Bug Description

Binary package hint: php5-cgi

This is related with php bug: http://bugs.php.net/37256

When using php in fastcgi mode, it does not detect any user abort. connection_status() always return 0, even after user aborts connection.

I'm using hardy. It's supposed to be solved in PHP 5.2 since May 2006, but perhaps hardy package 5.2.3-1ubuntu6.2 does not include the fix.

You can use this script to test the problem:
<?
ignore_user_abort(true);

echo "hello";
flush();
sleep(10);
echo "bye"

$fp=fopen('/tmp/conection_log.txt','a');
fputs($fp,'Connection status is: '.connection_status()."\n");
fclose($fp);

If you press stop after loading the page (you will have time because the sleep 10), connection_status shouldn't be 0 at the end of the script.

If you need any other detail about the setup or something else just ask.

And you are going to open a new bug on the PHP buzilla or where? can you tell me the php bug id to follow up that bug too?

Thanks

Please, it IS a bug. They closed the bug wrongly:
-------------------------------
Script continues normally and abort IS ignored, this is of course the
intended functionality.

But the return of connection_status() is always 0, when it should be 1
(ABORTED) to indicate that the connection is closed because an abort.

See connection_status() documentation. The return of that function is
what is buggy here:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.connection-handling.php

Please, reopen this bug.

Sorry, my fault.

I discussed this with the PHP developers and now I see it's not a bug. Sorry again for bothering here.
