note 86768 added to function.proc-close

I have the same problem with a return code of -1 being returned because the --enable-sigchild flag is set as ashnazg at php dot net mentioned. Unfortunely I'm told this is in the debian package, and we can't change the PHP install to fix this. I've been able to work around this as follows, it adds an extra layer, which is not ideal, but in circumstances where you can't change the install it's better than nothing. I made a shell script as follows: #!/bin/bash eval $1 echo $? 1>&3 Basically that executes the argument of the script and echos the return code to pipe 3. I defined pipe 3 in descriptorspec for passing the return status back to PHP, doing an end run around this "will not fix" situation. Naturally this is no use on a windows system, but perhaps the windows package isn't compiled with the --enable-sigchild flag set? ---- Server IP: 202.89.58.1 Probable Submitter: 203.96.151.36 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.proc-close.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/86768 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86768/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86768/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86768/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86768/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86768/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86768/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86768 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/86768 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
