My PHP 4.2.1 with Apache 1.3.24 has the following problem:

unset() hangs in most cases in an infinite loop. It's independent from the type of the variable, or if the variable does exist at all.

I experienced this problem only with the Apache-compiled-in version; the same PHP version as standalone CGI with the same compile options and php.ini doesn't have this problem.

The apache process executing a script which came to an unset() call uses >90% of the CPU time until it gets stopped by the maximum execution time limit.

register_globals is set to "On".

Please provide a short reproducing script.

No special script is required; even simple unset() calls fail:


<?php

$test = "test";

print "start";
unset($test);   // hangs and finally fails due to timeout in this line

?>

Can you provide more details on your setup please?

I'm not able to reproduce this on my 2.4 box running
Apache-1.3.24. In fact, I used unset in almost every
conceivable way without a problem.

Sorry, the problem was related to ZendOptimizer 1.3.0.
It works fine by just replacing 1.3.0 by 1.3.1.
