1. Problem Description:

crypt returns wrong value even in prefork MPM setup. I see work has
been done on a workaround for threaded models, but I get the same
problem in a prefork model.

From the command line, this works:

print crypt("testing", "SNXJvM5I.PJrE");


SNXJvM5I.PJrE

From inside mod_perl, I get:

SNi9U6dA0Wi2M

FYI, this sounds like a known bug in glibc.  I think I fixed it after
Red Hat 8.0 was released.

Thanks, Daniel!


Any ideas how should we let the user know that it's not a bug in mod_perl? 'make test' will fail for them, I guess we could tell them at this stage that it's a bug in the system library.

Or should we provide a C-level fix? Thoughts?


I'm not sure, but if you dig up the message where I posted the patch
(probably in the archives of libc-alpha at: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha)
then there may be an application workaround.

Are you talking about this patch? http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2002-10/msg00510.html
