We have tackled down the problem to memory allocation issues. If PHP is
unable to allocate more memory it quits, but then the session module
still tries to save stuff, and due to the unavailability of memory, it
is unable to do so.

The interesting part is that regardless of our display_errors=off
setting, this session error still gets printed out to the browser (the
mem allocation problem is only present in our logs). The session module
should not print errors if display_errors is off.

We also experience the same error with PHP 4.3.7 with Apache 1.3.31. We
have the following session settings in .htaccess:

<IfModule mod_php4.c>
   php_value session.cache_expire    200000
   php_value session.gc_maxlifetime  200000
   php_value session.cookie_domain   ".weblabor.hu"
   php_value session.cookie_lifetime 2000000
   php_value session.auto_start      0
   php_value session.save_handler    user
   php_value session.cache_limiter   none
</IfModule>

Our session handlers store data in a database, and are set with
session_set_save_handler() in userland code. The error is the exact one
reported by the bug opener.

I have PHP 4.3.7, and we get this error, running a Drupal 4.4.

Get the latest stable CVS snapshot. And don't reopen closed bugs unless
you can still reproduce it with the snapshot..

Is there any way that I can apply this patch to php4isapi.dll?
