Description:
------------
Hi there, sorry, but I am running out of ideas here...
 
I have tracked my problem to similar to the bugs 17402 or 8133 or 8464.  I have tried php 4.3.4 through 4.3.7 including latest snapshot.  My configure options are:
'./configure' '--with-mysql' '--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--includedir=/usr/local/include' '--with-pspell' '--with-xml' '--with-zlib' '--with-mcrypt=/usr/src/libmcrypt-2.5.7' '--enable-memory-limit=yes' '--enable-shmop' 
 
I have also tried various other configurations, the common configure option is always pspell.  If I remove it the issue goes away...
 
The issue is that the so module is installed and then I can start apache standard and with ssl, but cannot do a restart or a graceful without getting a seg fault and core dumped, can't figure out what is going on here. i have updated my glib, gmake functions, I have used various version of aspell, all with no luck.  No matter what I try I cannot get the pspell module enabled and to allow apache to do a restart or graceful without a core dump.
 
I am using apache 1.3.27.
 
Thanks for your help!
 
Best Regards,
Shannon

confirmed problem with php accelerator, not php.
 [2004-07-07 04:09 UTC] shannon at swerb dot com
I am not convinced the PHP team should not look into this further.  I have tried this a number of ways, and I can use the accelerator no problem as long as i don't enable the pspell support?  I have tried all version from 4.3.4 through the latest CVS, as well, have tried various other modules, upwards of adding another 30 --with options in the configure script, all are ok but as soon as --with-pspell added it causes the fault...  Is it possible that this is a PHP issue and not an accelerator issue?

At any rate, the accelerator folks at phpa don't seem to be supporting their product so I hope this helps others with the same problem and choose to disable and attempt to go with another accelerator/cache solution.

If the php folks still deam this "Bogus" and close it then I'll let it slide, but it seems quite odd to me.

Shannon

If you can reproduce it with some other cache/accelerator, reopen.
