From: sebastian at sebsoft dot nl Operating system: Debian Lenny PHP version: 5.3.1 PHP Bug Type: HTTP related Bug description: file_get_contents doesn't support passwordless HTTP authentication
Description: ------------ When using file_get_contents, the function only seems to include HTTP Authentication data when the password is set. When no password is set (e.g. http://usern...@myurl.com), no authentication data is sent. The result of this is, when calling another PHP script with file_get_contents and only supplying an HTTP username, $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] is (unexpectedly) not set. We are using Apache 2.2 in this setup (for server.php). $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] does seem to be set when calling the same URL using cURL or a browser. Reproduce code: --------------- client.php: <?php echo file_get_contents('http://testusern...@hostname.tld/server.php'); ?> server.php: <?php if (isset($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'])) { echo $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER']; } else { echo "PHP AUTH USER not set"; } ?> Expected result: ---------------- USER: testusername Actual result: -------------- PHP AUTH USER not set -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50832&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50832&r=mysqlcfg
