ID: 31391 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: ceo at l-i-e dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Feature/Change Request -Operating System: All +Operating System: * PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment:
I do not see any harm in this, save that it would be limiting a feature to a specific server by design. Perhaps if it was implemented on *all* SAPIs that it is in context on, not just Apache? The bigger question, I suppose, is "is this the place of phpinfo()"? As I understand it, phpinfo() is used to check configuration, but the manual states: "Outputs a large amount of information about the current state of PHP." Perhaps server uptime *is* 'the current state of PHP'? Is this information readily obtainable through other means? Would this be better implemented as 'apache_get_uptime()'? Just points for discussion, I am not going to take any action on it.

So when you think you re-started Apache, but it silently failed because of a dumb /etc script, you know why that change to httpd.conf or php.ini didn't work. Or if you're a newbie and you are staring at that phpinfo() output, you'll realize more quickly that the world is not what you think it is, because Apache was supposed to have been re-started. Or... I just think it would help reduce the number of confused users, particularly the less experienced ones. Hey, server up-time would also be Good Thing (tm), while you're at it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=31391&edit=1
