PHP 4.0 Bug #10195: https takes forever and a day to return when php is loaded in Apache

From: Clement.Ong@shinetech.com Operating system: Linux Red Hat 7.0 PHP version: 4.0.2 PHP Bug Type: OpenSSL related Bug description: https takes forever and a day to return when php is loaded in Apache I am running Apache 3.1.19 with mod_ssl-2.8.2-1.3.19 and OpenSSl-0.9.6 for SSL functionality. Using https from my Internet Explorer 5.0 browser causes the requested web page to be returned after a very long wait, .eg more than 20 minutes maybe longer. Subsequent retrieval takes as long too. If I have PHP disabled by removing the LoadModule and AddModule directive https works immediately however when I reinstate the PHP modules I would experience the problem again. Other scenario :- 1. retrieved a https page with my browser without PHP (response received immediately) 2. modify httpd.conf to enable PHP 3. restarts Apache 4. starts a *NEW* browser to retrieve https(waits very long) 5. using the same browser session in step 1 to retrieve again using https(response received immediately) Also noticed in the Apache errors_log file the following error :- [Fri Apr 6 11:46:30 2001] [notice] child pid 2654 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Fri Apr 6 11:46:36 2001] [notice] child pid 2668 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Fri Apr 6 11:46:36 2001] [notice] child pid 2667 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) This is how I configure PHP :- ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs \ --with-config-file-path=/etc/php \ --with-mysql=/usr \ --with-java=/usr/java/jdk1.3 \ --with-ldap \ --with-imap \ --with-curl \ --with-gd \ --enable-versioning -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=10195&edit=1
