Now I got the same again, but instead of an "|" I got "h".
Maybe the server is trying to tell me something? ;-)

I do not have access to the Apache error log, only to the domain error
log
And there's nothing about this issue.

Subject: [PHP-INSTALL] Corrupted PHP Pages

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is the correct list. Otherwise I will bother the
users list.
But I think this is a very special problem. Here is what I got:

The problem is regarding the following URLs:
 
http://h41111.www4.hp.com/hps/carepack/me/eng/
http://h41111.www4.hp.com/hps/carepack/uk/eng/
http://h41111.www4.hp.com/gomobile/de/ger/
http://h41111.www4.hp.com/gomobile/ie/eng/
....all languages!
 
These pages are based on PHP includes (Header, Leftnav, Footer). We only
have problems in the included part of the page not in the content bit
which is mostly pure HTML. We are using an array ($lang['whatever'] =
"translation";) to store the different language translations for each
country (selecting different language includes will change the
language). So, and the problem now is that intermittently we get instead
of the correct $lang[] text just a "|" (pipe) displayed exactly in that
placed where we use that array to display the text. Accesing the same
page in the same time via a proxy or another PC may result in the same
error BUT in most cases it just works at it should be.

I assume therefore there is a problem with one of the server, because
this URL is using a load balancer (2 servers behind). I checked every
server seperately but as one of our problems is that this problem only
appears sporadic I didn't had any luck. Both servers are fine (maybe
from another PC/Location not).

May you give me advice, how we can figure out where the problem is
located? I think it should not be problem of a coding view of point to
use arrays for the language translations. Or what do you think? Is it
more possible that it is a server problem (Apache, HPUX, PHP) or is it a
problem with the PHP script? Did somebody reported such an problem
before? Can you imagine how this can happen? Any hint can help me! Do
you think it's either the Webserver, PHP or any other module?

As well the problem do not appear on the staging server
http://h41111.bbn-stage.europe.hp.com/hps/carepack/me/eng/
http://h41111.bbn-stage.europe.hp.com/gomobile/ie/eng/
...

You may also write to me directly - thanks!

Regards,
Sebastian
