Strange Error in php 4.0 B3/B2

Hello It seems that I have come across a rather serious problem with PHP 4.0 B2/B3 which seems to cause the Apache's Main Process to die. The software config of the server is: FreeBSD 3.3, Apache 1.3.9 Running PHP 4.0 B3 (use to run apache 1.3.6 with php 4.0 B2, and same problem occured). Basically the problem is this that Apache's main process dies leaving all of the remaining children in sbwait state effectively stopping apache from serving any pages until HTTPD is restarted. At the same moment the main process died my PHP error log has registered the following error message (it is the only error message in the log since it was cleared 2 days ago): PHP Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in [no active file] on line 0 As you can see there is no reference to a php script, proper line number or even a timestamp which makes this problem impossible to isolate. My question is if anyone has encountered a similar problem before and has remedies for it or atleast knows how to track this problem. Ilia
