Bug #14453 Updated: session_start() provokes a crash of php/apache

ID: 14453 Updated by: sander Reported By: nfankhauser@swissonline.ch Status: Critical Bug Type: Session related Operating System: win2k PHP Version: 4.1.0 New Comment: Reproduced with the final 4.1.0 on Windows 2000 with Apache 1.3.22. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-14 09:16:48] nfankhauser@swissonline.ch hi I found the cause for these crashes: If in the php.ini is a wrong path for the session files, php crashes without further notice, whereas php 4.0.6 reported this when trying to start a session with session_start(): Warning: open(./tmp\sess_7a7c42ff822a8016bb5d7b5625a4bc89, O_RDWR) failed: m (2) in c:\some\path\file.php on line 7 this should be adressed in a future release, because crashes for such reasons are not acceptible (even more if an older version behaved correctly!). regards n. fankhauser ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-12 08:37:28] nfankhauser@swissonline.ch <? session_start(); ?> this script will cause php/apache to crash. used configuration: php 4.10 / win32 as SAPI apache 1.3.20 / win32 unfortunately, I don't have the time now to further investigate the problem... please contact me if there are any workarounds / solutions for this problem! regards n. fankhauser ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=14453&edit=1
