yohgaki@php.net
Excelent!
BTW, you should try to clean all cleanable/removable buffers by

while(ob_end_clean()) {};

There are buffers that cannot be cleaned/removed. If you would like to make sure what happened, use ob_get_status().
