PHP 5.0.5 (Apache2 handler) Apache 2.0.55 Windows XP Pro v2002 SP2 (Windows NT 5.1 build 2600) The way I've figured it out is that if the tick function (registered by register_tick_function()) is called (N ticks have gone by), PHP/Apache crash. I'm not sure if this applies to everyone, but I also found that the Apache child process would not fully initialize after crashing. The new child process had to be killed manually, and the next child would finish initialization. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-04-18 20:10:49] motin at demomusic dot nu Noticed typo: Of course I meant 83 instead of 85. Also, too bad the post got screwed up, with doubled linebreaks in the example. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-04-18 19:58:56] motin at demomusic dot nu I do not have the skills to dig into the appropriate code, unfortunately. Possible workarounds: 1. Switch to Linux :) - If not wholly, do it by installing the free VMWare GSX Server and build up a server in there. Recommended because learning how to configure a Linux server is a great skill that all php-developers will gain on learning. 2. PHP in cgi-mode is not affected, only php when running as an apache_module. I wanted to use ticks only for debugging purposes, and what I did while on windows was to configure httpd.conf so that accessing my site on port 85 would run php in cgi-mode instead of as a module. Here is a simplified section of my httpd.conf for this: # Make sure no modules are loaded before VirtualHost-containers Listen 80 <VirtualHost *:80> LoadFile "/Dev/Server/php5/php5apache2.dll" LoadModule php5_module "/Dev/Server/php5/php5apache2.dll" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php DocumentRoot /path ServerName localhost <IfModule mod_php5.c> php_admin_value display_errors 0 php_admin_value error_reporting 7 </IfModule> </VirtualHost> Listen 83 <VirtualHost *:83> RemoveType .php Action php5-script "/php/php-cgi.exe" AddHandler php5-script .php DocumentRoot /path ServerName localhost # php_admin_value and php_value is not possible in cgi-mode. These values has to be entered in php.ini # This section I found when trying to configure this myself back then. Do not know if it is needed # <Directory /path/to/php/> # Options +ExecCGI +FollowSymLinks # AllowOverride None # Order allow,deny # Allow from all # </Directory> </VirtualHost> Cheers! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-08-10 20:02:22] ras...@php.net You are probably right that the tick stuff is broken in ZTS mode. But I doubt anybody is all that interested in fixing it as it is a very fringe feature in a very fringe environment. You can always hope, but chances are you will need to dig into the code yourself and send us a patch to get any movement on this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
