Bug Type: Filesystem function related
Operating System: WinNT
PHP Version: 4.3.1
New Comment:

I don't know if this is related, but I think so. Please tell me if I
should better submit this as a new bug.

The fseek teleports my file pointer to some strange places. I'm using
Win2K (NT5 SP4) with administrative rights and I'm running EasyPhp
1.6.0.0 that contains PHP 4.2.0. But the same script works on Debian
GNU/Linux 2.2.20 with PHP 4.1.2!

Here's my example script (note that none of the two fseek methods
work):

function getChar($fp, &$c)
{
$c=fgetc($fp);
if(feof($fp))
return false;
return true;
}

$fp=fopen('parseTest.txt','r');
while(true)
{
$c=fgetc($fp);
if(feof($fp))
break;
echo("$c");

//fseek($fp, -1, SEEK_CUR);
fseek($fp, ftell($fp)-1);

$c=fgetc($fp);
if(feof($fp))
break;
echo("$c");
}
fclose($fp);
echo('<EOF>');

The file that I read contains just this:
Hello World!

The correct output on Debian GNU/Linux 2.2.20 with PHP 4.1.2:
hheelllloo wwoorrlldd!!

<EOF>

The problematic output on Win2k with PHP 4.2.0:
h<EOF>

Ok that's it. Thank you for your support! :)

I know how to install PHP using a ZIP-file...
1,22 MB (1.286.144 Bytes) - Is this the right dll? (At least this is
the dll in the snapshot I downloaded - Last edited today)

The error still exists with the dll, mentioned above!

Just replace every existing php4ts.dll with the new one from the
snapshot package..and make sure nothing is running when you do this.

I'm sorry, but then the bug isn't (completly?) removed - used snapshot
resulting fread-error: php4-win32-STABLE-200303050930

This was fixed last week; any current snapshot should contain the fix.
