#23300 [NEW]: Sporadic PHP page load failures with "Initialized PHP Module" in error log

From: folsomke at plu dot edu Operating system: Tru64 4.0f PHP version: 4.3.1 PHP Bug Type: iPlanet related Bug description: Sporadic PHP page load failures with "Initialized PHP Module" in error log I am configuring PHP 4.3.1 with the following: ./configure \ --with-mysql \ --with-nsapi=/apps/netscape/server4/ \ --enable-track-vars \ --with-ldap=/usr/local \ --without-pear \ --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl LDAP is the Netscape 3.0 SDK. SSL is OpenSSL 0.9.7. The web server is iPlanet Enterprise server version 4.1SP9. The compiler is cc (though I also tried using gcc 2.95.3 and had the same problem as reported below). The compile and install of PHP work well. I've modified my web server config files according to instructions in the PHP manual for version 4.x of the iPlanet web server. The web server starts fine and serves up PHP pages with no problems most the time. But, occasionally, upon trying to load a PHP page, my web browser will report "The document contained no data." Loading the document a second time usually brings it up normally. Looking at the web server error log shows the following message is reported when the page fails to load: php4_init reports: Initialized PHP Module It looks like the PHP page request is causing the iPlanet web server process to crash. When the watchdog process re-starts the web server process, the PHP module is re-initialized. I have seen some older references to this same problem in the bug archive, but these have not indicated any solutions. Thanks much for your help. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=23300&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23300&r=gnused
