Description:
------------
In the selected version and some previous ones going back a few weeks or months (not sure which exact versions), a change was apparently made to the Location header mechanism.

Test script:
---------------
http_response_code(201);
header('HTTP/1.1 201 Created', true, 201);
header('Location: foobar', true, 201);
http_response_code(201);
header('HTTP/1.1 201 Created', true, 201);

Expected result:
----------------
It's supposed to be possible to set the Location header and have a status 3** OR 201. At the very least php's own docs confirm this: https://secure.php.net/manual/en/function.header.php

Actual result:
--------------
Setting the Location header results in a 302 no matter what I try to the contrary.

header('Location: http://example.com/', true, 303);

works for me with latest PHP-7.2 and the built-in webserver. Which
SAPI do you use?

I use php in lighttpd, is fastcgi the answer you need?

Your example is 303, have you tried 201?

I suppose it could be a lighttpd issue too, but lighttpd's changelog doesn't mention anything like this either, and php has a history of being bossy about Location+status, so I started here...

Not quite.  What does php_sapi_name() return (likely either
cgi-fcgi or fpm-fcgi).
 [2018-11-16 15:39 UTC] marnick dot leau at gmail dot com
cgi-fcgi

honestly that's why phpinfo() shows SAPI and so on to provide basic informations  in the initial report - keep in mind people need to duplicate issues and so in doubt need an as much as possible environment to debug

Thanks!

Didn't think of it, sorry. Do you want me to run that now or have you already been able to reproduce it now?

I cannot reproduce this with PHP-7.4 and the given test script;
neither when running php-cgi stand-alone from the command line,
nor when running via IIS.  Either that issue has been fixed in the
meantime, or it is related to the Webserver.

If this is still an issue for you with any of the actively
supported PHP versions[1], please test running php-cgi from the
command line.
