Could not open input file: should be sent to stderr #11141
Description
Description
Repro command: php non-existent.php
Currently the output (Could not open input file: non-existent.php) is sent to stdout but it should be sent to stderr instead.
I have discovered when using php for interprocess communication where the stdout might be consumed as regular data causing protocol failure hard to understand, as in my case, only the first 4 bytes were consumed (and from Coul it was hard to identify the problem). Simply said, stdout should never contain any other data then data printed by a valid script.

Looks like
php_printfis used a bit inmain/and SAPIs for this - and if we're counting sundry diagnostic information, even more in extensions andZend/. It probably shouldn't.iluuu1994 commentedon Apr 29, 2023
Switching to STDERR should be fine. U fortunately, the error messages seem to be quite inconsistent with where they are printed.
