Description:
------------
PHP crashes in case of warning messages during MINIT().

In case of warning messages during MINIT() the php_log_err() function is called. In case error_log directive is set to log errors into file this function tries to add timestamp using formatting through php_format_date(). However it leads PHP into infinity recursion if TZ isn't set, because php_format_date() throws another warning.

Even preventing the recursion with static flag makes PHP crash in ext/date because of uninitialized DATEG(tzcache).

See also bug #37111 which is similar problem, just during shutdown.

[2009-05-12 17:11 UTC] jani@php.net

And of course this problem exists in all branches.

[2009-05-13 00:46 UTC] jani@php.net

Dmitry, I committed a fix in HEAD. Please check it out. If you agree, 
I'll MFH to other branches.

[2009-05-13 07:09 UTC] dmitry@php.net

Unfortunately this patch doesn't fix the bug.

[2009-05-13 18:21 UTC] jani@php.net

I fixed the first part (dependancy issues + loading order), Derick can 
now fix the second part and add infinite recursion protection and make 
init tzcache be done in GINIT _and_ RINIT (if ! init -> init.. :)

This really need to be fixed ASAP! There was some patch by Stas somewhere, why it isn't committed is a mystery..

[2009-07-07 16:30 UTC] jani@php.net

Can't find Stas' patch, but here's my proposal:

  http://pecl.php.net/~jani/patches/bug48247.patch

I don't see any reason why possible startup errors need to have "properly formatted" error especially when the error is about the formatting of that date. :D
