Please get fresh sources of PHP 4.2.0 and replace
the configure with this:

http://www.edin.dk/php/configure.gz

This might be yet another side effect of the buggy autoconf 2.52 which was used to generate the configure in the distribution package.

Dear Sniper,

yet PHP Apache does not crash on requesting phpinfo() but does if I try to make MySql connection.
I took sources from download section at php.net (Apr.22) and the config you told me.
strace tells me:
open("/lib/libdb.so.3", O_RDONLY)       = 5
read(5, "\177ELF\1\1\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\3\0\3\0\1\0\0\0\300*\0"..., 1024) = 1024

old_mmap(0x4044a000, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 5, 0x38000) = 0x4044a000
close(5)                                = 0
munmap(0x4037e000, 22601)               = 0

Please provide the full configure line of PHP. Also can you paste the relevant lines of the /etc/services file containing mysql? Btw, which version of libc are you using exactly (use dpkg -s libc6|grep Version ) ?

It looks like a problem with your system libraries, not related to php or mysql at all.

Dear Developers,

thank you a lot for quick reply.

I tried it using minimal configuration:
./configure --enable-debug --with-mysql --with-apxs=/usr/bin/apxs

Apache is libthread linked.
Libc is Version: 2.2.5-4

MySql lines from /etc/services:
grep mysql /etc/services
mysql           3306/tcp                        # MySQL
mysql           3306/udp                        # MySQL

I think myself that it is a lib problem, but I reinstalled all libs, made hardware check before writing this bug report :(
All libs are from woody, apt installed.

Does PHP 4.1.2 work any better then?

Nope, has same effect :(

How can I check that libdb2 is ok?

Maybe some bug in that lib?

This bug has been fixed in CVS. You can grab a snapshot of the
CVS version at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation 
problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/.
In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
