I have been looking through the curl changes. Nothing really jumps out at me though. Jani's curl handle change perhaps? Doesn't seem like that would cause this.
Anyway, here is a standalone little test case: <?php $url = 'http://slowgeek.com/test.xml'; $cfile = '/var/tmp/test_'.$prefix.md5($url).'.xml'; $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fp = fopen($cfile,'w')); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 30); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 60); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); $status = curl_exec($ch); if(!$status) echo curl_error($ch); fclose($fp); // No implicit flush here? curl_close($ch); $data = file_get_contents($cfile); var_dump($data); // 0 bytes here fflush($fp); // fflush after the fclose fixes it?? $data = file_get_contents($cfile); var_dump($data); // full contents here In 5.2.9 this prints out the xml twice. In 5.2.10 and our current 5.3 code, it prints out 0 bytes for the first var_dump. This took down my Slowgeek site yesterday and was a bitch to debug and I consider this a rather critical problem. -Rasmus -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
