Package: libapache2-mod-php5 Version: 5.3.3-7 Severity: important
Getting intermittent Fatal Error; seems to be the problem reported here http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=50027 in that the problem is intermittent, and also causes other php applications to produce fatal errors. Therefore, seems to be an internal php/apache problem causing cross infection of separate processes. We were on php 5.2 on Ubuntu 8.04. Upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 and php 5.3.2 and immediately hit this problem. Decided to switch to Debian 6 as it supports 5.3.3 which fixes a number of bugs in 5.3.2, but still getting this problem although it now only occurs after 1-2 days. The error always occurs at the same point in the code, but after refreshing a few times, the problem goes away. Inserted debug logging to file to track where the error is occurring and isolated the problem to the following statement:- $this->paths=array_merge($this->paths,$path); The log showed the array $this->paths to be empty both before and after this statement, and the array $path to contain data. Changed the statement to be:- if (empty($this->paths)) { $this->paths=$path; } else { $this->paths=array_merge($this->paths,$path); } The statement still failed to set $this->paths. So in a final attempt at a work around, we changed the code to:- if (empty($this->paths)) { foreach($path as $key=>$value) { $this->paths[$key]=$value; } } else { $this->paths=array_merge($this->paths,$path); } This seemed to work, except that the problem now occurs in a different piece of code. Again, after inserting and checking debugging, it appears that the affected php statement does not complete, does not return the expected data so causing a fatal error in subsequent code. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0 APT prefers proposed-updates APT policy: (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libapache2-mod-php5 depends on: ii apache2-mpm-prefork 2.2.16-6 Apache HTTP Server - traditional n ii apache2.2-common 2.2.16-6 Apache HTTP Server common files ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.5-6 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcomerr2 1.41.12-2 common error description library ii libdb4.8 4.8.30-2 Berkeley v4.8 Database Libraries [ ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.8.3+dfsg-4 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries - k ii libk5crypto3 1.8.3+dfsg-4 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries - C ii libkrb5-3 1.8.3+dfsg-4 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libmagic1 5.04-5 File type determination library us ii libonig2 5.9.1-1 Oniguruma regular expressions libr ii libpcre3 8.02-1.1 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii libqdbm14 1.8.77-4 QDBM Database Libraries [runtime] ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8o-4squeeze1 SSL shared libraries ii libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-2 GNOME XML library ii mime-support 3.48-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap ii php5-common 5.3.3-7 Common files for packages built fr ii tzdata 2010o-1 time zone and daylight-saving time ii ucf 3.0025+nmu1 Update Configuration File: preserv ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages libapache2-mod-php5 recommends: ii php5-cli 5.3.3-7 command-line interpreter for the p Versions of packages libapache2-mod-php5 suggests: pn php-pear <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
