Bug #15836 Updated: Bug #11162 pfsockopen closes connection after script finishes !

ID: 15836 Updated by: strange@unicon.ru Reported By: feddy@unicon.ru Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: FreeBSD PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment: I know, that p* functions opens 1 connection per process. But in any case p* functions should not close this connection, but hold it opened in hashed table for next time, same script will be executed on this apache process, isnt it ? Unfortunately this doen not happend ;( PHP really closes the socket right after script end ;( And in tests apache was configured like: MinSpareServers 1 MaxSpareServers 1 StartServers 1 MaxClients 1 That means that only 2 apache processes are in memory, (parent and a child) and only one of them handles php scripts. But all tests faied, as i talk. any pfsockopen connections are closed after end of script ;( Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-02 13:44:13] derick@php.net php.net@domainofdarkness.com 29-Jan-2001 03:26 OK, WRT to the p* functions opening a new connection when one already exists. It is my understanting that (under Apache anyways) this is on a per-process basis. If you do a 'ps auxw|grep httpd' on your server you will see more than one process. What p* does is make a p-connection on one of those processes only, the one that actually handles your request. Chances are that when you hit the page again it will be answered by a different process. I'm guessing if you keep hitting reload you'll get around to the original process again and there will be no error message or second connection open. Anyhow, this is true of all p* functions; they open not one connection per server, but one connection per server _process_. Hope this explains something (it's from the manual at http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pfsockopen.php) I'm keeping this open as a doc problem though, cause the documentation is very skimmy.

Connection, opened by pfsockopen(), is closing when the script is finishes. (tested by just simple netcat -l and by multithreaded java chat server) PHP Version 4.1.1 Apache/1.3.20 FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15836&edit=1
