Summary: is_readable() causes crash in special cases
Status: Open
Type: Bug
Package: Filesystem function related
Operating System: Windows 7 Pro 64bit
PHP Version: 5.3.10

Yes, it's the is_readable() function:
...
$path = APPLICATION_PATH . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $theme .
DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'layout' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR .
str_replace('_', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, $layout) . '.layout.php';
if (!is_readable($path))
{
$host = self::getHost();
throw new Cz_Request_Exception("Action configuration error: layout file
'$path' for action '$action' and host '$host' does not exist or is not
readable.");
}
...
The path seems to be a part of the problem, but the error depends on more
factors. Here are some details of my research:
1) Not 8 spaces are required to create the error, one additional space is
enough. This single space can be inserted somewhere in the file to produce the
error.
2) I could reproduce it with two different paths, because the Apache
directories in my tests where not the same. One is "C:\apache2" and the other
is "C:\Apache24". The error occurred in both versions.
3) When I try to create a script to reproduce the bug I don't get an error.
Also when I call is_readable() on the original file from there.
4) I renamed the template file. Same behaviour.
5) file_get_contents(), readfile(), file_exists(), file(), fopen() on the same
file work as expected (no error).
6) include() and require() behave like is_readable() (error)
Is there a way to get more debug information?

And how is the path?
Are you sure it is is_readable and not the include/require function which
crashes?

Description:
------------
While I was working on some simple HTML templates I suddently got an error.
Apache (2.2.22 or 2.4.1, both from apachelounge.com) didn't reply my request
anymore.
I spend hours with debugging and found the cause for the bug: a call of the
is_readable() function, which checked the template file I have been working on.
After further checks I found the "problem" in the file:
8 simple spaces, added by the editor as line indent.
If I remove the spaces, everything works fine. If I add the spaces, php ends
processing when calling is_readable() on the file. I can repeat it as often as
I want - it's the same file, in the same directory, with the same rights.
I wanted to create an example for you, but if I copy the file to another path,
the error doesn't occur anymore. So the problem seems to be dependent of the
file's path and content. Also PHP doesn't create an error, it just aborts the
request (and the shutdown function isn't called).
Test script:
---------------
sorry, not possible
Expected result:
----------------
TRUE for the call of is_readable(), as the file exists and is readable
Actual result:
--------------
crash
