on medium/high load and on multi-threaded serveurs ( apache 1.3.X windows and apache 2.0.X (mpm=worker) on linux), oci cause segmentation fault to apache.

I test with apache 1.3.26 / 2.0.40 on windows 2000 server and professionnal, php 4.2.3, oracle 8.1.7.0 and 9.0.1 ( on the same and different Pc). 
I test with and without autocommit. 
i always get the same result.

the script:
<?

$c = ocilogon ( 'test', "test", "db9");

$sql = "select count(id) as nb_row from test";

$stmt = ociparse ( $c, $sql );
ociexecute ( $stmt );
ocifetchinto ( $stmt, $tab );
print_r ( $tab );

ocilogoff ( $c );
?>

i run test with microsoft  web apllication stress tools and ab.

the error message is :
_oci_open_server: ORA12154 TNS: could not resolve service name.

All works fine with linux / apache 1.3.X.

I get this error in my apache error log when multithreading is turned on:
[notice] child pid 28373 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

Apache: 2.0.X (mpm worker)
OS: HP-UX 11.00 (with linker patches)
PHP: 4.2.2 dso with oci8 extension
Oracle: 8.1.6

If I set ThreadsPerChild to 1 (single threaded), I don't get any segfaults. With ThreadsPerChild set to 2 (or higher) I get the segmentation faults with as few as 2 concurrent requests (ab -n 10 -c 2 http://testurl/).

With particularly high load (>100 concurrent requests) Apache 2 hangs, and has to be killed.

I also get this error message in my php log:
"PHP Warning:  _oci_open_server: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name"

On the same system, Apache 1.3.26 with PHP as CGI works perfectly.

This might be an Apache 2 problem. Can you reproduce the crash with the latest CVS release on Apache over 2.0.43?

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz

Hello,

I'm having the same trouble (not always, but often - when server is receiving lots of user queries).

TNS-12154 when executing OCILogon method.

It seems that an error occurs at the same time on the Oracle side, at least, in the sqlnet.log, some errors is logged, and I could not find the description of that error on Oracle's web site.

Thus, I changed my OCILogon from

OCILogon('user', 'pass', 'tns alias');

to

$tns = <the actual line describing my listener from the tnsnames.ora file>;
OCILogon('user', 'pass', $tns);

and bingo, no more crashes ;)

My guess is when PHP sends too many lookups in a short time,  something in the oci call crashs. So, is it in PHP side, or Oracle side, I don't know.

I hope this will help to pinpoint/correct that pretty much annoying bug.
