#20609 [Opn->Bgs]: PHP fatal error causes Apache to respawn

ID: 20609 Updated by: iliaa@php.net Reported By: baldrick@vcdhelp.com -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Apache related Operating System: Windows 2000 PHP Version: 4CVS-2002-11-24 (dev) New Comment: Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. Looks like your system is running out of memory, hence crashing. It is failing to allocate memory, when that happens PHP halts execution on terminates the script. Apache after unexpected script termination may try 3-4 times to retry the request. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-24 09:10:41] baldrick@vcdhelp.com I'm running Apache 1.3.26, PHP 4.4.0-dev(as a sapi module) and MySQL3.23.51 on a dual processor(AMD MP 1800) Windows 2000 server with 1 GB RAM. PHP causes this fatal error every 5-15 minute: FATAL: erealloc(): Unable to allocate 1441792 bytes and it causes Apache to respawn and kills all current connections(the apache child process dies and restarts). I have tried with older PHP versions(4.2.3,4.2.4-dev,4.3RC1) and with no extra modules but with same result. I use the php.ini-recommended with no changes. /Baldrick at www.vcdhelp.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=20609&edit=1
