Bug description: Page stops creating in middle of page and many php.exe started
Description:
------------
When programming on complicated sites, I have run into a problem a few
times. I'll add some code (sometimes it could be something as simple as a
few lines like this:
echo "<table><tr><td>Table 1</td></tr>";
But seems to better replicated with large complex arrays, just 'cause they
are larger, there is a greater chance. When I have run into this problem,
I transfer my code to my Linux machine, and a Unix webhosting server. They
all do the same thing.
I've also had it stop in the middle of a php function such as print_r().
It will suddenly just stop. I've seen it print_r($array); and stop like
this:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[user] => admin
[0] => Array
(
[album] => 1
[0] => Array
(
[date] => 1080354398
[name] => 105blaster_s9969041.jpg
[number] => 0
)
[1] => Array
(
[date] => 1080460914
[name] => ballot7784410.jpg
[num
..just stops in the middle of the dump.
Also, every time a page like this is opened, an execution of php.exe is
started. And after 30 or so open there is an "internal server error". I'm
not sure of how the PHP client works, but my guess is that php.exe is
crashing partially, and it tries to start another, and I just end up with
a bunch of the same program.
I also think it may have something to do with error reporting. Because to
a point, I was able to supress the bug by adding @ signs to certain lines
of code, ones which could potentially return an error but don't (I did
this just as some debugging attempts, and was suprised that it worked --
but I could only do it to so many relevent lines before I ran out, and the
problem persisted after I added something else). And I checked my apache
error log and no "Segmentation Fault" errors are in there.
Currently I am using a GD2 extension, but I have run into the problem when
I was using all default settings.
Reproduce code:
---------------
I can't seem to reproduce the error on Linux with this code, but I know
with some other code I have.
I don't know exactly what part is causeing it, so I am using all of it. If
you see some inconsistancies, it is probably because I was trying to
debug.

Expected result:
----------------
The page to be displayed fully. And no php.exe's to start.
Actual result:
--------------
Currently the output is stopping for no apearent reason (see description
for an example). The output will just stop at some character, and the
browser continually tries to get the rest. Everytime a page like this is
opened, an execution of php.exe is started.
