[PHP-DEV] Bug #11009: Recursive call causes crash

2001-05-21 Thread millz

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: RedHat 6.2
PHP version:  4.0.5
PHP Bug Type: Reproducible crash
Bug description:  Recursive call causes crash

I created a function called pad which performs exactly what str_repeat does (didn't 
realize str_repeat was there originally).

function pad($length,$padVar=-){
 if($length=0){return;}
 else{return pad($length-1,$padVar).$padVar;}
}

When passing a length  about 5000 the page will not load and I quickly get this error 
in the php.error log: 
[notice] child pid 15040 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

I assume it is b/c the function stack is just not up to the task, but I thought I 
would let you know anyway. 
Of course I am using str_repeat now

Thanks!
Jason

Yeah, but the issue is not that I picked a bad way of doing this task, but whether 
or not a recursive call should be able to go this deep in PHPi guess not.  

Thanks for the help though,
Jas

I personally used sprintf for this job before str_repeat came along.  However, it is a 
useless argument now.

yeah, but a while($length--) was super slow (10-20 times slower)...actually timed-out 
on the simplest runs. 

maybe a for() is faster?!

This is more of a programing error.  This is a poor way to use recursive calls.  A 
loop is the correct way to handle this.

[PHP-DEV] Bug #10675: Executing background job from PHP causes session lock-up

2001-05-04 Thread millz

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: RedHat 6.2
PHP version:  4.0.5
PHP Bug Type: *Session related
Bug description:  Executing background job from PHP causes session lock-up

Executed a perl script in the background like this:
perl scriptname.pl $otherParams 2 /dev/null 1 /dev/null

Perl script forks and parent dies, so PHP should see the script as finished 
immediately, perl child does work in background (takes a few minutes to run).

PHP script that spawned perl script completes OK, browser stops waiting for more data 
from php script as it should.

However, when using the same browser window (or one from browser's file-new window) 
no other pages that referrence the session will load in the browser.  If we force the 
session to destroy just after the system() call, other scripts load just fine.  Also, 
other scripts work just fine if we start a new browser from scratch (creates new 
session).

So it appears that the PHP session is getting messed up somehow b/c of the background 
system/exec/`` call.  This seems to prevent the following pages from loading the 
session properly and therefore they will not run.

One other thing, once the child perl script is finally complete everything starts 
working again, i.e.-the session is OK again.
