This is doing my head in

PHP Version 5.1.6

Apache/2.2.2 (Fedora)

Dedicated server setup - been running 2+ years without a hiccup

Upgrading the old clunky intra/xtra 'net to use CMS

All works beautifully

Except Admin / Users and Groups / Frontend User Management gives me

  Browser :

   Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

  httpd/error_log :

   [notice] child pid 6201 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

  httpd/access_log :

    NULL

I do not use .htaccess for anything - I believe it is a server intensive way to control access - I do this thru a directive in httpd.conf

For curiosity I checked for session.save in

  httpd.conf :

    NULL

  and in php.ini :

    [Session]
    ; Handler used to store/retrieve data.
    session.save_handler = files

Have googled and searched until my fingers bled

Even installed the "Loaded" version from webtech101 ( nice work BTW )

Same issue

Any kicks in the right direction are appreciated

Thanx

Tim A. 

interesting.

what is php_memory_limit? raise it for a while and retest.

add more error logging for php (maybe to new log file so it doesnt clutter apache logs) and reload.

just segfault doesnt give much clue...

Arvo

memory_limit = 64M  ( was 32 )

error_reporting  =  E_ALL  ( was error_reporting  =  E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE )

service httpd restart

[notice] child pid 14202 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

I have played with logging etc ... but cannot get anymore detail

Find it interesting that I get "cannot display the webpage"

Usually when I break something I get a blank page 

This is getting worse

Went to "Minimal Template" as there are sections I want to do for PDAs

And get same segmentation fault

Something is not happy 

hmm,

I would start to disable mod_* stuff, compile apache with debug and check that everything is up to date. cant think of anything else,  just a segfault is a bit hard to pinpoint...

Has anyone been able to solve this problem. I installed CMS Made Simple version 1.4.1 (upgrade from 1.2.5 actually) and installed also FrontEndUsers 1.5.3 - and I am still having the wery same problem. I tried to enable debuging from configuration and set php to log errors, but there is now additional information. I am using Debian Etch, php 5.2.0 with apache 2.2.3.
Memory limit is 64M

Hello,

some unwarrantied ideas...
-increase the PHP memory
-describe the failure (how to reproduce)
-increase http error log sensitivity to max
-increase php log sensitivity to max
BTW, what is your db ?

   I increased memory limit to 128 MB, but it didn't help at all.
   I can create the error every time I choose Users & Groups, Frontend User Management from administrative inteface - it shows blank page and log shows, that Apache crashed with Segmentation fault.
  In php configuration I have error_reporting  = E_ALL and log_errors = On. I don't know any way to make php log more. I set LogLevel debug for Apache VirtualHost, under which I'm testing CMS Made Simple, but logs are still same.


I forgot - that would be mysql 5.0.32

Is it the only way to reproduce the problem ? Is it tied to the FEU module ? Does everything else work OK ?
Can you please show System Info and check System Checksum in the admin ? Any chance of a broken upload ?

I am only playing around with CMS Made Simple, since it seems to be  most like the logic of our existing web system - but we would need frontpage users functionality. I have not seen it crash in other places. And this version is not the first one I have tried - I just haven't reported earlier. Older versions also crashed in same place.
I installd FEU by Extensions, Module manager, Download and Install functionality.
I am not sure, how to check System Checksum.
System Info of CMS is following:

Cms Version: 1.4.1

Installed Modules:

    * CMSMailer: 1.73.14
    * FileManager: 0.4.1
    * MenuManager: 1.5.1
    * ModuleManager: 1.2.1
    * News: 2.8.2
    * nuSOAP: 1.0.1
    * Printing: 0.2.5
    * Search: 1.5.1
    * ThemeManager: 1.0.8
    * TinyMCE: 2.4.5
    * FrontEndUsers: 1.5.3


Config Information:

    * php_memory_limit: 80M
    * process_whole_template: true
    * max_upload_size: 40000000
    * default_upload_permission: 664
    * assume_mod_rewrite: false
    * page_extension:
    * internal_pretty_urls: false
    * use_hierarchy: false


Php Information:

    * safe_mode: Off (False)
    * phpversion: 5.2.0-8+etch13
    * memory_limit: 80M
    * max_execution_time: 3000
    * gd_version: 2
    * session_save_path: /var/lib/php5 (1733)


Server Information:

    * Server Api: apache2handler
    * Server Db Type: MySQL (mysql)
    * Server Db Version: 5.0.32

I'm short of ideas. I don't understand how a specific module can segfault the webserver.
May be try several webserver-PHP bridging : handler, old CGI, fastCGI...

I finally got around testing it some more - crash happens in function.admin_propertiestab.php in line
$this->smarty->assign('nametext',$this->Lang('name'));
Actually - simply reading $this->Lang('name') causes this to happen.
I now tested with CMS Made Simple 1.6 and FrontEndUsers 1.6.7

Additional checking:
in lib/classes/class.module.inc.php
function Lang()

array_unshift($args,'');
is successful, but segmentation fault happens on
$args[0] = $this;

And now, searching in this forum, I also found the solution:
zend.ze1_compatibility_mode = Off

Thank you for sharing this. Please edit the title of your first post in the thread to prefix it with [solved].
Have fun with CMSms
