Description:
------------
The POST form data is always empty, while GET works.

In linux with PHP 5.1 built: Feb 20 2005 14:51:15, I don't have any problem.

I had apache 2.0.52 and I upgraded it to 2.0.53 and still doesn't work.

Any simple script like the above helps to reproduce:
<?
print_r($_POST);

if(!empty($_POST['t'])){
    file_put_contents('bugs.txt',$_POST['t']);
    echo "ok";
}else{
    echo '<body><form method="POST" action="bugs.php"><textarea rows="10" name="t" cols="92"></textarea></p><p><input type="submit" value="submit"></form></body>';
}
?>

I am also experiencing this problem - I was OK with the Feb 19 PHP snapshot, but by Feb 28, it was not working on my Win XP Pro, SP 2 system (nor was it working with March 1 nor March 3 builds).  It happens with both POST data and also when enctype='multipart/form-data'.  HOWEVER, as near as I can tell $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is populated.
I am using Apache 2.0.53 and I have php.ini in c:\windows.
Besides that I have the following 4 files in c:\winapps\php.net:
php.exe, php-win.exe, php5ts.dll, and php5apache2.dll, a fairly minimalistic setup.  My path includes c:\winapps\php.net

If you can tell me how I can get the win32 builds for Feb 20-Feb 25, I can test each of them to see when the problem crept in.  I couldn't figure this out from http://snaps.php.net/win32

yep $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is populated but neither $_POST or $HTTP_POST_VARS are.

What were your configure params? Which MPM was used by 
Apache2?

 [2005-03-05 09:37 UTC] nlopess@php.net

I think this is a windows only problem.
I'm using the winnt MPM.

The config is always the same. I just upgrade the binaries.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change
will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at
http://snaps.php.net/.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
