Public bug reported: Binary package hint: libapache2-mod-php5
After installing the 5.2.1-0ubuntu1.5 security updates for feisty, the PHP session handler seems to be causing segfaults when accessing phpmyadmin. apache2 is logging lots of: [Fri Nov 30 15:54:13 2007] [notice] child pid 3198 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Fri Nov 30 15:54:13 2007] [notice] child pid 3199 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Fri Nov 30 15:54:13 2007] [notice] child pid 3200 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Fri Nov 30 15:58:58 2007] [notice] child pid 3346 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Fri Nov 30 15:59:33 2007] [notice] child pid 3197 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Fri Nov 30 15:59:33 2007] [notice] child pid 3353 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Fri Nov 30 15:59:34 2007] [notice] child pid 3355 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Fri Nov 30 15:59:37 2007] [notice] child pid 3356 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Fri Nov 30 16:03:57 2007] [notice] child pid 3377 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) I've run strace on php5-cli (as www-data user) and the output of that seems to indicate the segfault occurs after PHP opens a file in the sessions directory, /var/lib/php5. Trace is attached. The permissions on that directory are: drwx-wx-wt 2 root root 20480 2007-11-30 16:09 /var/lib/php5/ Downgrading to libapache2-mod-php5 5.2.1-0ubuntu1.4 makes the segfault not occur. ** Affects: php5 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- session handler causes segfault https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172990 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
