Hello all,
I've been battling with a crash on a somewhat-fresh XP SP3 under Apache 2.2.11
and any version of PHP higher than 5.2.8. The problem *appears* to be with
php5ts.dll. Here's what I'm getting in my httpd error log:
[notice] Parent: child process exited with status 3221225477 -- Restarting.
There are no errors (startup or otherwise) for PHP.
I installed 5.2.10 from the .msi with the following extensions: bzip2, cURL,
GD2, IMAP, MB String, MySQL, MySQLi, OpenSSL, PDO (and Mysql driver), SOAP,
Sockets, XML-RPC, XSL & zip.
The crash occurs when trying to log into Drupal. I can get my login page, but
my Apache crashes when loading the main page. So far I haven't been able to
isolate WHERE in the code it's crashing, but I can do more digging if
necessary. It's crashing under both PHP 5.2.9 and 5.2.10.
I first assumed it was a extension problem, so I commented out extensions, one
at a time, until I could successfully log in. When cURL wasn't loaded, the
whole site works great. I found this odd since it works fine under 5.2.8 on my
laptop with cURL enabled. I'm not aware of any code in my Drupal install that
uses cURL but I did a quick test and was able to fetch a web page with cURL,
furthering the mystery.
That led me to think it may have something to do with the SSL libs, so I tried
0.9.8i, j & k, with no success. I made sure the same version was used for both
Apache and PHP; no difference.
I also used Process Explorer to verify that the right DLLs are being loaded as
I'd read elsewhere about the SSL or MySQL libs needing to be either in my PATH,
/windows/system32, or apache/bin. Regardless of where they were located, they
loaded fine.
So copied my PHP dir from the laptop over and bounced Apache; Bingo!everything
woke up beautifully. That led me to swap out DLLs from the laptop's 5.2.8 with
the 5.2.10 install. The only DLL that made a difference was php5ts.dll.
5.2.8's php5ts works great, 5.2.10's php5ts crashes.
I'm hesitant to submit a bug since 90% of the bugs I've seen are dupes or
mis-configurations, but I also haven't found anyone else experiencing this
issue with recent builds.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Brad Waite
