Hi!

I'm using PHP to create a file upload script for a website.  When a user uploads a large file (>1Mb) my server always starts to use all the available RAM(I have 160Mb installed), and also uses up all the swap space(256Mb).  This happens for any upload script written in PHP, even scripts that work on other servers.  I can upload files to scripts written in PERL, without a problem.  To resolve this problem, my only option is to completely kill apache with 'apachectl stop' and then start it back 'apachectl start'

Server software:
Apache 1.3.19 (also happened while I was running 1.3.17)
PHP 4.0.4pl1
Linux 2.4.1 (originally slackware 7.1 distro)

Server specs:
Intel Pentium 133Mhz
160Mb RAM
10Gb HDD

Here is the script that I'm using:
<?php
$base = realpath($DOCUMENT_ROOT . '/goods/docs/');
if (!$path) {
    $xdir = $base;
    $idir = '/goods/docs/';
    $sdir = './';
    $spath = '/';
} else {
    $idir = '/goods/docs/' . $path;
    $xdir = realpath($base . '/' . $path);
    $sdir = '/' . $path;
    $newpath = realpath($base . '/' . $path) . '/';
    $spath = substr($newpath, strlen($base), strlen($newpath)-strlen($base));
}
if (substr($xdir, 0, strlen($base)) != $base) {
echo "<font size=\"4\" color=\"#FF0000\">Trying something?</font>";
} else {
if ($userfile_size) {
$target = $xdir.'/'.$userfile_name;
if (!copy ($userfile,$target)) {
    echo 'Error copying file! Please try again!<br>Press the back button in your browser!';
} else {
    header ("Location: http://mouthoff.magestudios.net/admin/filemanager/?path=".urlencode($path));
    exit;
}
} else {
?>
<FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="/admin/filemanager/upload.php" METHOD="POST">
Upload this file: <INPUT NAME="userfile" TYPE="file">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="2000">
<input type="hidden" name="path" value="<?php echo $spath;?>">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" name="sendfile" VALUE="Upload File">
</FORM>
<?php
}
}
?>

I'm a PHP newbie, so please excuse any bad coding =)

Here's a copy of php.ini:
[PHP]

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; About this file ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; This file controls many aspects of PHP's behavior.  In order for PHP to
; read it, it must be named 'php.ini'.  PHP looks for it in the current
; working directory, in the path designated by the environment variable
; PHPRC, and in the path that was defined in compile time (in that order).
; Under Windows, the compile-time path is the Windows directory.  The
; path in which the php.ini file is looked for can be overriden using
; the -c argument in command line mode.
;
; The syntax of the file is extremely simple.  Whitespace and Lines
; beginning with a semicolon are silently ignored (as you probably guessed).
; Section headers (e.g. [Foo]) are also silently ignored, even though
; they might mean something in the future.
;
; Directives are specified using the following syntax:
; directive = value
; Directive names are *case sensitive* - foo=bar is different from FOO=bar.
;
; The value can be a string, a number, a PHP constant (e.g. E_ALL or M_PI), one
; of the INI constants (On, Off, True, False, Yes, No and None) or an expression
; (e.g. E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE), or a quoted string ("foo").
;
; Expressions in the INI file are limited to bitwise operators and parentheses:
; |				bitwise OR
; &				bitwise AND
; ~				bitwise NOT
; !				boolean NOT
;
; Boolean flags can be turned on using the values 1, On, True or Yes.
; They can be turned off using the values 0, Off, False or No.
;
; An empty string can be denoted by simply not writing anything after the equal
; sign, or by using the None keyword:
;
;   foo =			; sets foo to an empty string
;	foo = none		; sets foo to an empty string
;	foo = "none"	; sets foo to the string 'none'
;
; If you use constants in your value, and these constants belong to a dynamically
; loaded extension (either a PHP extension or a Zend extension), you may only
; use these constants *after* the line that loads the extension.
;
; All the values in the php.ini-dist file correspond to the builtin
; defaults (that is, if no php.ini is used, or if you delete these lines,
; the builtin defaults will be identical).


;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Language Options ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

engine			=	On	; Enable the PHP scripting language engine under Apache
short_open_tag	=	On	; allow the <? tag.  otherwise, only <?php and <script> tags are recognized.
asp_tags		=	Off ; allow ASP-style <% %> tags
precision		=	14	; number of significant digits displayed in floating point numbers
y2k_compliance	=	Off	; whether to be year 2000 compliant (will cause problems with non y2k compliant browsers)
output_buffering	= Off	; Output buffering allows you to send header lines (including cookies)
							; even after you send body content, in the price of slowing PHP's
							; output layer a bit.
							; You can enable output buffering by in runtime by calling the output
							; buffering functions, or enable output buffering for all files
							; by setting this directive to On.
output_handler		=		; You can redirect all of the output of your scripts to a function,
							; that can be responsible to process or log it.  For example,
							; if you set the output_handler to "ob_gzhandler", than output
							; will be transparently compressed for browsers that support gzip or
							; deflate encoding.  Setting an output handler automatically turns on
							; output buffering.
implicit_flush		= Off	; Implicit flush tells PHP to tell the output layer to flush itself
							; automatically after every output block.  This is equivalent to
							; calling the PHP function flush() after each and every call to print()
							; or echo() and each and every HTML block.
							; Turning this option on has serious performance implications, and
							; is generally recommended for debugging purposes only.
allow_call_time_pass_reference	= On	; whether to enable the ability to force arguments to be 
										; passed by reference at function-call time.  This method
										; is deprecated, and is likely to be unsupported in future
										; versions of PHP/Zend.  The encouraged method of specifying
										; which arguments should be passed by reference is in the
										; function declaration.  You're encouraged to try and
										; turn this option Off, and make sure your scripts work
										; properly with it, to ensure they will work with future
										; versions of the language (you will receive a warning
										; each time you use this feature, and the argument will
										; be passed by value instead of by reference).

; E_WARNING			- run-time warnings (non fatal errors)
; E_PARSE			- compile-time parse errors
; E_NOTICE			- run-time notices (these are warnings which often result from a bug in
;					  your code, but it's possible that it was intentional (e.g., using an
;					  uninitialized variable and relying on the fact it's automatically
;					  initialized to an empty string)
; E_CORE_ERROR		- fatal errors that occur during PHP's initial startup
; E_CORE_WARNING	- warnings (non fatal errors) that occur during PHP's initial startup
; E_COMPILE_ERROR	- fatal compile-time errors
; E_COMPILE_WARNING	- compile-time warnings (non fatal errors)
; E_USER_ERROR		- user-generated error message

; error_reporting = E_COMPILE_ERROR|E_ERROR|E_CORE_ERROR	; show only errors
error_reporting	=	E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE		; Show all errors except for notices
display_errors	=	On	; Print out errors (as a part of the output)
						; For production web sites, you're strongly encouraged
						; to turn this feature off, and use error logging instead (see below).
						; Keeping display_errors enabled on a production web site may reveal
						; security information to end users, such as file paths on your Web server,
						; your database schema or other information.
display_startup_errors = Off		; Even when display_errors is on, errors that occur during
									; PHP's startup sequence are not displayed.  It's strongly
									; recommended to keep display_startup_errors off, except for
									; when debugging.
log_errors		=	Off	; Log errors into a log file (server-specific log, stderr, or error_log (below))
						; As stated above, you're strongly advised to use error logging in place of

								; older values.
register_globals	=	On		; Whether or not to register the EGPCS variables as global
								; variables.  You may want to turn this off if you don't want

								; access all of the GPC variables through the $HTTP_*_VARS[],
								; variables.
								; You should do your best to write your scripts so that they do
								; not require register_globals to be on;  Using form variables
								; as globals can easily lead to possible security problems, if
								; the code is not very well thought of.
