Forgot to add I was using the Apache SAPI.

Can you submit a minimal script for which this crash occurs?  Perhaps some sample XML?  Can you look through the Apache error logs for anything that will shed some more light on the issue?

I think this is the relevant part of my Apache error log. My installation locations are a bit weird:

Apache: P:\Daemons\Apache
PHP: P:\Daemons\PHP
DocumentRoot: W:\

Some PHP scripts that made it crash are now in the aforementioned dir.

Nope.  What you're seeing in those lines from the apache log are attempts by the code red worm to break into your system.  But you're safe since you're not running IIS.  If you'll post your apache error_log file to that site, I'll take a look at it.

Done.

I uninstalled php_domxml yesterday at about this time from PHP (commented it out from php.ini).

You have issues with the XML that you're trying to process.  An excerpt from the error.log file:

-Entity: line 5: error: Premature end of data in tag <br>
-<br>
-<b>Warning</b>:  Bad
-
-^
-Entity: line 5: error: Premature end of data in tag <br>

Fix the xml errors and you might not get crashes.

I'll admit that php should not crash when fed invalid xml, but more important is to get it working with valid xml.

If you fix the xml errors and still get the same problem, feel free to reopen this bug.

Another observation from the error log:

The errors that are given makes me believe that it's trying to apply XML parsing rules to a HTML document.  Looks like your got.php should be modified to make sure that you got a 200 return code rather than some html error message.

Two interesting observations.

- The domxml from 4.2.0 WILL work correctly with 4.1.2, but not with 4.2.0.
- After Apache crashes, the output does show up correctly.

I uploaded a new file test.got.php, and it will start var_dumping correctly, but somewhere while working on getChildren(), it will crash Apache, and then it will start over, and crash again, infinitely (well, I let it run for a couple of minutes).

But the script works right until I call getChildren, I checked if the XML that got through was right, and it was.

Could you please check the latest Stable-snapshots from

and see, if the problem still is there.
