#37393 [NEW]: PHP Crashes when MySQL is not running but control socket exists

From: jesse at jesterpm dot net Operating system: Gentoo Linux x86 PHP version: 5.1.4 PHP Bug Type: Reproducible crash Bug description: PHP Crashes when MySQL is not running but control socket exists Description: ------------ I did not have time to fully test this, but it appers that if a PHP script tries to access a MySQL server that is not running, yet still has a control socket (Say the mysqld crashed), PHP will segfault. I've come to this assumption after spending a considerable amount of time trying to find out why PHP was segfaulting. After running out of ideas, I looked at the mysql server and found that it was not running. When I restarted mysql, it complained about the unix domain socket still existing. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37393&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37393&r=mysqlcfg
