#34978 [Opn]: php out of memory or segmentation fault while installing sugarcrm 3.5.1a

ID: 34978 Updated by: iliaa@php.net Reported By: cdc at ccicon dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Reproducible crash Operating System: linux i386 PHP Version: 5.0.5 New Comment: When getting the error is ze1 compact mode enabled or disabled and does changing the setting alter the behaviour in any way? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-10-27 11:56:02] rrichards@php.net I can't say the exact point of failure (though its due to how the objects are linked to each other), but I recently had to get a highly modified version of this running under 5.1 and it was falling into infinite loops. Had to disable the ze1.compatibility_mode, remove the majority of explicit reference usage (xxx = & object) and use some explcit clone calls in spots. Runs stable after those changes, so not sure if this is just a PHP compatbility issue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-10-26 21:00:22] cdc at ccicon dot com From the application logs, it is apparent that many hundreds, even thousands of lines of code are executing successfully after the post before this out of memory condition occurs. I have not yet been able to trace the exact code location as I cannot step the code in my Zend Studios environment using php 5.1. It appears the the code may be dying on either and array_merge or in a mysql call. I will roll back to php 5.0.5, which I can step in the Zend debugger, and attempt to isolate the exact section of code which is generating these errors. If I can locate it, I can perhaps write a small test script to reproduce the error under the CVS snapshot release. This will likely take me a day or two to complete. Thanks for your continued attention to this problem.

For example if you pass all get/post/cookie data from the failing request to <?php phpinfo(); ?> script do you get the same error? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-10-26 16:43:04] cdc at ccicon dot com I realize that a general out of memory condition is not a bug. However, this appears to be some kind of race condition that is consumming memory. This problem in new since version 5.0.4. The same code runs fine under 5.0.4 but generates this race condition in 5.0.5 and newer. As you can see from the error message below, I already have the memlimit set at 64M. I started at 16. It makes no difference where I have it set, the race condition consumes all available memory and fails with an out of memory error. I will attempt to isolate the code in sugar which is resulting in the race condition, however, the fact remains that this code runs fine under 5.0.4 and does not run under new versions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-10-26 16:35:53] iliaa@php.net Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. Out of memory is not a bug in PHP, it simply means the memory limit needs to be increased. Try setting it to 20 megs and see if that solves the problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
