Hi Developoers,
I'm asking this here because I've run out of help in php-general (see
"POST superglobal is not set" for history if interested).
I have php-5.0.0 compiled as cgi on redhat linux 7.2 running apache
1.3.22.
When I send html form post to php script, $_POST is empty and $_REQUEST
is empty. I tested apache cgi using
(ftp://ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu/Web/httpd/Unix/ncsa_httpd/cgi/cgi-src/post-query.c)
and apache is passing post data on stdin correctly. I tested the php
binary using ksh scripts (export environment variables and pipe
data on stdin) and it populates $_POST properly. All permissions
on php install tree appear ok and I can find no significant differences
between apache cgi environment and my local user environment.
How can I verify (to be absolutely sure) that php is receiving post data
on stdin?
If the above test succeeds, any ideas how to track down what is
breaking? (I'm not beyond hacking c code, just need some pointers to
the relevant files). And perhaps knowledge of the data path POST data
goes through when php runs as cgi.
