Subject: PHP-4.3.2 Crashes with OCI8 extention (Bug?)
From: reubendb@innovativethought.com ("Reuben D. Budiardja")


Hello,

I've had crashes of PHP-4.3.2 with OCI8 extention ( configure --with-oci8=
). An=20
application using OCI8 functions will crash after about 4-5 times reload.=
 For=20
example, I copied and pasted the example here:

http://us4.php.net/manual/en/function.ocifetchinto.php

reload it about 4 times, and then it would stop working. It would not rel=
oad,=20
just do nothing, and in Apache error logs, I get:

[Sun Jul  6 17:34:41 2003] [notice] child pid 19011 exit signal Segmentat=
ion=20
fault (11)
[Sun Jul  6 17:34:41 2003] [notice] child pid 19005 exit signal Segmentat=
ion=20
fault (11)

whenever I hit reload.=20

I've asked PHP-DB list and didn't get a solution, until I tried older ver=
sion=20
of PHP. I tried PHP-4.3.1 and 4.2.3 and both worked fine with the same=20
configuration and same php.ini. I know it's supposed to work because we'v=
e=20
used this older version with other server.=20

So apparently the problem only with 4.3.2. Is this a known bug? Should I =
file=20
a bug report?=20

The oracle extention (--with-oracle) seems to work fine though. Don't kno=
w if=20
the two has any relation, except for the fact that both can be used to=20
connect to oracle database.

More information about my system:
Apache-1.3.27, recompiled and reinstalled with libpthreads, following the=
=20
direction at http://www.php.net/oci8
Oracle 9i Database (9.2.0.2)
Athlon XP 1.4 Ghz, 1GB Ram, 2GB Swap. Apache, PHP and Oracle are installe=
d in=20
the same box.
All the oracle environment variables are set in the apachetl script.

Please let me know if there is known solution to this problem, or if you =
need=20
more information about the problem.=20

Thanks
