Description:
------------
I have failed to upgrade our PHP-installation on Tru64 UNIX to 4.4.1 or 4.4.2 (successful on Linux and Solaris).

When I try to restart Apache after copying a new libphp4.so I get a crash which only lists the following:

bin/apachectl: 814341 Memory fault
bin/apachectl startssl: httpd could not be started

This setup has worked flawlessly upto 4.4.0 but both 4.4.1 and 4.4.2 triggers this behaviour.

Config:

./configure  --with-apache=../apache_1.3.33 --with-prefix=/usr/local/php --with-oci8=/usr/users/dba/oracle/product/9.2.0 --with-openssl

I can find no further information in any of Apache's logfiles.

This is a setup with Apache 1.3.33 and mod_ssl 2.8.22.

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a backtrace to see what is happening behind the scenes. To
find out how to generate a backtrace, please read
http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace.php for *NIX and
http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace-win32.php for Win32

Once you have generated a backtrace, please submit it to this bug
report and change the status back to "Open". Thank you for helping
us make PHP better.

Checked the instructions for generating a backtrace.

Any chance of instructions for T64's dbx instead of gdb?

No, you're on your own for that... but your best bet would be to start apache in single process mode (-X) in the debugger and then request your script. The debugging should capture it when it segfaults and i guess there is a command to make a backtrace then.

I have generated a core file and I am waiting on help from HP on how to handle the debugger. My session so far:

dbx version 5.1
Type 'help' for help.
Core file created by program "httpd"

Does this help in any way so far?

Something that was interesting as well was that 'httpd -X' doesn't coredump, it's not until I run 'apachectl startssl' that I trigger the memory fault..
