There are officially more millennials living in their parents' basements than there are striking out on their own, buying homes, or shacking up with bae. (I know, right? The twenty-teens are not a good decade to be a young person, and not even Snapchat can make up for that). But for the lucky few who've … Continue reading Good Food, Cheap Beer, and Hot Singles: the Top 13 Cities for Millennials

ZF-8791: Error: Pdf file syntax error. 'startxref' keyword expected. Offset - 0x2180.
Zend_Pdf_Parser gives an error on line 440: $this->_stringParser->readLexeme();
The parser works fine on my local Windows XP development machine, but it crashes on my Ubuntu 8.04 Linux server. The code is exactly identical on both machines, and so is the PDF file that I am loading with Zend_Pdf::load().
The error stack is below:
Error: Pdf file syntax error. 'startxref' keyword expected. Offset - 0x2180.
0 /home/mvm_stevens/www_mvm/library/Zend/Pdf.php(303): Zend_Pdf_Parser->__construct('/home/mvm_steve...', Object(Zend_Pdf_ElementFactory_Proxy), true)

I outcommented the lines 440 until 453 in Parser.php and echoed the content of $data to the browser, to see if the PDF file is properly read with the 'fread' function, and the output almost identical. The Ubuntu machine seems to recognize more characters. For example, the Windows version showed the following as the 2nd line: %���� and Ubuntu showed: %âãÏÓ
Anybody any ideas what is going on or what I can do to get the Ubuntu server load these PDF files?
I had the same issue. The problem in my case was that i configure mbstring.func_overload to use mbstring functions instead of the normal string functions. Try something like this to see if this is also your problem:
ini_set('mbstring.internal_encoding', 'ASCII'); $pdf = Zend_Pdf::load('my.pdf'); ini_set('mbstring.internal_encoding', 'UTF-8');
mbstring setting didn't help for me
PDF handling worked flawless both with zf 1.5.1 (ubuntu 8.04) and zf 1.9.4 (ubuntu 9.10);
zend 10.1 on ubuntu 8.04 did not work (error as described above), so I went back to 1.5.1 on this machine
Exact same issue as Michael...
Ubuntu 8.04.3 and Zend 10.1
I've encountered the same problem on one domain hosting based on linux. I tried zf 1.5.1 and some versions between 1.5.1 and 10.1 but nothing helped. Zf 1.5.1 displayed another problem than "'startxref' keyword expected" (I haven't written it down) but it also failed.
After some investigation I discovered that code at line 440 $this->_stringParser->readLexeme() is actually expected to read 'startxhref' word from pdf file. But in fact it reads 'startxhre' (without 'f' at the end) so exception is thrown.
We had a similar issue.
On my Windows machine running Zend 1.9.6 and Php 5.2.8 it all worked fine. We then rolled it out to our live systems where it only works on one of the two Ubuntu machines.
I was tasked with figuring out what is happening here. We found that our one system is runnin PHP 5.2.4 and the other is running 5.2.5 both with Zend 1.9.6.
The one running 5.2.5 is working fine but the one with 5.2.4 is giving us the problems.
I then had a look at the StringParser.php. In there you will find that Zend 1.9.6 checks for \f as one of the white space characters. This is not supported in version 5.2.4 yet (http://php.net/ChangeLog-5.php). So I had to go do a version check and adjust the data parser.
You want to go to line 267 and replace it with the following block of code:
$compare = ""; if ( version_compare( phpversion(), '5.2.5' ) >= 0 ) { // this version added support for the escaped form feed character $compare = "()<>[]{}/%\x00\t\n\f\r "; } else { $compare = "()<>[]{}/%\x00\t\n\r "; }
$this->offset += strcspn($this->data, $compare, $this->offset);
Hope this solves your problem.
Thanks a lot, Quintin.
Your fix works great :).
Could this be fixed and backported to 1.9.7 (1.9.8 perhaps?) as the minimum requirement for ZF is PHP 5.2.4 and not PHP 5.2.5.
This is a serious showstopper. Could this PLEASE be fixed ASAP so we don't have to patch StringParser.php ourselves? This fix is here, please apply it.
This patch applies to Zend_Pdf_StringParser of ZendFramework 1.10.4
I'm sorry for spamming this issue, but could this fix be applied before the next mini-release?
Sorry for the delay guys, I'm not a Zend_Pdf maintainer but I noticed your Devzone comment ;). Ask, and thou shalt receive! So I reviewed the patch. Fix looks good so I've applied it in r22311. Worth noting, there are always devs around on our regular bug hunt days - if there are other patches anyone needs applying you can grab us on IRC at those times for assistance.
Will apply this to the release branch soon for next mini-release.
Thanks for resolving this, much appreciated.
Thanks a mil.
Thank you for applying it, Padraic.

One of the shortest and most powerful prayers we say, taught and used by Jesus Himself, is "Thy Will be done." Union with the will of God is the heart of salvation and the essence of holiness. It is also the soul of the Culture of Life, where we do not pretend that human life is subject to our will. Rather, we welcome human life because it is God's will to create and to entrust the lives of others to our care.
Not only accepting, but eagerly yearning for the will of God, causes us to serve the weak, and to work to see that human law reflects God's will by protecting the vulnerable. Saying "thy will be done" also helps us avoid the temptation to throw life away when it is afflicted with illness.

Jazz at Lincoln Center hosts the Best of Blue Note Festival November 13-18 in New York City. Giant Step is giving one lucky winner a pair of tickets to the Joe Henderson 75th Birthday performance on Saturday, November 17th at 7:30pm in The Allen Room ($130 value) and 10 CDs from the label's catalog.
There isn't a major-league saxophonist under 50 who hasn't incorporated Joe Henderson's singular language—his flexible sound across the registers, laid-back phrasing, cat-like approach to rhythm, and clarity of intention. One such is Chris Potter, who will inhabit the tenor chair on a 75th birthday celebration of Henderson's career (and his illustrious Blue Note discography) led by musical director and pianist Renee Rosnes, herself an alumna of several Henderson units. Joining the fray is NEA Jazz Master and long-time Henderson collaborator and Blue Note labelmate Bobby Hutcherson on vibraphone, Robert Hurst on bass, Jeremy Pelt on trumpet, plus drum giant Lewis Nash and rising star trombonist-arranger Michael Dease.
The CDs in the giveaway include albums featured in the Best of Blue Note Festival at JALC:
The Real McCoy (McCoy Tyner)
Mode for Joe (Joe Henderson)
Speak No Evil (Wayne Shorter)
Cool Strettin' (Sonny Clark)
Uno Mas (Kenny Dorham)
Cornbread (Lee Morgan)
Blues Walk (Lou Donaldson)
Free For All (Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers)
Investions and Dimensions (Herbie Hancock)
6 Pieces of Silver (Horace Silver)
The winner of the contest will be contacted on Monday, November 12th. Please note, the contest only includes the above items for one winner. Transportation and additional expenses are not provided.
To enter the contest, follow the rules outlined below:

- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 package (32 ounces) frozen Tater Tots

ZF-4: Move Proposals from SVN to Wiki
Proposal process is to be presented via the Wiki, and thus, the proposals should be moved from Subversion to Confluence using the new template format.
For sake of completion, we can move some of the key old ones over before we get to 1.0 beta.
I know of no proposals in svn at this time, so this must have been resolved long ago.
The proposals were removed in changeset 1194
Changing fix version to unknown.
Maybe we could resolve this by documenting how to resurrect the old proposals from SVN and/or attaching an archive of the files to the wiki?
Attached old proposals to proposals home in wiki.

|Two Vandals make national teams
Two Vandal track and field athletes, one a 2010 graduate and the other a 2011 freshman, were selected this week to represent Canada in international competition.
Christie Gordon, a five-time first-team all-Western Athletic Conference honoree, 2010 NCAA Preliminary Round qualifier and three-time NCAA Regional qualifier in the 100m hurdles, will represent her home country in the hurdles at the 2011 Athletics Summer Universiade (FISU), which will be held at Shenzhen, China, from Aug. 16-21.
Gordon was selected to the team after finishing fourth at the Canadian National Championships earlier this year at Calgary. In the preliminary round of that meet, she ran a career-best time of 13.20 in the 100m hurdles. She finished her Idaho career ranked second all-time with a best of 13.37 as a Vandal.
Alycia Butterworth, who completed in freshman season at Idaho in 2010-11, won the Canada junior national title in the 2000m steeplechase in early July at Winnipeg, and was selected to represent her country in the 3000m steeplechase at the Pan American Junior Championship, July 22-24 at Miramar, Fla.
Butterworth burst onto the scene for Idaho in her first season. She, along with 2011 teammate Hannah Kiser, became the first female Vandal freshman NCAA qualifier and was an NCAA quarterfinalist in the 3000m steeplechase. She was a first-team all-WAC honoree after a runner-up finish in the 3000m steeplechase at the WAC Outdoor Championships, and moved into sixth all-time at Idaho with a best of 10:37.27 in the event.

This book is based on that show, and includes photos of the quilts, the quilters, and copies of the artist statements, which in many cases, are as moving as the quilts themselves.

The pickle jar was a fixture in my parent's bedroom. It sat on the floor beside the dresser and when Dad got ready for bed, he would empty his pockets and toss his coins into the jar.
The sounds that pocket change made as they were dropped into the jar were always fascinating. They landed with a merry jingle when the jar was almost empty. However, the tones gradually muted to a dull thud as the jar was filled.
Growing up, I could never refrain from making glib comments about the things I saw.
Several years ago, I made what I perceived to be, some cute remarks about Uncle Walter's frequent snoring bouts in his front porch rocking chair.
He would sit there with his eyes shut tight, drooping head and wide-open mouth sleeping away.
In my heyday, (the early 1950s), I was a real football hotshot in the making for the Lancaster High School, or so I thought. However, some of my former Blue Hurricanes classmates will probably refute the notion that I was anyone's gridiron hero, so I had best not brag too much about my football prowess. Why, you ask? Because nothing is worse than being exposed. You know, it's sorta like loosing your swim trucks while coming through the underwater gate at the old Springs Swimming Pool. Now, back in the o
At one time, the significance of Nov. 11 – Veterans Day – wasn't lost on anyone. Of course, World War I ended years before I was born, but Uncle Harry made sure I was well-schooled on what he called the Great War or the War to End All Wars. There was a bunch of World War I soldiers around, too. Come to think of it, Mr. Jim Mahaffey (the grandfather of James, Ralph and Doris) lived just up the street from me. Mr.
Our future isn't about Buck Rogers and spaceships that cruise to far-away galaxies at the speed of light.It's about family.As I get older, I frequently think about what the future holds.What will it be like?Marble and bronze statues are erected to famous folks and heroes so they will be remembered by future generations.But I often wonder if those who stand on their shoulders will even care.Ten months ago, I was blessed with a great-grandson who will carry my family name into the future.Hopefully he
You know, I was kind of glad to see paper carriers get their due during National Newspaper Week.We should honor those who deliver the local news to our homes.Newspapers have been called many things from rags and birdcage liners to sources of enlightenment.Nothing is more aggravating than a walk to the street on a cool, crisp morning to find an empty tube (that's industry lingo for a paper box).
One hot summer afternoon, our mailman showed up on the porch with the Fall and Winter catalog from Sears, Roebuck and Co.The best part of its arrival was that the honor of tearing off the brown wrapping belonged to me.I ripped the covering off, opened it and held it close to my face to smell the pages that were crammed full of all kinds of good stuff.Then, a sign straight from heaven gates descended down to our kitchen table.Bless Pete, it was a bona fide miracle; the pages fell open to the bicycle section.There in color – wa
The one thing about walking down Main Street is that you don't have to stick to one sidewalk.Sure, there's a courthouse (west) side, but there's another side, too.
I recall reading somewhere that fishing is now a sport. That's not necessarily the case.It can't be very sporting for the fish unless he is as big as Jaws.As boys, we didn't have to worry about size, too much and we sure didn't have to worry about the limit. To me, this fishing was never the fun part. Getting ready to go, was.I didn't have to worry about running down to the nearby bait shop, either.

thank you. But the pics where removed.

thank you. But the pics where removed.
Sprat just proved the impossible can be done.
I have a full CNC machine shop, should be a bit easier for me. I found this thread over on the Guild: Login
They have an FAL print. Pryotex says its OK, others said it has errors. So download it with cautions. IIRC, you need 20 posts to download on the guild.
P.S. wierd, the posted copy says "login" where I pasted. Title is FAL castings build by Pryotex on july 1 2011
Just another note, I felt bad when Sprat suggested an FNG such as myself should have searched the forum first. He's right, but I HAD searched. I just looked again for his thread dated 5/14/2007, its not listed in my BIY forum for FAL.
FWIW, I spend more time scanning forums for old builds than i do posting. There's not much that hasn't been done several times before, especially if you have 20 forums to cruise through.
I joined Gunco and I'm making an effort to "pay it forward" for the great thread i found on building my HK21 here.
grumpy the pictures are there, I will repost them
my post about doing research was not directed at you to put you down it is attempt on my part to get you and more impotantly others who are reading and trolling to understand this info is out there
once I did this build there where lots of guns ( all with CNC) who had to do it themselves and good for them, the difference is I did mine by hand as i do with all my builds, just take patience and or course some level of skill
sorry about the pic quality
I cut the internal rails with a dremel with router attachment, I used a orignal; reciever stub I cut in half and filed flat I used it to start the thread and to ensure the timing was correct also the gas valve threads locked in to place with a receiver vise
the plans out there are close every step one must measure and remeasure
found the downloadable FN FaL blueprint
same one i have.Any one have a cleaner version???
Here's another. Not sure its better.
When this job gets to the top of the pile, I'll use both prints and an actual receiver.
I'm impressed with Sprat's solution to barrel timing. Still, I think I'll thread mill it.
I had large scale actual prints, but i sold then with the tooling, using the stub will help accomplish 90% of this build, the inner and outer rails just go straight back that should not be hard for CNC or bridgeport???
for the ejector block copy the plans provided, scale out on copy machine and double check with a actual full auto block , (most semi blocks do not have the holes drilled out)
just go slow there is no race this has all been done before by others
I was not trying to offend. Just seeing what else if anything was out there. This is one of those bucket list builds I always wanted to do.
I appreciate all the info that is shared.Sorry again if I offended anyone.

The new CD from three-time Grammy award winning trumpet player and composer Terence Blanchard was recorded in March 2008 in Blanchard's hometown of New Orleans at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art. Choices addresses the choices we all make in life – both as a society and on a personal level. "Life is all about expansion and evolution. We make choices every day, none of which are right or wrong. They are simply choices that allow us to explore the variety of what's before us." — Terence Blanchard
Accompanying Blanchard on the album are longstanding band members Fabian Almazan on piano, Derrick Hodge on bass and Kendrick Scott on drums, along with newcomer Walter Smith lll on saxophone, all of whom wrote significant track contributions to the CD as well. Guest artists include writer, speaker, educator and activist Dr. Cornel West, critically-acclaimed guitarist and Blanchard protégé Lionel Louke, and singer, musician and composer Bilal. West performs spoken word pieces on the album with Bilal providing vocals on several of the tracks.
Choices was premiered at a series of concerts at the Ogden in late July 2009 which were filmed for an upcoming documentary. It will also be accompanied by a worldwide tour featuring Terence and his band.

Partnership on Sustainable Low Carbon Transport
- Date submitted: 1 Nov 2011
- Stakeholder type: Major Group
- Name: Partnership on Sustainable Low Carbon Transport
- Submission Document: Download
Full SubmissionOn behalf of the Partnership for Sustainable Low Carbon Transport1 and various undersigned agencies, multilateral development banks, non-governmental organizations, associations, and businesses, the following statement is submitted for consideration as input to the compilation document which helps to develop the zero draft of the declaration for the Rio+20 Global Conference on Sustainable Development. Many recent statements recognize the vital importance of transportation in advancing sustainable development, including the Bangkok 2020 Declaration, endorsed by 22 Asian countries,2 the Bogota Declaration, endorsed by 9 Latin American nations,3 as well as the Report of the Secretary General to the UN Commission on Sustainable Development 19th Session on Policy Options and Actions for Expediting Progress in Implementation: Transport.4 Building on these declarations, we urge the CSD, governments, and others to recognize sustainable transport as a sustainable development goal, in and of itself, and to: 1. Adopt a Sustainable Development Goal specific to transportation: Achieve sustainable transport that enables universal access to safe, clean, and affordable mobility. 2. Adopt targets and indicators to measure progress towards sustainable transport and promote the development and adoption of control plans for transport-related pollution: A. Ensure global transport Greenhouse gas emissions and transport sector fossil fuel consumption peak by 2020 and are cut by at least 40 percent by 2050 compared to 2005 levels,5 while ensuring transport contributes to timely attainment of healthful air quality in all cities; Indicator A1: Annual fossil fuel consumption per person for personal transport and annual fossil fuel consumption per ton for freight Indicator A2: Annual transport fossil fuel consumption by mode and related greenhouse gases Indicator A3: Transport-related pollution contributions and number of days cities are in non-attainment of World Health Organization Air Quality Guidelines for key pollutants including Particulate Matter (PM)-10 and PM-2.5, Nitrogen Dioxide, and Ozone Indicator A4: Share of passengers and freight trips and passenger kilometers and ton kilometers by mode and distance-averaged vehicle load factors by mode Indicator A5: Vehicle fleet size, average fuel efficiency and total vehicle-km traveled by mode B. Support the Decade of Action for Road Safety (2011-20) and cut traffic-related deaths in half by 2025 C. Ensure universal access to sustainable transport though support for safe, affordable public transport and safe, attractive facilities for walking and bicycling. Indicator C1: Share of passenger trips and passenger kilometers traveled by public transport, walking, cycling, paratransit, car, motorcycle Indicator C2: Daily time spent in travel and share of household income spent on transport by poorest 20% Indicator C3: Proportion of urban roadways with safe walking & cycling facilities Indicator C4: Proportion of population within 1 km of public transport Indicator C5: Ratio of traffic deaths amongst wealthiest 20% to poorest 20% of population 3. Strengthen institutional arrangements to advance sustainable transport: A. United Nations: Enhance UN agency coordination around critical sustainable transport tasks to improve effectiveness in global agenda setting, capacity building, data collection and monitoring of progress, technology transfer, regional development, and cooperation with other sectors: this includes amongst others UNDP, UNEP, UN-HABITAT, UN-DESA, UNCRD and the UN regional commissions. Following the examples of UN-Energy and UN-Water, consider the establishment of UN Transport. B. Development Agencies and Banks: Adopt and monitor (a) sustainable transport targets, (b) goals to advance equitable access for all, and report on these targets and goals. Increase support for sustainable transport capacity building and transport sector climate resilience and adaptation. C. Multi-lateral Carbon Finance Instruments: Foster transport sector contributions to CO2 mitigation roughly equal to its 23% of energy-related carbon burden by improving transport sector access to carbon finance with sector-appropriate appraisal requirements for CDM, GEF, and CIF funds, and a transport sector window to the Green Climate Fund.7 D. Enhance Private Sector Participation: Foster public private partnerships and implement new business models in support of sustainable transport. E. Capacity Development: Strengthen both current voluntary multi-stakeholder partnerships on sustainable transport as well as intergovernmental processes on transport. 4. Endorse and encourage voluntary country actions for sustainable transport: A. Double the mode share of urban public transport by 2025 relative to 20108; boost walking, cycling, and ridesharing; and aim for a drive-alone light-duty motor vehicle mode share of one-fourth or less. B. Expand and improve bus rapid transit, mass transit, bike lanes, sidewalks, urban public space, information and logistics systems, ridesharing, and regional freight and intermodal facilities. C. Prioritize the provision of avoid-shift-improve strategies, including bus rapid transit, mass transit, bike lanes, sidewalks, urban public space, information and logistics systems, traffic operations and management, transit-oriented development, and regional freight and intermodal facilities over the construction of additional elevated or high-speed surface urban roads. D. Mitigate adverse impacts caused by the provision of improved transport and fairly compensate those displaced by transport infrastructure improvements. E. Adopt new road and urban design standards to prioritize safety, universal design, and use of sustainable transport modes, with incentives, requirements, and funding to spur timely implementation of standards by municipalities. F. Encourage and help fund implementation of sustainable transport and land-use plans for all cities emphasizing transit-oriented development G. Foster institutional capacity building related to sustainable transport and urban development H. Foster opportunities for public-private partnerships and innovative financing for sustainable transport and urban development. I. Shift subsidies and financing priorities from fossil fuels, roads, and private motor vehicles to instead support sustainable transport, targeted user-side-subsidies, and pro-poor development. J. Adopt the polluter pays principle, ensuring revenues from road use fees, parking and congestion charges, and fuel taxes at least fully cover road expenditures and related externality costs. K. Identify and invest in strategies to enhance transport sector climate adaptation and resilience. The Need for Action in the Global Transport Sector at Rio +20: Rapid global economic development and urbanization are fueling massive growth in the demand for transportation. Current practices of meeting increased transport demand mostly by growing automobile fleets and road network capacity are unsustainable. A study for the UN Environment Program estimates that transport-related externality costs in developing countries may range as high as 10% of GDP.9 Some 1.3 million people die in road accidents annually. Of those who die, 9 in 10 are from low- and middle-income countries and about half are pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists, drawn disproportionately from among the poor. Fatalities are projected to rise 80 percent by 2020 in low- and middle-income countries (just as they fall by 30 percent in high-income countries),10 at an economic cost to the developing world of up to US $100 billion a year (equivalent to all current annual overseas aid from OECD countries).11 Transport accounts for one-fourth to more than 80 percent of various local air pollutants in cities that cause and exacerbate respiratory illness, heart disease, premature death, and cancer. Air pollution is estimated to cause approximately 2 million premature deaths worldwide per year, with more than half of this burden borne by people in developing countries.12 Studies by the IPCC have suggested that cuts of Greenhouse gas emissions by as much as 50 to 85 percent below year 2000 levels will be needed to limit the potential for catastrophic climate change.13 Yet unless comprehensive changes in policy are made, car ownership will triple to over 2 billion, trucking will quadruple, and transport-related greenhouse gases will grow by 80 percent.14 A 2-degree Celsius climate protection goal certainly cannot be met without a considerable contribution to CO2 mitigation by the transport sector. A study by the United Nations Environment Programme shows that sustainable, low carbon, transport initiatives that reallocate just 0.34 per cent of global GDP in support of public transport infrastructure and efficiency improvements to road vehicles have the potential to cut the volume of road vehicles required to support equal economic activity by about a third, diminish the use of fossil fuel by up to a third, and boost transport sector employment by 10 percent.15 As the transport sector already directly provides 5 to 8 percent of a typical country?s total paid employment, with much higher indirect value added and employment in related sectors, there is significant economic development potential from pursuit of such initiatives.16 The impact of these changes in the structure of transport services on climate change would be to reduce Greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 by 68 percent below business as usual trends (and about 36 percent below 2010 levels. 16 percent more jobs per unit of investment than new road and bridge construction. The technologies and policies needed to obtain these sustainable transport benefits are well known, have proven to be effective, and often come at a small or even net-negative cost when accounting for such factors as fuel cost savings and other co-benefits. Yet they do require a commitment to concerted action. Because the transport sector is uniquely critical to all the three pillars of sustainable development ? economy, society, and environment ? it must be addressed by a sector-specific SDG developed around the above targets. Lacking such a goal, neither development assistance nor carbon-finance programs have focused effectively on many available low-cost opportunities for progress in the transport sector. The Broader Outcomes of an Agreement on the Proposed Transport-Specific SDG: Achieving the proposed SDG necessitates a global commitment to a set of best practices and strategies contained in new sustainable transport paradigm, known collectively as ?Avoid, Shift, Improve? (ASI). The ASI Best Practices focus on avoiding unnecessary motorized trips with smarter planning, pricing, and technology; shifting trips to more sustainable modes through price incentives, better information, and improved service quality; and improving vehicle efficiency with cleaner fuels, improved network management, and more efficient vehicle technology. All the elements of ASI have been demonstrated at scale. Successful examples of this include Bus Rapid Transit, bicycle-sharing and bikeway networks, integrated land-use/transport planning, parking limitations and management, smart parking and car-sharing, vehicle registration quotas, congestion pricing, vehicle emission standards, and intermodal freight and logistics systems.

ZF-11669: Zend_Service_Amazon_S3::copyObject is not working
After debugging I found out that the problem is related with Zend_Http_Client:
if (($method == self::POST || $method == self::PUT || $method == self::DELETE) && $this->enctype === null) { $this->setEncType(self::ENC_URLENCODED); }
As copyObject executes a PUT request, I realized that encType can't be URLENCODED.
Related with ZF-11030 see r24269
This issue started after 1.11.10, as long as I know, the ZF 11030 path was applied in this version, consequently, it broke other services.
I just found this ticket after running into this bug myself. I'm using 1.11.10 and copyObject isn't working because the signatures aren't matching. This seems to be because of a urlencoding issue.
I can confirm it is related with ZF 11030. After this path, the content-type header is always set if not explicity defined. The problem is that for copy operation, if content-type was specified, Amazon S3 expects that it were included in auth header signature.
I propose the follow path:
--- S3.php (revision 24083) +++ S3.php (working copy) @@ -524,10 +524,12 @@ { $sourceObject = $this->_fixupObjectName($sourceObject); $destObject = $this->_fixupObjectName($destObject); + $sourceInfo = $this->getInfo($sourceObject); $headers = (is_array($meta)) ? $meta : array(); $headers['x-amz-copy-source'] = $sourceObject; $headers['x-amz-metadata-directive'] = $meta === null ? 'COPY' : 'REPLACE'; + $headers['Content-type'] = $sourceInfo['type']; $response = $this->_makeRequest('PUT', $destObject, null, $headers);
This way, content-type header is explicity defined as the same of original object. In my tests, this issue doesn't affect other operations.
I confirm that Thiago's patch works for me.
Thiago's patch would force the Content-type header to the Content-type of the source object and make it impossible to change the Content-type during the copy operation by passing the $meta array.
I suggest to only add the header if it is not already specified in the $meta array.
Came up against this tonight while using 1.11.10. Upgraded to 1.11.11 and still had the problem. Rolled back to an old 1.11.4 just cuz it was there, and the S3 moveObject + copyObject calls started to work again... Point being: Appears to be a problem in .10 + 1.11.11
I encountered this problem today in the latest build from Zend. This can be coded around though, rather than using a patch.
$s = $s3->getInfo($source);
$meta['Content-type'] = $s['type'];
return $this->getS3()->copyObject($source, $destination, $meta);
Hope this helps.

You can connect a wireless phone, keyboard, mouse, or other device to your computer. This includes Bluetooth and wireless network (Wi‑Fi) devices. You can also add a network device to your computer, such as a network-enabled printer, storage device, or Windows Media Center Extender.
You don't have to add devices already connected to your computer with a USB cable or other wired connection. Windows will automatically detect and display them.
Bluetooth isn't supported in any version of Windows Server.
Open Control Panel by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Control Panel.
Under Hardware and Sound, click Add a device, and then follow the instructions.
If you don't see the wireless or network device you want to add, see the instructions below.
For more information about adding a wireless or network printer, see Install a printer.
If Windows can't detect a wireless device that you want to add to your computer, here are some tips that can help.
Make sure the device you're trying to pair with (connect to) isn't turned off, low on battery power, or in sleep mode.
Make sure you haven't already added the device to your computer. Devices that have already been added aren't displayed in the list of devices you can connect to in the Add a device wizard.
Make sure the device is within wireless range of your computer, typically within six to nine feet for most Bluetooth devices, or within 100 feet for a Wi‑Fi device. If you aren't sure if the device is in range, try moving it closer to your computer. If there's a wall between the device and the computer, try putting the device and computer in the same room.
Make sure there are no other devices interfering with the wireless device, such as microwave ovens, cordless phones, or other wireless devices.
If your computer uses an external Bluetooth or Wi‑Fi adapter, make sure the adapter is working correctly and is attached and installed properly.
If Bluetooth capability is integrated into your computer, make sure the Bluetooth radio transmitter is turned on. This might also turn your wireless network receiver on and off. Many laptops have an external switch for turning the transmitter on and off. If you aren't sure how to turn it on, check the information that came with your computer or go to the manufacturer's website.
Make sure the device is discoverable. When a Bluetooth device is set to be discoverable, it sends out radio signals to advertise its location to other devices and computers. If you aren't sure how to set your device to be discoverable, check the information that came with your device or go to the manufacturer's website. A device (such as a wireless mouse or a keyboard) might have a button on it that you need to push, while others (such as a Bluetooth mobile phone) might have a setting in their software menu that you need to select to make them discoverable.
If you're trying to add a wireless network device, it must be configured for your wireless network before you can add it to your computer. If you aren't sure how to do this, check the information that came with the device or go to the manufacturer's website.
Some Wi‑Fi devices need to be put into a discovery mode known as Wireless Protected Setup (WPS) before they can be detected. To learn more, check the information that came with the device or go to the manufacturer's website.
If you're using Bluetooth software from a manufacturer other than Microsoft, Windows might not be able to detect your Bluetooth device and let you add it to your computer. To check if your Bluetooth software came from Microsoft, follow these steps:
Open Control Panel by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Control Panel.
In the Control Panel search box, type Bluetooth, and then click Change Bluetooth settings.
In the Bluetooth Settings dialog box, click the Hardware tab and look for Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator.
If you don't see this, then your Bluetooth software didn't come from Microsoft.
Here are some tips on how to help Windows detect a network device that you want to add to your computer.
Make sure the device is already connected to the same network your computer is on. If this is a wired network device, make sure it's plugged into the network and turned on. If this is a Wi‑Fi device, make sure it's turned on and configured properly to connect to your network. If you aren't sure how to do this, check the information that came with the device or go to the manufacturer's website.
After you connect a new device to your network, wait several seconds for Windows to discover it.
Make sure your network firewall isn't blocking the device from appearing in the list of devices you can add. You might need to turn on network discovery. For information, see Enable or disable network discovery.
Not all network devices can be added to a computer, even if you can detect the device on your network. To find out if a device is able to connect to your computer, check the information that came with the device or go to the manufacturer's website.
Most network devices can only be discovered if they're on the same network subnet as your computer. If your network consists of multiple network subnets connected together, try to connect the device to the same network subnet. For more information, contact your network administrator.
Make sure the network device has an IP address and proper network address. Most network routers assign IP addresses automatically as devices connect to the network. For more information, contact your network administrator.
Make sure the device is configured to broadcast its presence on the network. Most network devices automatically do this. For more information, check the information that came with the device or go to the manufacturer's website.
If you're having trouble discovering or pairing with your network router or other network device, try updating the software on the device. This device software is called firmware. Check the website of the manufacturer for downloadable firmware updates.

ZF-9477: Zend_Validate_CreditCard validation error
In some circumstances, Zend_Validate_CreditCard can return the wrong error message when validation fails. Even if validation is unable to determine a credit card type, it still uses the $type variable to determine what error to return. This is partially a side effect of the fact that Zend_Validate_CreditCard only validates against CCIs that have been set by addType() or setType(). This means that if a credit card is of a known type, but that type is not accepted, validation may behave in an less-than-ideal way.
For example, with the following code example:
$cardValidator = new Zend_Validate_CreditCard(array(
'type' => array(
Even though the card number '6011956908810978' is technically in a valid Discover card format, the error message produced by this code is "'6011956908810978' contains an invalid amount of digits".
This is because isValid() loops through the accepted types (in this case Visa and American_Express) and when it doesn't find a match, the $type variable is still set to "American_Express", which was the last type to loop. Then, when the following code runs:
if ($found == false) {
if (!in_array($length, $this->_cardLength[$type])) {
$this->_error(self::LENGTH, $value);
return false;
} else {
$this->_error(self::PREFIX, $value);
return false;
It checks $this->_cardLength['American_Express'] which does not allow 16 digit card types.
If, instead the validation was performed in the following order:
- Determine card type and error if invalid type
- Determine if type is allowed and error if not allowed
- Determine if length is correct for type and error if incorrect length
The validator would produce more useful errors and it would solve the above bug.
I'll try to attach a patch shortly with a proposed solution.
Here's a proposed solution. Essentially it does exactly what I described in the bug report:
- It adds a new message constant "NOTACCEPTED"
- It modifies the "PREFIX" message from "'%value%' is not from an allowed institute" to "'%value%' is not a valid credit card number"
- It adds a message for the "NOTACCEPTED" constant "'%value%' is not an accepted credit card type"
- It modifies the initial loop in isValid() so that it loops through ALL known types, not just those that have been marked as accepted
- It performs 3 checks:
- Was the type found? If not, error with the "PREFIX" error.
- Is the found type an accepted type? If not, error with the "NOTACCEPTED" error.
- Is the length correct for the found type? If not, error with the "LENGTH" error.
The rest of the isValid() method is the same.
I agree that it would be better to return first if the institute is OK and then if the length is OK.
But your code is bogus. It adds some errorous behaviour.
Additionally NOTACCEPTED duplicates PREFIX in it's meaning. There is no difference between: "'%value%' is not from an allowed institute" and "'%value%' is not an accepted credit card type"
So: Agreed for the issue Not agreed for the patch
Fair enough, although I do think that there's a difference between:
- The card has an unknown prefix
- The card is not from an allowed institute
You're right, PREFIX should be left as-is, but it seems like like it should be provided when the card is from a known prefix but that prefix is not allowed, and a new error should be created for when the card is from an unknown prefix.
Aside from changing the meaning of one of the error constants, how does the code add erroneous behavior? I'm new at submitting code to ZF, so I want to make sure I do it properly.
Here's another potential solution. This time I just added a "NOPREFIX" message type with the message "'%value%' is not from a known institute". Then I made similar modifications to isValid(). I'm not sure what you're talking about erroneous behavior—it passed the unit tests.
Changed from bug to improvement
Great, thanks! I guess I should have submitted a bug report and an improvement request. Looks like we're all set, though.
Implemented with r21570
2 things to note on your not added patch: Noprefix was not added: "Not from an allowed institute" has the same meaning as "Unknown institute" for the customer. Its possible that some institues are just not known to Zend_Validate_CreditCard but still exist.
Regarding errorous behaviour: Your fix breaks the check itself. It makes it possible to have multiple types set (which can be done) but returns false when length and prefix are given for different types which are accepted but do not match.
I think that there is a slightly different meaning to the customer:
- "Not allowed" means that they entered their card correctly but we do not accept the card type.
- "Unknown" means that we don't recognize the type; it may be that it's valid and we do not accept it or it may be that it's invalid (due to a typo).
I also don't see how you'd get this erroneous behavior. It sounds like you're saying that my implementation would allow someone to pass in a card with a prefix & length that do not match as long as both are valid? I don't see how this is possible, as it:
- First determines the type, and errors if the type is unknown
- Next determine if the type is allowed, and errors if it is not allowed
- Finally checks the length against the length definition for the determined type, and errors if it does not match
How could this produce the result you described? Or, it could be that I'm not understanding your description of the behavior.

Eisenhower Leader Development Program (ELDP)
Master of Arts Program for the United States Military Academy
West Point, New YorkIn addition to the general M.A. Program in Social-Organizational Psychology, our program offers a slightly modified version for U.S. Army officers, predominantly with the rank of Captain, at the United States Military Academy (USMA), West Point, New York. This M.A. Program, which is called the Eisenhower Leader Development Program (ELDP), is conducted in collaboration with the Department of Behavioral Sciences and Leadership (BS&L) at the USMA. Faculty is predominantly from the Teachers College program with some from the USMA.
ELDP cohorts of approximately 24 officers complete a program of 45 credits, including a comprehensive examination at the end, in one year. In other words, their full time duty is to be a graduate student. Upon graduation, at least half of the officers will be assigned for two or three years as a Tactical Officer (TAC) in the U.S. Corps of Cadets at the USMA, West Point (those not assigned to be a TAC will return to other responsibilities or deployments within the Army). Those who are assigned as a TAC will be acting as the legal Company Commander of a Cadet Company, comprised of about 100 individuals (undergraduate cadets), and will be the primary developer of these cadets at the USMA, West Point.
The TAC officer assists each cadet in balancing and integrating the requirements of the physical, military, academic, and moral-ethical programs at the USMA. The TAC officer trains and coaches the cadet chain of command to establish and sustain high unit standards and behavior essential to a cohesive company environment. TAC officers inspire cadets to develop effective leadership styles through role-modeling, coaching, teaching, and training. TAC officers also present formal and informal instruction to the company, implement special development programs for individual cadets as needed, and they are responsible for all company administration.
The majority of the courses during the year are taken with other M.A. students at Teachers College, with Teachers College faculty, while a few are cohort-specific and are taught by Teachers College and USMA Faculty at the West Point Campus. Having this relationship with the USMA through the Eisenhower Leader Development Program strengthens the Social-Organizational Psychology Program at Teachers College through the increased diversity, perspective, and leadership experience that the ELDP students bring to the program.
