#48094 [NEW]: Two graceful restarts are needed to enable PHP

From: albegley at apple dot com Operating system: all PHP version: 5.2.9 PHP Bug Type: Apache2 related Bug description: Two graceful restarts are needed to enable PHP Description: ------------ A second graceful restart is needed to enable PHP. 1. Start apache with mod_php disabled. 2. Edit httpd.conf and enable the mod_php LoadModule directive. 3. Do a graceful restart of Apache. 4. Note that .php files are downloaded to client rather than being properly interpreted. 5. Do a second graceful restart of Apache. 6. Note that .php files are handled properly. Others have been reporting this for some time, with older versions of PHP, for example: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/php-dev/3591788 Expected result: ---------------- Other Apache plugins initialize themselves after a single graceful restart. It appears the php plugin is relying on its own static variables instead of using Apache data structures. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48094&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=fixedcvs Fixed in CVS and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48094&r=mysqlcfg
