PHP 4.0 Bug #6229: Access violation after php.exe execution is complete

From: chris-php-bugs@digitaria.com Operating system: Windows 2000 SP1 PHP version: 4.0.1pl2 PHP Bug Type: Reproduceable crash Bug description: Access violation after php.exe execution is complete There appears to be some sort of library conflict with 4.0.1pl2 and Windows 2000 (running as a CGI). I get errors like those below every time php.exe executes: Application popup: php.exe - Application Error : The instruction at "0x77fca8ac" referenced memory at "0x00080101". The memory could not be "written". (The instruction address here may vary by about 16 bytes; the memory address has always been 0x00080101 or 0x00080100) Application popup: php.exe - Application Error : The instruction at "0x77fca9ea" referenced memory at "0x00000010". The memory could not be "read". The requests are in fact processed correctly and there is no trace of a message in the PHP error logs. Before applying Service Pack 1, there was a good chance (5-50%) that a CGI error ("FATAL: erealloc(): Unable to allocate (a number between 15 and 30K) bytes") would be sent to the browser. Post Service Pack 1, I have yet to see the CGI error but the application error log message is generated for each request. Our client should be moving to a Linux/Apache setup within 2 weeks but I think it'd be a good idea to investigate W2k stability in any case. I can provide pcAnywhere access to the remote server to a trusted individual.
