ID: 14865 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Open Bug Type: Apache related Operating System: Win XP Prof PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment:
I get a similar difficulty, but with ANY scripts no matter how small or large. 90% of the time it works perfectly, then all of a sudden PHP decides to spew a parse error or some other random phenomenon - even a single one line script will eventually suffer this fault. I experienced this when I moved to PHP 4.1.x, so reverted back to 4.0.6 which does not have the problem. Unfortunately 4.1.2 is a security fix so obviously have to upgrade, and now having to live with this problem. Not sure if its related, but 4.1.x also causes Apache's memory use to grow and grow and GROW until eventually a malloc fault occurrs. Sometimes Apache will restart, sometimes just crash. Again 4.0.6 has no such problem, just 4.1.x - had no choice but to configure Apache to self-restart every few hundred hits to overcome this memory leak. This is all with PHP as a Apache module. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-25 15:38:20] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I too am having the same problem. WinXP, Apache/1.3.22 (Win32), PHP/4.1.3-dev, mod_perl/1.26. PHP installed as a module. I haven't tried using it in CGI mode. It's not just phpinfo(). It happens regularly. Try going to: http://singularity.homedns.org/calendar/index.php Hit reload a few times, move to another month, etc. Eventually it will hose up. Spews garbage characters in the middle of the page. I understand going back to 4.0.6 seems to fix it, but I'd rather not. Any help would be......well........helpful.

PHP ver: 4.1.2 Machine: WinXP Pro HTTPD: Apache, PHP as a module When I browse to the page on my local machine (localhost) I get strange behaviour. I get a large number of instant redirects - in other words, the browser sits there redirecting itself to the same page for about 10 seconds (maybe 50 redirects in all). Finally the page either displays properly, or I get a DNS server not found error page in my browser. It's only started doing this since I upgraded from 4.0.6 to 4.1.2. I have just installed 4.2.0 RC1, but it makes no difference. If I go back to 4.0.6, it's fine. You can try this yourself. Go to: http://mvirtue.myip.org/test/index.php and see what you get. I got a friend of mine to try it from his machine, and he briefly saw the first few lines of the PHP info screen, and then was instantly redirected to a DNS error page. Often the page displays perfectly the first time you go there. It's only when you hit "Refresh" do you get the bizarre behaviour. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-18 08:50:59] [EMAIL PROTECTED] How I can get the new version? I tried to found by http://cvs.php.net/cvs.php/php4/win32 but I couldn't find the binary-Version for win32! Can you send me the new version or say me where I can find it? I don't beleve, that the but is fix, why the problem was not only with the verion 4.1.1, it was with 4.0.6 too! Greats Pascal ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-11 10:43:45] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This problem occurs only on WIN XP (Pro?) as an OS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-11 10:41:12] [EMAIL PROTECTED] As for me - i don't have any extension except imap&gd installed. Maybe something else? I found the same problem with phpmyadmin - it shows "could not found server" page in left frame (the one with database/tables list) from time to time.
