#31275 [Bgs->Opn]: PHP Crashes randomly

ID: 31275 User updated by: smartychan at hotmail dot com Reported By: smartychan at hotmail dot com -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: Reproducible crash Operating System: Windows XP Professional PHP Version: 4CVS-2005-01-10 New Comment: I already tried reformatting my computer and also reinstalling apache/php many times, but still the same problem. Do you know if it is a php/apache configuration problem, or is it a network problem (DNS/Virtual Server/etc.)? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-13 04:28:07] sniper@php.net I can't reproduce this so it must be something wrong with your system. Try reinstall? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-10 00:44:27] smartychan at hotmail dot com Thanks for the snapshot, but I uninstall my original PHP, then install my snapshot manually. I copied php4ts.dll to windows folder... Used php.ini-recommended Configured doc_root in php.ini Made php.ini readable by everyone Kept existing Apache configuration with php. I run the abc.php page again, but the error still remains, and the same error page displays. Is it maybe my incorrect configuration with apache and php that makes the problem? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-09 23:21:12] sniper@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-09 20:20:55] smartychan at hotmail dot com Also, this is very important i just realized: If I do NOT log onto windows. (just leave it at the log in screen), my server and php and stuff will start normally. AND, the php will NOT CRASH. If I log on, the error will crash php. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-09 17:35:56] smartychan at hotmail dot com I don't think I can provide anymore information. However, I can give some recent summary of information. 2 Days ago, I reformatted my computer. Now, it is C and D drive both NTFS file system. I only installed 2 things on it so far. Apache 2, php 4.3. I installed Apache 2 using the installer, and I configured the Document Root and Directory Index only. Then, I installed php using the installer. I configured Apache 2 and php by adding these to the appropriate apache places: ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/" Action application/x-httpd-php /php/php.exe AddType application/x-httpd-php .php Then, I made 2 files only in my directory: (this file is called abc.php) <html> <head> </head> <body> <?php include 'uselessfacts.htm'; ?> </body> </html> the second file, uselessfacts.htm, is 154kb big and contains 800 lines of text or so. The result was that the website crashed when viewed in IE 6. When viewed in Firefox, the page loaded parts, and when refreshed, loaded the entire webpage. IT did not totally crash in firefox. When crashes, this is what happens: The page cannot be displayed The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings. ... Cannot find server or DNS Error Internet Explorer I know it is not my DNS problem, because it crashes when type localhost/abc.php in my URL. Apache also never crashes, except when used with PHP. I only have those 2 things installed on a fresh computer right now. My apache and php and program files are on C drive, and my website files are on the D drive. However, I tried moving the files on the D drive to the C drive, and the error still remained. Therefore, I think it is a configuration problem. I think this is really weird, and I tried searching the internet for a similar problem, but nothing came up. Error 9845 is the closest I can get, but it does not match my error completely.
