echo strlen(base64_decode($a)) . "\n\n";
echo strlen(sodium_base642bin($a, SODIUM_BASE64_VARIANT_ORIGINAL_NO_PADDING));
base64_decode decodes that string just fine but sodium_base642bin fails, regardless of what the $id parameter is (SODIUM_BASE64_VARIANT_ORIGINAL, SODIUM_BASE64_VARIANT_ORIGINAL_NO_PADDING, SODIUM_BASE64_VARIANT_URLSAFE and SODIUM_BASE64_VARIANT_URLSAFE_NO_PADDING). More specifically, sodium_base642bin throws the following (useless) exception:
Fatal error: Uncaught SodiumException: sodium_base642bin(): Argument #1 ($string) must be a valid base64 string
Any ideas?
As stated in a comment by @Rylee, your base64 string is malformed. Since base64_decode tends to ignore some errors by working in non-strict mode by default, it does'nt fail. But by setting the strict parameter to true, the function will return false.
To check whats going wrong, you can use a tool like this base64 validator, it will say that it's invalid, and even propose you to repair it.
Once repaired, if you diff char by char the result with your encoded string, you find out that the last character S must be removed in order to get a fully valid base64 encoded string.
