Description:
------------
I'm not even sure if this is a bug, but after 2 days of searching for answers this 
is my last resort. Here is the trace: http://www.hastebin.com/raw/virowemuvo

I'm using spl's auto load register. It's working fine for a whole bunch of files. 
On one particular file it dies. I've cleaned out that file and made it as simple 
as <?php class Log{} ?> and it still dies. So the require is definitely failing.

Interestingly when I look at the apc.php dashboard, other files have cache hits of 
1, 2, 3 (as a press reload). But the file in question is always hit twice as many 
times, eg. 2, 4, 6.



Expected result:
----------------
With APC turned off the application runs and web pages load normally.

Actual result:
--------------
With APC turned on I get the following files loaded:

/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/I18n.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Kohana/I18n.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Config.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Kohana/Config.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Config/File.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Kohana/Config/File.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Kohana/Config/File/Reader.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Kohana/Config/Reader.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Kohana/Config/Source.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Arr.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Kohana/Arr.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Config/Group.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Kohana/Config/Group.php
/home/vagrant/so-web/system/classes/Log.php

and then suddenly on the last one, Log.php, I get the error.

This looks like APC has been compiled with __DEBUG__ mode on. The log message indicates it's from apc_main.c:598

apc_debug("1. h->opened_path=[%s]  h->filename=[%s]\n" TSRMLS_CC, h->opened_path?h->opened_path:"null",h->filename);

you need to compile it with ./configure --disable-apc-debug

Of course, unless you compiled it with debug to debug this issue. In which case move it back out of feedback.

Thanks for the reply. So disabling debug will cause this issue to disappear or it 
will simply hide it and I will still have an underlying issue? Sorry, but I don't 
understand yet what's going on here. It seems like "require" has an issue.

The debug logs are written to the standard error output.

Kohana seems to read standard error and throw it as an exception

https://github.com/kohana/core/blob/3.3/master/classes/Kohana/Core.php#L984

So disabling the debug logs should remove the error.

Ok, to be clear, I'm installing APC using the php cookbook (you can see their 
apc example there):

https://github.com/opscode-cookbooks/php#example-1

Those "directives" seem like runtime configuration options. I'm wondering how 
chef works to install a non-debug version of APC.

Regarding Kohana, is this a showstopper? I'll speak to the #kohana guys later 
and see if they understand any work around.

Thanks.

I'm not really sure if that I know exactly what that runs, since APC does prompt for options when it is being installed.

pecl install APC

should prompt for the "enable debug mode" option & the default is "no"

Thanks. 

I ended up uninstalling it (it was installed using chef) and the re-installing 
manually and then just answered the prompts.

I'm guessing it works post-reinstall. Closing bug.
