Description:
------------
In my application running Apache 2.0.46/php 4.3.10 in some scripts after complte execution file in /tmp/sess_xxxxx stays open. I've done tracing of apache processes with strace and found the following:

process A do open /tmp/sess_ file, flock it, execute script, close connection, but does not close /tmp/sess_ file. Any further request within this session is haging - further processes try to flock /tmp/sess_ file that stays open in process A and gets infinitive wait within the flock syscall.

Reproduce code:
---------------
I can't reproduce it in separate script. But the same application under Apache 1.3/PHP 4.3.4 works fine.

Expected result:
----------------
Sessions hangs.

Actual result:
--------------
Normal run of scripts:
14:40:58.514489 open("/tmp/sess_89b3f6140bce299259e0f810037c2d59", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0600) = 29
14:40:58.514559 flock(29, LOCK_EX)      = 0
14:40:58.514604 fcntl64(29, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0
14:40:58.514646 fstat64(29, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=1976, ...}) = 0
14:40:58.514728 pread(29, "xxxxx"..., 1976, 0) = 1976
......
14:40:58.667724 ftruncate(29, 0)        = 0
14:40:58.667807 pwrite(29, "xxxx"..., 1371, 0) = 1371
14:40:58.667923 close(29)               = 0

Broken scripts:14:35:15.776816 open("/tmp/sess_89b3f6140bce299259e0f810037c2d59", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0600) = 29
14:35:15.776879 flock(29, LOCK_EX)      = 0
14:35:15.776925 fcntl64(29, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0
14:35:15.776966 fstat64(29, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=1976, ...}) = 0
14:35:15.777041 pread(29, "xxxxx" 1976, 0) = 1976
and no operation any more on file 29...

Next request within the same session:14:35:16.187099 open("/tmp/sess_89b3f6140bce299259e0f810037c2d59", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0600) = 29
14:35:16.187167 flock(29, LOCK_EX <unfinished ...>

In /proc/<pid>/fd/ of idle apache process after execution of "broken scripts" I can see file 29 -> /tmp/sess_... still open.

Adding to the end of the scripts call to session_write_close() solves the problem. But as far as I can understand it should be done automatically always, but some times it does not happens.

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

First reaction about the snapshot is not related to this bug, bau in fact another bug. In procedure configure checking for Oracle Instance Client always overwrites variable ext_shared from previous Oracle Home installation checking. Very bad!
The following patch solves the problem:

Also in make test the following test has failed:

If my major problem is solved I'll report later.

The main problem in snapshot is solved. So fix bag in ext/oci8/config.m4 and release 4.3.11 ASAP.
 [2005-02-25 11:52 UTC] tony2001@php.net 
What's the problem with oci8/config.m4?
--with-oci8 & --with-oci8-instant-client are mutually exclusive and you should NOT be able to use both these options in the same time.
 [2005-02-25 11:59 UTC] stanislav dot voroniy at portavita dot nl 
I do have Oracle installed, I don't have Instant Client.
I've specified only one option - --with-oci8=shared, but in the run of the script after oci8 option oci8-instant client is checked, and it does not matter what you put in that option the 'case' statement always is executed and since instant client in 'no' or '*' state in my case variable ext_shared is always set to "no". Look in my patch - I've completelly excluded checking for option --with-oci8-instance-client if previously option --with-oci8 was set.

Fixed, thanks.
Next time please don't mess two different issues in the same report, fill new report instead.
