I just thought I would pass this along, it might be the cause of some bug reports. Using Linux Mandrake 7.2 and Sybase Open client 11.1.1, php4.0.4p1. I was getting a core (illegal instruction) on apache startup when I had the sybase modules installed in PHP. However, I knew it worked fine on Solaris 2.6 at work, so I was puzzled. looking at the backtrace, I discovered it was dumping in cs_ctx_alloc which tries to read the locales.dat files. Then it hit me, Sybase is very picky about the LANG variable being set correctly for a matching record in locales.dat. Mine was set to "en" The fix... Either 1. set LANG=C in apachectl or 2. add "locale = en, us_english, iso_1" to the locales.dat in the linux section. This can be very frustrating, I've been working with Sybase for years and it still took me a long time to find this. I don't know if this is documented anywhere, but if not it would be nice to have it so.
