 New Comment:

I installed php5.3-200908010830:

with the "prefix" directory

php_admin_value open_basedir 
/var/www/ecolint.ch/dev:/var/www/ecolint.ch/tmp:/var/www/ecolint.ch/my
sql:/www/prog/php

everything works as expected, but without it

php_admin_value open_basedir 
/www/htdocs/ecolint.ch/dev:/www/htdocs/ecolint.ch/tmp:/www/htdocs/ecol
int.ch/mysql

it crashes again:

(gdb) run -X
Starting program: /www/apache/2.2.11/bin/httpd -X

Please try using this snapshot:

For Windows:

This is most likely fixed now. See also bug #48880

Maybe i'm wrong, if add the "prefix" path where php is installed to 
open_basedir directive, the segmentation fault and the strange
"unicode" 
outputs are gone on all my machines (linux+osx)

./configure \
--prefix=/www/prog/php/5.3.0 \

php_admin_value open_basedir 
/www/htdocs/ecolint.ch/dev:/www/htdocs/ecolint.ch/tmp:/www/htdocs/ecol
int.ch/mysql:/www/prog/php

but... it should be confirmed by others! =))

My problem is, currently its only the first linux server with running
php53. Other server needs several modules like ionCube which seems to be
not working with, maybe not compatible/supported by the vendor. 

But i tried it with one server... iconCube will be loaded, but php53
throws a lot of errors if open_basedir is enabled. I got errors that
iconcube is not in allowed path. A module in "not allowed path"? For ex.

i defined 3 entries for open_basedir like /var/www:/var/tmp:/var/upload
and i get 3 errors that /var/www/iconcube.so, /var/tmp/iconcube.so etc.
is not in allowed path. Thats why currently i cannot check the 
issue with the segmentation fault.

Otherwise i "found" a simple server with a lot of wordpress blogs and i
installed php53. With open_basedir enabled 70% of requests throw an HTTP
500 (not segmentation fault), but without open_basedir the server 
runs smoothly, realy strange... the same issue but "HTTP 500"?? Or is
wordpress/apache/mod_rewrite the troublemaker? I have no idea, how i can
debug it. I reversed the installation because the blogs has to 
run...

Thats why i installed a new server in our office and installed one of
our running project, with the same configuration and installing
procedure like all our other servers (see first post).

Without open_basedir enabled it runs but otherwise 20% of the request
fails with the following error message:

Warning: Unknown: open_basedir restriction in effect.
File(/var/www/bebees/trunk/bebees/index.php) is not within the allowed
path(s): (ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZMa&#7744;])
in Unknown on line 0

Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in
Unknown on line 0

Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required
'/var/www/bebees/trunk/bebees/index.php'
(include_path='.:/www/prog/php/5.3.0/lib/php') in Unknown on line 0

If i make an erroron purpose, php throws an message as expected for
ex.:

Warning: include_once() [function.include-once]: open_basedir
restriction in effect. File(/var/www/ideacmf/tags/1_0_4/core/cmf.php) is
not within the allowed path(s): (/www/tmp:/var/www/bebees/trunk) in 
/var/www/bebees/trunk/bebees/index.php on line 16

Than i installed the same project which is installed as in my first
post, but same result, no segmentation fault:

Warning: Unknown: open_basedir restriction in effect.
File(/var/www/ecolint/trunk/admin/index.php) is not within the allowed
path(s): (M&#1784;) in Unknown on line 0

Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in
Unknown on line 0

Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required
'/var/www/ecolint/trunk/admin/index.php'
(include_path='.:/www/prog/php/5.3.0/lib/php') in Unknown on line 0

On the test server, which i've reported first, i have no clue what i
can do else, because i've never learned/used c/c++ with all its dev
tools or how i can provide more information to fixing this issue, maybe

something with used adaptec driver in kernel, which returns an
"unexpected result" which let apache runs in trouble, no idea... Sorry
for the information leak =(  ...)

Hello there

I can confirm that I have a very similar issue. I have been running PHP
with open_basedir for quite some time. I upgraded to php 5.3.0 recently,
previously having ran php 5.2.5. Immediately after installing the newly
compiled version, the issues began.

The problem as I experience it, is that the "open_basedir" setting
seems to be composed of random, non latin1 characters (displayed as
symbols by the browser). I cannot draw any reasons as to which users are
affected by this or why, but it does not happen to everyone - it is
seemingly random.

I am using CentOS 5.3 with the latest cPanel 11 on CURRENT which
manages the open_basedir. I am using Apache 2.2.6.

My compile string is as follows;

'./configure' '--prefix=/usr/local'
'--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--enable-bcmath'
'--enable-calendar' '--enable-exif' '--enable-ftp'
'--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--enable-libxml' '--enable-mbstring'
'--enable-soap' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-zip' '--with-bz2'
'--with-curl=/opt/curlssl/' '--with-curlwrappers'
'--with-freetype-dir=/usr' '--with-gd' '--with-gettext'
'--with-imap=/opt/php_with_imap_client/' '--with-imap-ssl=/usr'
'--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-kerberos' '--with-libdir=lib64'
'--with-libxml-dir=/opt/xml2' '--with-libxml-dir=/opt/xml2/'
'--with-mcrypt=/opt/libmcrypt/' '--with-mhash=/opt/mhash/'
'--with-openssl-dir=/usr' '--with-pic' '--with-png-dir=/usr'
'--with-xpm-dir=/usr' '--with-xsl=/opt/xslt/' '--with-zlib'
'--with-zlib-dir=/usr' '--with-openssl=/usr' '--with-mysql'
'--with-mysqli' '--with-pgsql' '--with-sqlite=shared'
'--enable-pdo=shared' '--with-pdo-sqlite=shared'
'--with-pdo-mysql=shared' '--with-pdo-pgsql=shared'
'--with-magickwand=/usr/local/bin'

You can check other relevant settings here:
http://liway.com/test.php

For reference, here is the screenshot of the exact error message which
one of the accounts is getting, which shows the open_basedir setting
being composed of weird characters.
http://img75.imageshack.us/img75/6261/screenshot1a.png
The situation involves phpbb3 trying to include parts of itself, so I
am confident that it should be allowed, as it's in the same directory or
close directories within a single account home folder.

The second screenshot is of the relevant open_basedir setting in the
httpd.conf file. I have checked the settings against those in the
virtual hosts of other accounts where open_basedir works without errors,
and I can confirm that they are absolutely identical (apart from the
actual home directory).

Needless to say, this is a very serious issue, as open_basedir is an
extremely important security measure for those of us who don't run
suPHP, and now it is impossible to use it because of these problems.

I'm available daily for testing, hope this bug report will get some new
attention for developers.

Cheers

I've noticed that one virtual host with open_basedir is working
normally. Problem starts, when you using two or more virtual hosts in
apache.

Seems to be some sort of memory allocation problem. I have same issue
on FreeBSD 7.2-p2 x64 jailed environment. Apache - 2.2.11 from latest
FreeBSD ports (2.2.11_7). Error log shows something like:  "PHP Warning:
 Unknown: open_basedir restriction in effect.
File(/usr/local/www/apache22/data/info.php) is not within the allowed
path(s): (\b) in Unknown on line 0" As you see - \b is the allowed
paths, and my apache config file contains "php_admin_value open_basedir
/usr/local/www/phpMyAdmin:/usr/local/www/apache22/data:/tmp:/manualbuilds/php53/lib/php".
