As I hinted in my original bug report, the MapServer community has long maintained that the PHP/MapScript extension is most stable when PHP is configured to run in CGI mode. I have a link to the MapServer Wiki that very clearly corroborates this. See here:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?PHPMapScriptCGI The relevant quote from the Wiki is as follows: <quote> The Problem Due to some thread-safety problems (and some heritage from PHP3 in the php_mapscript.c code), PHPMapScript versions 3.5 (and 3.6-dev at least) will produce intermittent errors and crashes when used under PHP configured as an Apache DSO or as an ISAPI module. The workaround (until we rework the PHPMapScript code) is to configure your PHP as a CGI and then things will work just fine. </quote> As far as I know, and I have been following the mapserver-users mailing list for a few years now, the above-quoted advice still applies to the current version of MapServer (5.0.0, as I write this). _______________________________________________ Pkg-grass-devel mailing list Pkg-grass-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-grass-devel
