#27620 [Com]: Apache Child Segfaults Using OCI8 and "PutEnv"

ID: 27620 Comment by: paul dot g dot smith at cantos dot com Reported By: bmuller at milchstrasse dot de Status: Feedback Bug Type: OCI8 related Operating System: RedHat ES 3 PHP Version: 5CVS-2004-03-17 (dev) New Comment: Verrrrry interesting. You can close this report now. Reinstalled on other system, it worked fine. Migrating the exact same config back to the original system this morning that now works fine as well. It looks as if the problem was that with LD_LIBRARY_PATH specified as an Apache env variable, OCIlogin would cause segfault. Which makes no sense, but there you go. Having removed that and now only specifying ORACLE_HOME as env var: it works fine. So now we're running with 4.3.8 on all our systems and we're happy again. :-) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-21 12:54:24] paul dot g dot smith at cantos dot com This is a production system. I'm not in a position to install a debug build on it unfortunately. We have to backtrack to PHP 4.3.6 for the time being on that server, can't leave it faulty, as it's a live webserver! We'll endeavour to find a sacrificial system and install and reproduce the problem on that - then we can do a backtrace - please bear with us while we pull the bits together to do that. FYI, the segfault is reproducible from PHP 4.3.8 through 4.3.9RC3 up to and including 5.0.1. We're using Oracle client 9.2.0.1.0 on RH ES3. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-20 00:22:18] rasmus@php.net Again, please provide a backtrace of that segfault. http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-19 22:34:47] paul dot g dot smith at cantos dot com We upgraded our PHP installation (running on RH 3.0ES) from 4.3.6 to 4.3.8 today. Code previously working fine is now segfaulting 99% of the time inside OCILogin(). Absolutely reproducible. PHP was built from source both times. With 4.3.6 it worked fine. With 4.3.8 the segfault is solid and reproducible. No other changes eg to the Oracle client installation. Viz it can't be blamed on Oracle, the only thing that changed was the PHP version, therefore suspicion is that it points at something broken in the new version of PHP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-17 04:11:35] derick@php.net 5$ that it crashes inside the Oracle library ;-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-17 03:37:16] tony2001@php.net You're right, ocilogon() doesn't connect, but it should generate 'ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name' error as it does for me. It shouldn't segfault anyway. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
