Operating system: SuSE Linux 9.1
PHP version: 5CVS-2005-03-19 (dev)
PHP Bug Type: CGI related
Bug description: $_POST, $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA not set
Description:
------------
This bug is similar to, but not quite the same as bug #31417.
Running Suse Linux 9.1, Apache 2.0.53 and latest snapshot of PHP, I do not
have $_POST variables being set. $_GET superglobal seems to be fine.
Additionally, even though phpinfo() shows 'always_populate_raw_post_data'
on, $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is not defined.
PHP configure line is:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php5 \
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs \
--with-libxml-dir=/usr/local/lib --with-zlib \
--with-zlib-dir=/usr/local/lib \
--with-mysql=/usr \
--with-gd \
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib --with-png-dir=/usr/lib \
--enable-gd-native-ttf --with-freetype-dir=/usr/lib \
--enable-soap --enable-sockets \
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr --enable-exif
Reproduce code:
---------------
<html>
<body>
<?php
echo '<!-- $_POST:'.print_r($_POST, TRUE)." -->\n";
echo '<!-- $_GET:'.print_r($_GET, TRUE)." -->\n";
echo '<!-- $_REQUEST:'.print_r($_REQUEST, TRUE)." -->\n";
// Next line generates 'Undefined variable: HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA'
// even though phpinfo shows always_populate_raw_post_data On
// echo '<!-- raw post data:'.$HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA." -->\n";
if (!isset($_POST['tableName']) or trim($_POST['tableName']) == '') {
?>
<form method="post" action="post.php">
<p> Table Name: <input type="text" name="tableName" /> </p>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
<?php } else { ?>
<p> You entered <?php echo $_POST['tableName']; ?> </p>
<?php } ?>
</body>
</html>
Expected result:
----------------
I expect the code to present a form to input a string, then display the
string when the form is submitted. I expect to see comments in the page
source displaying the $_POST, $_GET and $_REQUEST arrays.
Actual result:
--------------
The $_POST variables are not set when the form is submitted. If I attach
variables to the URL (i.e. post.php?key=value), I see variables in the
$_GET and $_REQUEST superglobals. Comments generated in the page source
indicate that $_POST is an array, but it is empty.
