Bug #11069: can't spawn new php after a few hours (mem leak?)

From: mike@kristopeit.com Operating system: win98 PHP version: 4.0.5 PHP Bug Type: Apache related Bug description: can't spawn new php after a few hours (mem leak?) i run a web based game with a development server that gets around 100k hits a day. after upgrading to apache 1.3.19 and php 4.0.5 and mysql 3.23.38 the server suddenly stops working and returns "internal server error" after a few hours, and apaches error.log reads "can't spawn child process" i am using php as CGI now. i used to use the module, but when i use the module now, the server works fine for about 10 minutes and then stops working completely (doesn't even return 500 internal server error) these are the only 3 programs that are running and this didn't happen before i upgraded all the software. i am using persistant connections on the db which i believe may be linked to the problem. -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=11069&edit=1
