Description:
------------
I'm receiving a Segmentation Fault when accessing index.php from cacti. I recompiled PHP without sessions support and the segmentation fault was not happening anymore.

httpd-2.0.52-22.ent.centos4
glibc-2.3.4-2.13
cacti-0.8.6h

Thanks for any help

Reproduce code:
---------------
I tried to locate the source of the segmentation fault.
I located the line by using exit; to see where the fault is caused.
To me, it makes no sense but giving it to you anyway. 

/cacti/lib/functions.php:137

if (isset($_SESSION["sess_config_array"])) {
    $config_array = $_SESSION["sess_config_array"];
}


Expected result:
----------------
Segmentation fault

Actual result:
--------------

It was initially on PHP5.1.1.
But the problem persists on PHP5.1.2

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves. 

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external 
resources such as databases, etc.

If possible, make the script source available online and provide
an URL to it here. Try to avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

Fixed without any reasons.
But still cause segmentation fault with cli.

Will come back if I can reproduce this bug.

I think I know what the issue is, bad user/passwd login configuration for the cacti mysql account in include/config.php. When running thru Apache the error_log will only output "segmentation fault" but if you run the poller.php script on its own, you'll get the typical error msg of a failed mysql login (some 10 times?), until it crashs.

I find it quite funny that this problem in connecting to MySQL leads to a segmentation fault. I can reproduce any it by installing OpenSuSE 10.x or OpenSuSE 11 and the 'cacti' package, and this has not changed for at least a couple years.

Same here:

- CentOS 5
- PHP 5.1.6
- mysql  Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.45

Browsing to any cacti webpage results in a white page.
# tail /var/log/httpd/error_log

Hm, strange. Same behavior with PHP 5.2.6 :-(
 [2009-08-16 10:38 UTC] jef at superior dot nl 
Same problem on 5.2.10 and 5.3.0 :/ plz resolve this issue
 [2009-11-11 04:53 UTC] no at thanks dot com 
When I ran into this issue, it turned out I didn't actually import the 
cacti.sql into mysql.  After doing that, no more "Segmentation fault".
Hope that helps someone.
