#128 Squirrelmail does not work with PHP 5.1.2

[jamess]

Here is my summary after trying to get Squirrelmail to
work with PHP 5.1.2:

1) 1.4.7 - no hope

2) 1.5.1 - works partially; hangs up in login and
logout; reads and composes mail correctly

3) 1.5.2 - 20060724 checkpoint and current top do the
same thing when attempting to run the login script:

-----------------------------------------------

/d0/mary/squirrelmail/include/init.php on line 85

---------------------------------------------------

The code in include/init.php:

/**
* calculate SM_PATH and calculate the base_uri
* assumptions made: init.php is only called from
plugins or from the src dir.
* files in the plugin directory may not be part of a
subdirectory called "src"
*
*/
if (isset($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])) {
$a = explode('/',$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
} elseif (isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_NAME'])) {
$a = explode('/',$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
}
$sSM_PATH = '';
for($i = count($a) -2;$i > -1; --$i) {
$sSM_PATH .= '../';
if ($a[$i] === 'src' || $a[$i] === 'plugins') {
break;
}
}

$base_uri = implode('/',array_slice($a,0,$i)). '/';

appears to fail if both of the if clauses are false.

Not sure what this is supposed to be doing. Any
suggestions?

Thanks!

MORE INFO:

if (isset($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])) {
$a = explode('/',$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
} elseif (isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_NAME'])) {
$a = explode('/',$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_NAME']);
} else {
$a = explode('/',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
}

seems to work better.

1) The second clause was wrong (checked for HTTP_SERVER_VARS
but used _SERVER anyway).

2) Some web servers apparently set REQUEST_URI but not
SCRIPT_NAME.
