 New Comment:

Just posting to suggest that it would be nice to have this workaround
posted in the manual for popen and other system command issuing
functions.  I resorted to blanking out the page to keep users from
clicking a second link before the first finished loading to avoid a
server hang.

This workaround eliminates the need for that very clunky "fix" but it
took me quite awhile to find it because I was digging through the
manual.  It might be a good idea to link the manual entries to the
related bug reports.

I'm using Apache 2.0.49 PHP 4.3.6 (upgrading soon) and Windows 2000
Pro.

I had experienced the same issue, php4&5, winXP, apache2. Workaround is
fixing the problem.

Thanks,
Andi

My initial tests show that the workaround is doing the trick! I will
send out a message to have more users test this and report back. Thanks
for pointing this out.

Workaround:  use session_write_close() before the exec.  

You can use session_start() after the call if you still need to write
session values.  Reading doesn't require an open session.

I've tested this somewhat, so please post how you get on.

I am having the simillar problem but with FreeBSD 4.7
All the page with session_strat() hang, if the one of the page with
session_start() start hangging
