Operating system: CENTOS
PHP version:      5.2CVS-2008-05-08 (CVS)
PHP Bug Type:     Unknown/Other Function
Bug description:  POST DATA LIMITED IN 60K WHEN LIMIT IS 20M

Description:
------------
OS: CENTOS, PHP 5.2, APACHE 2.1
At PHP.INI memory_limit is set to 20M
post_max_size is set to 20M
the same goes for maximum upload

however everything larger than 60K is cut off.

in another server with PHP 4.x everything works perfect even with huge
amounts of data


Please tell me if you want to see PHP.INI for ...verification. I'll be
glad to copy/paste it.

Reproduce code:
---------------
the code is simple:
<form action=target.php method=post> 
<textarea name=a1> </textarea>
<button type=submit> send</button>
and for the target.php
<?
$a1=$_REQUEST['a1'];
echo $a1;
?> 

Expected result:
----------------
the text (larger than 60.000 characters) to be displayed on screen

Actual result:
--------------
blank screen (nope, not because of an error, but because the variable is
null)
