The configure line:
./configure --with-nsapi=/opt/NetScape/server4 --with-oci8=/oracle/OraHome1 --prefix=/usr/local/php --mandir=/usr/man --srcdir=/usr/src/php-4.0.4pl1 --with-exec
-dir --enable-track-vars --enable-force-cgi-redirect --enable-discard-path --with-config-file-path=/opt/NetScape/server4

Using Iplanet 4.1sp6 on Sun 420R, single proc, 1GB ram

We were seeing large numbers of watchdog restarts, whenever php was enabled, as many as 100 in 5 minutes.  After much testing, we started to realize larger php files appeared to be causing the problem.  We have been able to create a php file that is 3812 lines long, that will crash the ns-httpd service _every_ time.  It is too long to attach here, but I can email it, once I have an address.  It simply consists of the following:
===========
<?php
        <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>bombs.php</TITLE></HEAD>";
        print "<BODY BGCOLOR=\"#FFFFFF\" TEXT=\"#000000\" LINK=\"#0000FF\"";
        print "VLINK=\"#840084\" ALINK=\"#0000FF\">";
        print "There is a file in this directory called BigBigGame.php";
<*REPEAT ABOVE LINE 3805 TIMES*>
 print "</BODY></HTML>";
 ?>
============

I am unable to obtain a backtrace, as netscape won't start with debug version.

Can you please try the latest snapshot available at snaps.php.net or even better the latest CVS (make sure you grab the latest CVS of TSRM if you use CVS).

I've been able to DL and compile 4.0.5.  Now Iplanet will not start with PHP enabled.  Relevant obj.conf lines:

Init fn="load-modules" funcs="php4_init,php4_close,php4_execute,php4_auth_trans" shlib="/
opt/NetScape/server4/bin/libphp4.so"
Init fn="php4_init" errorString="Failed to Initialize PHP!"

Service method="(GET|HEAD|POST)" type="magnus-internal/x-httpd-php" fn="php4_execute"

<Object name="x-httpd-php">
ObjectType fn="force-type" type="magnus-internal/x-httpd-php"

Thank you for taking the time to report a problem with PHP.
Unfortunately you are not using a current version of PHP -- 
the problem might already be fixed. Please download a new
PHP version from http://www.php.net/downloads.php

If you are able to reproduce the bug with one of the latest
versions of PHP, please change the PHP version on this bug report
to the version you tested and change the status back to "Open".
Again, thank you for your continued support of PHP.
