#25942 [Opn]: When non-local OCILogon call fails, PEAR::SOAP enters recursive loop

ID: 25942 User updated by: jpatrin at pnicorp dot com Reported By: jpatrin at pnicorp dot com Status: Open Bug Type: PEAR related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.3.3 New Comment: I have just tested it with mysql:// instead of oci8:// and the same thing happens. This looks more and more like a problem with PEAR::SOAP's error handling function. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-10-21 19:57:21] jpatrin at pnicorp dot com I completely forgot to mention that if I set my own error handling function for the duration of the connect that this all works fine. This is shown in the example code given. (This is very strange to me as I'm using the PEAR DB class, which does its own error handling.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-10-21 19:54:39] jpatrin at pnicorp dot com Description: ------------ Using PEAR::SOAP 0.8RC2. When a SOAP Server class method calls a method (in the case I tested, it is the PEAR::DB::connect method) which calls OCILogon and it fails, the SOAP server enters an infinite loop (after the server function ends) and segfaults the apache child process. The infinite loop seems to be in Base::_serializeValue (logging the values, names, and types shows repetition of the same thing over and over). If I do an OCILogon IN the server function, the soap server catches the error fine and returns it. Another possible bug. If I do the OCILogon IN the server function and the length of the name of the server class and the length of the name of the function called add up to more than 29, the same segfault problem happens. For an example, try commenting out the OCILogon code (and commenting the PEAR::DB code) in the abcde function and adding 'y' to the class name. None of this seems to happen when using mysql.
