#33760 [Bgs->Opn]: cURL needs to implement CRYPTO_callback functions to prevent locking

ID: 33760 User updated by: eja40 at cam dot ac dot uk -Reported By: dev at null dot com +Reported By: eja40 at cam dot ac dot uk -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: cURL related Operating System: Redhat 9 PHP Version: 5.0.4 New Comment: Sorry I don't know how to patch it myself. However cURL insist that this must be implemented at the highest thread level - it cannot be implemented in libcurl (I don't understand why). Therefore it must be implemented in the PHP code. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-19 00:56:53] sniper@php.net This goes to /dev/null unless you come up with: a) real email address b) patch And I think this is actually something for Curl to fix, not PHP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-19 00:48:46] eja40 at cam dot ac dot uk Description: ------------ I am experiencing problems when using multi-threaded cURL requests. When I have more than about 5 threads connecting using HTTPS, all subsequent threads fail to connect (regardless of the timeout used). I presume this is because PHP hasn't implemented the CRYPTO_callback functions to prevent OpenSSL locking. Sorry I have no idea how to implement this fix myself - but the solution to the problem is elaborated here: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2004-06/0086.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33760&edit=1
