Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a backtrace to see what is happening behind the scenes. To
find out how to generate a backtrace, please read
http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace.php for *NIX and
http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace-win32.php for Win32

Once you have generated a backtrace, please submit it to this bug
report and change the status back to "Open". Thank you for helping
us make PHP better.
 [2006-09-11 06:46 UTC] iain at iaindooley dot com 
i followed the instructions on obtaining a backtrace, however the backtrace i received does not seem to be as helpful as the example:

---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit---
#385 0x00000001 in ?? ()
#386 0x283303d8 in ?? ()
#387 0x28317cdd in ?? ()
#388 0x08066bc4 in ap_getline ()

the previous lines (of which there are many) are all similar to the three above ap_getline, ie. they all have an address and ?? ()

i checked my config, and i ran ./configure with --enable-debug. i notice on the page with instructions to obtain a backtrace it is --with-debug. is there a difference?

a different application on the same machine that also runs scripts on the command line had this backtrace:

#2464 0x0000008c in ?? ()
#2465 0x0838c950 in ?? ()
#2466 0x00000000 in ?? ()
#2467 0x28316cdd in ?? ()
#2468 0x08064280 in ap_cfg_getline ()
Previous frame inner to this frame (corrupt stack?)

once again i have ommitted many lines above that were ??()

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 the script requires a 
database to demonstrate the issue, please make sure it creates 
all necessary tables, stored procedures etc.

Please avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

ap_getline () in CLI? Something is really broken there.
 [2006-09-11 08:03 UTC] iain at iaindooley dot com 
okay, i'll put a script into cron that doesn't do much and see if it segfaults.

i'm a bit mystified by the last line of the comment:

"ap_getline () in CLI? Something is really broken there."

is this something incorrect i have done in my php script? i don't know what ap_getline is.

the scripts that are producing this problem are largish applications. based on the information available do you have any suggested content for a script to test on the command line?
 [2006-09-11 08:16 UTC] mike@php.net 
Because ap_getline() really looks like an Apache httpd internal function.

Anyway, you can produce much better backtraces with a debug build.

Thanks.

>is this something incorrect i have done in my php script?
> i don't know what ap_getline is.
No, it's not about you or your script.
ap_getline() is a function from Apache API, so it just can't appear in CLI.
 [2006-09-11 08:25 UTC] iain at iaindooley dot com 
okay, in my configure line i have --enable-debug. on the page with instructions to obtaining a backtrace, it says i need to compile --with-debug. will compiling with --with-debug instead of --enable-debug improve the backtrace?
 [2006-09-11 08:35 UTC] tony2001@php.net 
No, the page says "--enable-debug", which is the correct option.
 [2006-09-11 09:13 UTC] iain at iaindooley dot com 
sorry, i was using httpd for the backtrace where as i should have been using cli php. here is the backtrace:
