htmlspecialchars and UTF8 bug

[clinton4]

Hi,

In previous version of PHP 5, there is a known bug regrding UTF8 and htmlspecialchars. I read that this was fixed here -> http://www.atomicorp.com/news/atomic-ar ... p-534.html but i still get an empty string when i use norwegian chars like ÆØÅ with htmlspecialchars. Is this verified fixed? If so, what could my problem be?

I'am running CentOS 5 (final) and PHP 5.3.5.

Thanks

[clinton4]

Anybody?

[mikeshinn]

That should still be fixed in 5.3.5., have you tried rolling back to 5.3.4 to see if the same thing happens (or not)? That would tell us if this is actually the UTF8 bug, if your problem occurs in 5.3.4 then we can rule that out as the root cause, if it doesnt occur in 5.3.4 then something changed in 5.3.5.

Hi and thanks for your reply

When i try to downgrade PHP, i get this dependency error:

[root@server ~]# yum --enablerepo=atomic-testing downgrade php

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.

If i do the --skip-broken part, would that couse any problems?

Hi again,

I did # yum --enablerepo=atomic-testing downgrade php php-common php-cli

and now PHP don't work at all. I only get HTTP 500 error.

[breun]

What does the error_log say?

What php* packages do you have installed right now?

Code: Select all

# rpm -qa | grep ^php | sort

[clinton4]

Hi,

I did try to upgrade again, and did #yum --enablerepo=atomic-testing upgrade php php-common php-cli

Then i figured out that i nedded to install php-mysql and did #yum --enablerepo=atomic-testing install php-mysql

This is what i get from #rpm -qa | grep ^php | sort

php-5.3.5-2.el5.art
php-cli-5.3.5-2.el5.art
php-common-5.3.5-2.el5.art
php-mysql-5.3.5-2.el5.art
php-pdo-5.3.5-2.el5.art

Now, PHP seems to be up and running again, but i cant access my Plesk admin area. I get no error message when i try to access Plesk, the site just wont load.

My erro_log says:
PHP Fatal error: Class 'DOMDocument' not found in /bla/bla/bla

Edit: I now did #yum --enablerepo=atomic-testing install php-xml, that go rid of the DOMDocument error, but still no access to Plesk panel.

Edit2: I now get a error message like this in my error_log:
[Mon Mar 07 00:42:36 2011] [warn] RSA server certificate CommonName (CN) `plesk' does NOT match server name!?

[breun]

Plesk does not use the php* packages on your system for the web interface, so this doesn't sound directly related to your PHP issues. Have you checked Plesk's logs for errors?

That Apache warning is harmless, it just reports about the hostname on Plesk's default SSL certificate being differing from your actual hostname.

[clinton4]

Okay, the Plesk access problem happend after i did the PHP downgrade, maybe i removed some package that i shouldnt?

In /usr/local/psa/admin/logs i only have httpsd_access_log, do you know where i can find Plesk's error log?

[breun]

Okay, the Plesk access problem happend after i did the PHP downgrade, maybe i removed some package that i shouldnt?

Maybe, I don't know what packages were removed. /var/log/yum.log should be able to tell you what happened if you don't remember.

In /usr/local/psa/admin/logs i only have httpsd_access_log, do you know where i can find Plesk's error log?

I believe that should be the location.

[clinton4]

Okay, i have no erro log in /usr/local/psa/admin/logs

Here is my yum log, if you can se any obvious mistakes here, please let me know

You erased a couple of psa-* packages, which are Plesk packages. I'd install those again.

[breun]

I'd try the autoinstaller. Are you on Plesk 9.0.1?

[clinton4]

I wil try that. I'am on 9.2.2
