Description:
------------
Ok, I don't really know what this error means, but I have been looking in the net for quite a while and found only one thread related to this... and the solution did not work.

The thread says its Zend Optimizer related.

I'll tell you what I did.

First checked it was a php error by disabling php in apache. Its output was none.

I enabled php and disabled all the extensions in the php.ini file. [19-Apr-2005 09:31:22] PHP Fatal error:  Unable to open base address file in Unknown on line 0

I re-enabled the extensions and same output ([19-Apr-2005 09:31:22] PHP Fatal error:  Unable to open base address file in Unknown on line 0).

I want to know whats up with this error. Is it a security issue? Is it an optimizer issue? Why doesn't zend have anything about it? Maybe I'm just a bad Web Investigator...

Im running php 5.0.4 on apache 2.0.53 in module mode.

Expected result:
----------------
No errors on PHP startup

Actual result:
--------------
[19-Apr-2005 09:31:22] PHP Fatal error:  Unable to open base address file in Unknown on line 0

Does this error message appear only when Zend Optimizer is enabled?

Ok man, take a yes for an answer.

Here is what I did.

First, I deleted the err.txt (thats the php error file) located at apache2 folder (F:\Server\Apache2).

I commented the following lines at php.ini like this:

#zend_extension_ts="F:\Server\Zend\lib\ZendExtensionManager.dll"
#zend_extension_manager.optimizer_ts="F:\Server\Zend\lib\Optimizer-2.5.7"
#zend_optimizer.optimization_level=15

I restarted apache and no error.

Next, i uncommented this same lines in php.ini like this:

zend_extension_ts="F:\Server\Zend\lib\ZendExtensionManager.dll"
zend_extension_manager.optimizer_ts="F:\Server\Zend\lib\Optimizer-2.5.7"
zend_optimizer.optimization_level=15

restarted and in the first restart I got no error. But in the second one, I got the same error.

I did this twice to confirm and got the exact same results.

Maybe I restarted too fast.

Do not file bugs when you have Zend extensions (zend_extension=)
loaded. Examples are Zend Optimizer, Zend Debugger, Turck MM Cache,
APC, Xdebug and ionCube loader.  These extensions often modify engine
behavior which is not related to PHP itself.
