To reproduce in Jaunty (may require at least two physical CPU cores because this is a race condition) simply run the following bash command:
$ while true; do php -r ""; done (hit CTRL+C after seeing at least one "Segmentation fault") The above code repeatedly starts php interpreter and runs no code before exit. At it still causes random segfaults. To reproduce, you must have package "php5-mysql" or equivalent installed (try "php -m | grep mysql" to see if you have mysql support in php). I believe that this may cause minor performance hit with the non-CLI php variant also but because the segmentation fault occurs in (transparent) paraller process, the problem is not visible through apache. -- php-cli segmentation fault with mysql extension https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343870 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to php5 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
