PHP built with libconv crashes after iconv() is called

Here are the test results:

1) Without libiconv installed

# php -i | grep ^iconv
iconv
iconv support => enabled
iconv implementation => unknown
iconv library version => unknown
iconv.input_encoding => no value => no value
iconv.internal_encoding => no value => no value
iconv.output_encoding => no value => no value

# php -r 'echo iconv("UTF-8", "UTF-8", "Hello, world.\n");'
Hello, world.

2) With libiconv installed

# php -i | grep ^iconv
iconv
iconv support => enabled
iconv implementation => libiconv
iconv library version => 1.14
iconv.input_encoding => no value => no value
iconv.internal_encoding => no value => no value
iconv.output_encoding => no value => no value

https://bugs.php.net/patch-display.php?bug_id=69769&patch=solaris-iconv-patch&revision=latest

I've applied this patch and the problem was fixed to me:

# php -i | grep ^iconv
iconv
iconv support => enabled
iconv implementation => libiconv
iconv library version => OS built-in
iconv.input_encoding => no value => no value
iconv.internal_encoding => no value => no value
iconv.output_encoding => no value => no value

# php -r 'echo iconv("UTF-8", "UTF-8", "Hello, world.\n");'
Hello, world.

This bug also happens in the latest versions of PHP 5.3, 5.4, 5.5 and 5.6.

I have the same problem on my freebsd host, looks like it happend when upgrade system of upgrade libiconv part. And after this, iconv never return normal..

System: FreeBSD 11.0 amd64/ FreeBSD 10.3 amd64
PHP: 5.6.27-29, 7.0.14, 7.1.0.

Same Problem. PHP-FPM crashes on FreeBSD 10.3 with PHP 5.6.30 and 7.0.14 if iconv is called

I've compiled phpXX-iconv with

CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-iconv=/usr/local

Now it works

This looks wrong.

I am experiencing this on FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE-p3 compiling PHP 7.3.5 from source using --with-iconv-dir=/usr/local

I've installed libiconv from ports but FreeBSD after 10-CURRENT on 2013-08-13 have iconv installed as part of the OS. It may be that the configure script, regardless of the value of DIR (/usr vs /usr/local) may pick up the port rather than the native library in /usr/lib/i18n/libiconv_std.so.4 vs /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so.2.5.1

I've tried DIR as both /usr and /usr/local without luck, still get the bus error. I'm going to dig a bit more to see if there is a lingering path issue in my environment, another ./configure var that will fix this on FreeBSD, or if another change is required.

It is still an issue when compiling PHP 7.3 from source on FreeBSD. Along with mysqli and mariadb, but that's another bug. :-)
 [2019-05-09 18:49 UTC] phpbugs dot ooglek at 0sg dot net
The documentation from ./configure is misleading.

# ./configure --help | grep -i iconv

  --without-iconv=DIR     Exclude iconv support
  --with-iconv-dir=DIR    XMLRPC-EPI: iconv dir for XMLRPC-EPI

However --with-iconv-dir seems to be not respected, and thus PHP ends up using the BSD version of libiconv, which causes the bus error.

When passing --with-iconv=/usr/local you get the correctly installed from ports libiconv from /usr/local 

Maybe add a failure case in ./configure if the library included is the BSD version? __bsd_iconv that cmb at php dot net mentioned is a likely culprit.
