#30282 [Fbk]: Setting session.serialize_handler to none in apache config segfaults PHP

ID: 30282 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: daniele at orlandi dot com Status: Feedback Bug Type: Apache2 related Operating System: SuSE Linux 9.1 PHP Version: 4.3.9 New Comment: Derick, that's the bug I was talking about a month ago. Here's the patch for it: http://tony2001.phpclub.net/dev/tmp/session.diff It fixes the problem, but I don't like it - I'd prefer "fixing" session extension instead, but it seems that Sascha doesn't read emails anymore.

I incorrectly put "none" in apache's configuration file for session.serialize_handler. Starting the session, PHP segfaults; it may be a missing NULL check. php_value session.serialize_handler none [pid 31996] open("/tmp/sess_de475dfe390c0d01f35536633634db4a", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0600) = 28 [pid 31996] flock(28, LOCK_EX) = 0 [pid 31996] fcntl64(28, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0 [pid 31996] fstat64(28, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 [pid 31996] pread(28, "", 0, 0) [pid 31996] --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) --- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30282&edit=1
