#25919 [Com]: Sometimes imagecreatefromjpeg stops

ID: 25919 Comment by: stemplar444 at yahoo dot com Reported By: agnermadsen at hotmail dot com Status: Bogus Bug Type: GD related Operating System: FreeBSD PHP Version: 4.3.3 New Comment: My server hang, when the images contained more than 1'609'092 pixels. It was not a question of file size. I found this bug report and corrected my memory settings accordingly to fix this behavior. However, I disagree with iliaa@php.net, that this is no bug. In my opinion, proper API providers have to have a proper error handling. So in this case, the GD library or PHP needs to check for enough memory while executing a function. And since this is so well known, such an error handling would maybe prevent all those bogus bug reports in this area. simon. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-10-28 10:38:34] iliaa@php.net Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php It is quite likely you are reaching the memory limit and PHP terminates. Image manipulation is a very memory intensive process. I'd suggest raising the memory limit higher to something like 20 megabytes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-10-24 05:40:12] agnermadsen at hotmail dot com memory_limit 8M http://www.ringsborg-madsen.dk/nytsite/phpinfo.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-10-23 22:24:10] iliaa@php.net What is your memory limit set to? You are probably reaching the memory limit and PHP terminates. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-10-23 03:47:06] agnermadsen at hotmail dot com Configure: './configure' '--enable-versioning' '--enable-memory-limit' '--with-layout=GNU' '--with-zlib-dir=/usr' '--disable-all' '--with-regex=php' '--disable-cli' '--with-apxs=/usr/local/sbin/apxs' '--with-bz2=/usr' '--enable-ctype' '--enable-exif' '--enable-ftp' '--with-gd' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--enable-gd-jis-conv' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr/local' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local' '--with-png-dir=/usr/local' '--with-xpm-dir=/usr/local' '--with-imap=/usr/local' '--with-imap-ssl=/usr/local' '--with-mcrypt=/usr/local' '--with-mysql=/usr/local' '--enable-overload' '--with-pcre-regex=yes' '--enable-posix' '--enable-session' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-tokenizer' '--enable-xml' '--with-expat-dir=/usr/local' '--with-zlib=yes' '--prefix=/usr/local' 'i386-portbld-freebsd4.8' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-10-20 06:41:45] sniper@php.net What is the configure line you used to configure PHP?
