Hello, Environment: OpenBSD 4.5 stable , generic MP kernel. Dmesg here: http://pastebin.com/m5f5e96fe
Summary: We have a special need to use Apache 2 with PHP5 and before the ports where updated from php5.2.6 and apache 2.2.9 this procedure worked 100% before and now even in a new install just by calling phpinfo() iam getting the following intermittent errors in the error log and a white screen: Error: [Sun Aug 09 12:47:27 2009] [notice] child pid 12566 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) Ruled out: I have ruled out hardware issues by totally replacing the box and also doing a fresh install.. I have made sure all X11 file sets where installed because they are needed for compilation. How to recreate the problem: a.) Compile kernel to stable rebooted, and compiled userland to stable. b.) Dowloaded the latest ports from the stable branch. c.) cd /usr/ports/www/apache-httpd/; make; make install. Confirmed sucessfull install of apache 2.2.11 d.) cd /usr/ports/www/php5/core; vi Makefile and changed: CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs \ to CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-apxs2=/usr/local/sbin/apxs2 \ then make; make install. Confirmed the installation of php5.2.10 e.) Configured httpd2.conf so that it loads the php5 module: LoadModule php5_module /usr/local/lib/php/libphp5.so f.) cd /usr/ports/www/php5/extensions; vi Makefile and changed: CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs \ to CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-apxs2=/usr/local/sbin/apxs2 \ then make; make install. g.) export PKG_PATH=/usr/ports/packages/i386/all/; pkg_add php5-bz2 php5-curl php5-gd php5-gmp php5-mbstring php5-mcrypt php5-mhash php5-mysql php5-shmop. (This will grab the packages compiled from the pkg:path). h.) Placed a info.php file in the apache2 htdocs and refresh it many times, many of those generate that error and images (logos) dont load. ...... the issue is totally INTERMITTENT.. after I rebooted I could load phpinfo() fine but then I tried installing phpmyadmin and sometimes some functions just yield out the error. Sometimes the issue is so bad all the pages load half way. Iam about to throw myself out the window because Ive tried for days to look for a specific pattern towards when the Segmentation is generated, but it is absolutely random. Sometimes my sites dont generate the Seg fault error but they just log a 500 error without further explanation. I have repeated this so many times that sometimes it isnt even necessary to load the extensions just the php5-core will error. Please advise! Andres
