Re: [PHP] Reading class variable value always returns NULL

2012-08-14 Thread Reto Kaiser
Hi,

Thanks for your input Robert and Volmar! I have googled again with
"instance variable" instead of "class variable" - but have not found
any similar reports.

I'm pretty sure those are the same objects. The application usually
runs alright. We only see the instance variables becoming NULL since
about a week.

We had 3 small software upgrade coming from debian since we observe
the problem. We think they cannot be related. Still we have reverted
all of those and still see the problem.
Next step is that we setup a exact copy of the machine. Maybe it is a
hardware problem...

Thanks,
 Reto

[PHP] PHP APC 3.1.11

2012-08-14 Thread Vedran Rodic
Hi,

PHP APC 3.1.11 is marked beta, however it seems to contain important bugfixes.

Is it safe to deploy on production (we're currently using 3.1.9)? Or
it is better to wait for 'stable' release. When is next 'stable'
expected?

Hopefully that's just for development, and you're making much more
serious security considerations for anything production-worthy or even
simply network-facing.

Yeah, neither option would resolve the issue anymore.  The
monitor-punch-fix feature was removed in PHP 3.0.4.

This question is better directed to the PECL development mailing
list (CC'd).  You can - and should - subscribe to that list by sending
a blank email to pecl-dev-subscr...@lists.php.net if you want to
follow along with the discussion and ensure that you receive all

Ted,

Please see the current signature for microtime():

mixed microtime ([ bool $get_as_float = false ] )

The optional paramter was added in PHP 5.0.0. I think it's safe to update your 
habits :)

Cheers,

Rob:

Thanks -- my habits are always in a state of being updated -- just ask my wife.


I'm not sure if you're making a joke, but your changes have no effect. 
You've merely explicitly stated the optional parameter's default value. 
What I had meant was to change the following:




To the following :)

Hi,

We have since deployed another webserver machine and observe the exact

So it is not a hardware problem.

We have also disabled various php modules, but this didn't help either.

Any debug suggestions are welcome! :)

Re: [PHP] Reading class variable value always returns NULL

2012-08-14 Thread Robert Williams
I'm not real clear on what's happening. Are you saying that if you assign
values to the protected class members, and then immediately read them,
that they're null? So, there's code something like this:

class Foo {
   public function Something() {
  $this->foo = 1;

  //shows null instead of 1
  var_dump($this->foo);
   }

   protected $foo;
}



Is that right?

Bob

What is your error reporting set to?

Do you have display errors turned on?

Are you saving your errors to a log file?

Re: [PHP] Reading class variable value always returns NULL

2012-08-14 Thread Reto Kaiser
Hey,

We have:
error_reporting((E_ALL | E_STRICT) & ~(E_NOTICE | E_USER_NOTICE));

Displaying errors is disabled:
display_errors = Off

We have a custom error handler which logs all errors to a file.
In this file we receive byeffect errors, like that the second argument
to "array_key_exists" should be array, but is NULL. When we further
debug the reason is that the second argument is an instance variable,
and all instance variables are NULL.
We're pretty sure this is a software bug, since it only happens from
time to time, and already happens in the first line of the php script,
when none of our application code was loaded.
For example:

foo = 1;
if ($a->foo === null) {
 throw new Exception("strange");
}

will throw an exception.

Since it only happens from time to time, it is really hard to debug.
We're now trying to reproduce in a virtual machine environment, while
replaying the actual requests that our webserver received. When we're
just simulating random load on the web server it doesn't happen. So it
must have something to do with certain requests, and they must have
some strange byeffect on php, or mod_php or something related.

Any input welcome!

Thanks,
 Reto

Just to clarify, since at least 4.3.x subsequent calls session_start raise
an E_NOTICE and are ignored, so you're first call is generating almost all
the time.
