No 8.0.30 Windows build

Description

Hi,

Unfortunately, I can't find a PHP 8.0.30 windows build.

Am I missing something?

PHP Version

PHP 8.0.30

Operating System

Windows

Any hints what's wrong with the Windows build system? No build for 8.0.30 and no rebuild for the retagged 8.2.9. It would be nice if we would at least know the current plan and what to expect. Thanks!

There was a problem with the build for 8.2.9 due to tagging issues - could be that hasn't been resolved yet and so affected the 8.0.30 build as well...

Same boat stuck with our vulnerability scanner yelling about a recent CVE fixed in 8.0.30 with no option to download it,

I am also having a security scanner flagging the current php with no ability to upgrade to 8.0.30

[Acta2000]

Ist there any solution in Progress?

[GravisTechRyan]

Are we going to get any movement on this?

[GravisTechRyan]

The delay on this is very frustrating

Looks like no one cares.

@Finn0811 @GravisTechRyan Please keep such comments to yourself. PHP is an open-source software and everybody is welcome to contribute. Nobody has the right to expect anything from volunteers.

If the issue is pressing to you or your company, hire a developer who will look into this. However, I must inform you that the problem isn't that nobody cares or that there's a lack of volunteers, but rather that no one knows what happened. If you wish to help out in the investigation, it would be highly appreciated. Bumping this issue more isn't going to help.

As an alternative, you can consider building the binary yourself from source. The instructions can be found here https://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/stepbystepbuild

Agreed that the discussion should be kept productive vs just bumping in the hopes someone notices, but I think the issue at hand is that the break isn't necessarily in the code itself visible here in the repo but is located in whatever release pipeline pushes to windows.php.net. Unless I'm mistaken that process isn't something the average volunteer has access to troubleshoot (although it's entirely possible I'm mistaken on that).

For example, on my part normally I just wait on the update message posted by @ramsey to let me know a new version has been deployed, so the steps behind what is actually performing that build and push to the website is a complete unknown to me.

I'll say though for other folks in the same boat hitting this thread if you're under the gun it seems like shivammathur, whose script I've run in the past for PHP installs via Powershell, has a built version of 8.0.31 for Windows available as of about an hour ago:

https://github.com/shivammathur/php-builder-windows/releases/tag/php8.0

I believe 8.0.31 is dev\nightly\qa currently but it looks like it IS valid:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/php/php-src/PHP-8.0/main/php_version.h

So, an option I may try on my end first to avoid a Visual Studio install.
