 New Comment:

I have a similar problem, it seems at I can't concurrently call the
same page with proc_open until the first proc_open returns. It looks
like proc_open is running through a critical section even though it is
opening separate processes.

>From experience it is like php is using the same pipes for each
proc_open and can't continue to the next proc_open until the original
as ended. I would normally use temporary files instead of pipes – but
this makes life difficult.

Same problem with 5.1.3RC4-dev (latest CVS snapshot at the moment) on
Linux/i386.

I independently reproduced the bug with the following piece of code:

error_reporting(E_ALL);
$spec = array(
        0 => array("pipe", "r"),
        1 => array("pipe", "w"),
        2 => array("pipe", "w")
        );
$p1 = proc_open("/bin/cat", $spec, $fd1);
$p2 = proc_open("/bin/cat", $spec, $fd2);

fclose($fd1[0]);
fclose($fd1[1]);
fclose($fd1[2]);
echo "closing p1... "; flush();
proc_close($p1);
echo "success\n"; flush();

This code hangs in proc_close(). This doesn't happen if the second
proc_open() is commented.

Although the parent process seems to correctly close all pipes, the
child process still remains blocked in read(0,...).

Description:
------------
(i am french, sorry for my bad english)

1. Open two processes with proc_open()
2. Try to close them : it works only if you close the second one first,
otherwise it hangs

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
echo('Opening process 1'."\n");
$process1 = proc_open('cat', array(0 => array('pipe', 'r'), 1 =>
array('pipe', 'r')), $pipes1);
echo('Opening process 2'."\n");
$process2 = proc_open('cat', array(0 => array('pipe', 'r'), 1 =>
array('pipe', 'r')), $pipes2);

// WORKS :

//echo('Closing process 2'."\n");
//fclose($pipes2[0]); fclose($pipes2[1]); proc_close($process2);
//echo('Closing process 1'."\n");
//fclose($pipes1[0]); fclose($pipes1[1]); proc_close($process1);

// DOESN'T WORK :

echo('Closing process 1'."\n");
fclose($pipes1[0]); fclose($pipes1[1]); proc_close($process1);
echo('Closing process 2'."\n");
fclose($pipes2[0]); fclose($pipes2[1]); proc_close($process2);
?>

Expected result:
----------------
$ php -f test.php
Opening process 1
Opening process 2
Closing process 1
Closing process 2
$ 

Actual result:
--------------
$ php -f test.php
Opening process 1
Opening process 2
Closing process 1

(HANGS)
