The web server hangs when you go to a page, almost seems like a loop and does not seem to time out.  When php is commented out in obj.conf, magnus.com, and mime.types the webserver works fine.

I am using iPlanet 4.1 SP9, on AIX 4.3.3

I have downloaded and installed gcc, bison, flex, autoconf, automake, make and many others from freeware.bull.net

export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH:/usr/vac/bin:/usr/ccs/bin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib

PHP 4.0.6 compile line
CC=gcc ./configure --without-mysql \
 --with-nsapi=/usr/netscape/server4 \
 --with-dbm \
 --with-gdbm \
 --enable-libgcc

compiles fine, i used dump -n to see the libpthread was included.  I have even tried to compile this without dbm and gdbm support and still the same problem.

Thanks for any help,

Chris

I tried to compile php 4.1.1 before I used 4.0.6, but 4.1.1 would run through the ./configure, and make, and fail on make install.  It would not make libphp4.so where 4.0.6 had no problem making libphp4.so.

Thanks,

Chris

I have the same problem, on the same platform using the same PHP version, and reproducible for PHP 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 as well. 

libphp4.so *is* made, but strangely enough its located in the '.libs' directory instead of 'libs', which 'make install' chokes on. I used the following work around for the 'make-install' issue (cp ./.libs/* ./libs), but then the server choked on server-startup.

I got some more information when I discovered that in my case, iPlanet is recieving signal 11/segmentation fault and trying to dump core when it 'hangs'. It's the uxwdog process that restarts it/keeps it from crashing, giving the impression that the server is 'frozen'.

In order to get a core file and some more info:

Make sure the account you are running the server as, can write to "/usr/netscape/server4/https-<servername>/config/core". By default, the core file should be located there. Make sure that the filesystem this
dir is in has enough space for a corefile.

Make sure there is no limit set for dumping core for the user-id the server is running under, by checking the users stanza in '/etc/security/limits' (set core=-1).

start the httpd manually (instead of using the 'start' script) by doing:
cd /usr/netscape/server4/bin/https/bin
./ns-httpd -d /usr/netscape/server4/https-servername>/config

Also, check the aix error log for messages by doing:
errpt -a | more

If you are running syslog, check that logfile too for messages from uxwdog.
