#28669 [Opn]: Garbage collection doesnot work
ID: 28669 User updated by: liuyi1 at comp dot nus dot edu dot sg Reported By: liuyi1 at comp dot nus dot edu dot sg Status: Open Bug Type: Session related Operating System: Windows 2000 / Redhat A3 PHP Version: 4.3.6 New Comment: Description: I have several friends running my forum system.(www.celestesoft.com) Two of my friends got the same session problems under PHP4.3.6. ( both sites are under heavy traffic ) They are using default session handler and default session settings( 1/100 chance to start garbage collector ). Session files are stored in a specified folder ( not /tmp ) but in single level ( with no "N;xxx" configured ) . We noticed that session files are not cleaned automatically. after 3 days, both sites got over 150,000 session files. So now i have to write a cleaner for them to solve the problem temporarily. meanwhile the sites with PHP 4.3.5 or other previous verions are running very well. Sites with this problem Site 1: OS: Windows 2000 PHP 4.3.6 Site 2: OS: Redhat as 3.0 PHP 4.3.6 Sites without this problem Site 1: OS: FreeBSD 5.1 PHP 4.3.1 Site 2: OS: Redhat 9.0 PHP 4.3.5 Site 3: OS: Redhat 9.0 PHP 4.3.4 Site 4: OS: Redhat PHP 4.3.4 Site 5: OS: Redhat PHP 4.3.4 All sites are running the same forum system with almost the same configuration.
