#47882 [NEW]: calls to mysql_connect crash

From: ldjones at us dot ibm dot com Operating system: Windows XP SP3 PHP version: 5.2.9 PHP Bug Type: MySQL related Bug description: calls to mysql_connect crash Description: ------------ I am wondering why Bug 46842 was closed with no resolution? The status shows as "Bogus". However, I just bought a new laptop and installed MySQL 5.1.33, Apache 2.2.11, and PHP 5.2.9-1. Then I couldn't run anymore because Apache dies with the exact same problem reported with Bug 46842. In other words, it's not bogus at all. I configured php.ini the same as I did on my old laptop (Apache 2.2.8, MySQL 5.0.22, PHP 5.2.5) by turning on CURL, MySQL, MySQLi, and OpenSSL. By the way, I got by the problem by following the advice of one of the people who posted on Bug 46842 - I copied the libmysql.dll from PHP 5.2.5 and overwrote the one supplied by PHP 5.2.9, but I only did that because I can't afford down time. I would gladly undo that change if someone would fix the problem. Thanks, Lonnie Jones Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $dbhost = 'localhost'; $dbuser = 'root'; $dbpass = 'password'; $conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die ('Error connecting to mysql: '.mysql_error()); echo 'Connected successfully'; mysql_close($conn); ?> Expected result: ---------------- Connected successfully. Actual result: -------------- The browser says Apache can no longer function and will close. Apache doesn't close, but I don't get a connection either. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47882&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=fixedcvs Fixed in CVS and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47882&r=mysqlcfg
