From: holger@marzen.de Operating system: Linux, 2.0.38, libc5 (!) PHP version: 4.0.1pl2 PHP Bug Type: Session related Bug description: Garbage collector loops I uses squirrel-mail, a webmail system (www.squirrelmail.org). Whenever a session_start() is invoked and the garbage collector starts (can always reproduced with "session.gc_probability = 100" then the script loops until it is aborted beacuse of max. execution time. php4 is linked statically to apache 1.3.12 + ssl. This error only occurs on a libc5-based system, kernel 2.0.38. On another glibc-based system, kernel 2.2.16, there is no problem. My workaround: session.gc_probability = 0 Regards Holger Marzen holger@marzen.de
