HTH ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-13 15:45:20] rudy dot metzger at xs4all dot nl Used DB versions MySQL-devel-4.1.7-0 MySQL-shared-4.1.7-0 MySQL-server-4.1.7-0 MySQL-client-4.1.7-0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-13 15:42:01] rudy dot metzger at xs4all dot nl Description: ------------ When connecting to a database, then forking off a new child, the database connection will be terminated (disconnected) when the child exits. I have the feeling that at the "cleanup" of the child process the database connection is closed. This should not be the case because the master process might still use it. This is not the case with the mysql extension, only with mysqli. With the mysql extension, you might be required to give the optional parameter "open new session" on the connect. at least this is what I did. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php function ping_db( $res, $msg ) { if ( mysqli_ping($res) ) echo getmypid()." $msg: still alive\n"; else echo getmypid()." $msg: died\n"; } function SigChild( $signal ) { while ( ($pid=pcntl_wait($status,WNOHANG)) > 0 ) { if ( !pcntl_wifexited($status) ) echo "Collected killed pid $pid\n"; else echo "Collected pid $pid\n"; } } declare(ticks=1); pcntl_signal( SIGCHLD, 'SigChild' ); $res = mysqli_connect('localhost','zpc','zpc'); ping_db($res,'after connect'); $pid = pcntl_fork(); ping_db($res,'right after fork'); if ( !$pid ) { // --- the slave echo "child sleep\n"; sleep(5); echo "child exiting\n"; exit(0); } ping_db($res,'after fork'); echo "master sleep\n"; sleep(10); ping_db($res,'after sleep'); while ( ($pid=pcntl_wait($status)) > 0 ) { if ( !pcntl_wifexited($status) ) echo "Collected killed pid $pid\n"; else echo "Collected pid $pid\n"; } mysqli_close( $res ); ?> Expected result: ---------------- The database connection in the master should not have terminated. Actual result: -------------- 6311 after connect: still alive 6313 right after fork: still alive child sleep 6311 right after fork: still alive 6311 after fork: still alive master sleep child exiting Collected pid 6313 6311 after sleep: died In the last line you can see that the connection died (6311 is master, 6313 is child) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=31538&edit=1
