My web host updated yesterday from PHP 5.1.1 to 5.2.2, and one of my
scripts immediately broke, although the 5.2.2 release notes don't seem
to indicate I should have a problem.
The script relied on having $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA set. Starting yesterday
it's always an empty string.
I guessed that my web host had changed the setting of the
always_populate_raw_post_data flag. However they assure me that their
php.ini did not change with the update.
What would have caused this change? I've been using the script for
months without trouble, so having it die on the same day as the 5.2.2
update doesn't seem like it could be a coincidence.
I've worked around the problem by using
file_get_contents("php://input"), but I'd really like to understand why
my script suddenly broke with this udpate.
