The version of PHP that this bug was reported in is too old. Please try to reproduce this bug in the latest version of PHP (available from http://www.php.net/downloads.php If you are still able to reproduce the bug with one of the latest versions of PHP, please change the PHP version on this bug report to the version you tested and change the status back to "Open". Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-07-06 05:10:26] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Seems like someone else has been having a similar problem (Bug #10904 - I got curious as to what the other reproducible bugs were). My previous comments should help narrow this problem down further (and actually make it reproducible). My guess is that it is not only Windows platforms, but possibly even Linux...but that has yet to be proven. Right now I'm not in the mood to log into Linux and give myself another headache. One at a time is plenty for me :) (XiFusion is also for Linux, so it would be interesting to see if Apache fails under Linux due to the Apache->Perl->XiFusion->PHP combo).

My objective was to set up an SSL server to seamlessly work with the Xitami webserver, Apache is the obvious choice here. The first thing I did was download and install Apache 1.3.20 for Win32. Then, I applied the patches located in Apache_1.3.20-Mod_SSL_2.8.4-OpenSSL_0.9.6a-WIN32.zip on the contributions page of the www.modssl.org site. Finally, I configured and set up the SSL virtual server (both a self-signed and a CA-signed certificate work) and got everything working. I wrote a short Perl script that would call XiFusion with the correct parameters: #!c:/perl/bin/perl $ENV{"SCRIPT_NAME"} = $ENV{"REDIRECT_URL"}; system "c:\\xifusion\\xifusion.exe c:\\php4\\php.exe"; Side Note: I am the author of XiFusion v2.5 (a wrapper for CGIs under the Xitami webserver for ColdFusion and PHP <http://www.xitami.com/xifusion.zip>). This setup worked fine...sort of. I have tried everything I can think of to prove that PHP isn't the culprit, but it is. Here is what happens: 1) The browser connects to the SSL server. 2) The browser request a PHP page. Apache sees that PHP extensions are aliased to a type, thus it checks out the action it should take. It then executes the previously mentioned Perl script. 3) The Perl script modifies an environment variable and calls XiFusion. 4) XiFusion does its thing and executes PHP (I've checked to see if XiFusion or the Perl script were the problem and they are not). 5) PHP then starts to process the page. 6) ApacheCore.dll for some reason core dumps. I have no idea why it does this (it is somewhat random, but *VERY* reproducible). 7) The odd thing is is that when I click "Close" on the dialog box, Apache reloads and acts like nothing happened...weird (none of the log files show that an error occurred either...even weirder). What is even weirder than all that is if I switch from CGI mode to module mode (modify conf/httpd.conf), there is no problem...even under normal Apache 1.3 API. I've scoured google.com as well as the PHP databases for any solution to this very interesting bug. I've been re-building everything (Apache, OpenSSL, mod_ssl) from sources to see if I can improve the situation any. So far, no luck (no, I didn't forget to replace the DLLs in the Windows\system directory). I've seen references to the -DEAPI compile option for PHP, so I will try that out tomorrow to see if that helps (but knowing my luck so far... :) This bug is also in PHP v4.0.4. Pertinent Machine Info.: OS: Win98 Dual PIII 500 mHz CPUs 384MB RAM (I try to maintain about 150MB free using RamIdle) 18GB HD (5 GB free on the Win98 partition) I really want to use the XiFusion wrapper program rather than the module since I can get more control through XiFusion than I can through Apache. Sorry, no gdb backtrace. My debugging methods are usually lots of good ol' fashioned printf statements ;) Thomas Hruska Shining Light Productions "Meeting the Needs of Fellow Programmers" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=11921&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
