Bug #17591 Updated: segfault when trying to access a global variable

ID: 17591 Updated by: mfischer@php.net Reported By: dschmidt@informationsgesellschaft.com -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Linux (Suse 7.3) PHP Version: 4.2.1 New Comment: Are you using objects and circular references? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-04 06:12:58] dschmidt@informationsgesellschaft.com After the Upgrade from php 4.0.6 to php 4.2.1 our Application crashes (httpd segmentation fault) We used the dgb Debugger (dd.cron.ru) to figure out where it happens: Inside a function when trying to make a global variable available with the global statement (global $xyz;). We were not able to reproduce that error inside a short script. It only occurs in our (complex) Application (with a lot of classes) and only under certain circumstances. after that, we tried to get a backtrace (we followed the guide in http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace.php). After compiling php with --enable-debug we were not able to reproduce the error. Instead we got a lot of messages in the httpd-error_log: ------------------------- zend_language_scanner.c(4363) : Freeing 0x0825CDC4 (1 bytes), script=/usr/local/httpd/htdocs/AdditorDev/Website/page.php Last leak repeated 1 time ./zend_execute.c(1999) : Freeing 0x081EF674 (12 bytes), script=/usr/local/httpd/htdocs/AdditorDev/Website/page.php Last leak repeated 3 times ./zend_execute.c(2002) : Freeing 0x081EF454 (25 bytes), script=/usr/local/httpd/htdocs/AdditorDev/Website/page.php zend_variables.c(106) : Actual location (location was relayed) Last leak repeated 1 time zend_hash.c(260) : Freeing 0x08493A7C (48 bytes), script=/usr/local/httpd/htdocs/AdditorDev/Website/Additor/XmlConnect.php Last leak repeated 597 times -------------------------- I don't know what this means.
