php 5.3.2 Unable to fork

Hello people!

A time before I had issues with my php 5.2.3 that would not fork anything,
neither in shell or via apache, and I figured out that commenting out the
snmp.so extension from php.ini made it fork commands passed to php cli with
an unprivileged user (www) fine, however apache still would not fork
anything.

Now I just compiled 5.3.2 and it doesn't fork at all, neither as root
with -n option.

For example I am running:
root@saturno:/usr/src/apache/php-5.3.2# ./sapi/cli/php -n -r 'echo
shell_exec("echo Test!");'
Warning: shell_exec(): Unable to execute 'echo Test!' in Command line code
on line 1

(neither system, exec, other options work)

Any ideas on what is going on?

(compiled using
.../configure --prefix=/usr --with-apxs2 --disable-cgi --disable-short-tags --disable-ipv6
--without-sqlite3 --with-mysql --with-pdo-mysql --without-pdo-sqlite --enable-sockets
--without-sqlite --with-gnu-ld)

Thanks

Re: php 5.3.2 Unable to fork

Compiling without mysql support, the cli "php -r 'echo shell_exec("echo
Test!");' works fine even as the apache unprivileged user. However when
running the test.php script with apache the error log still shows the error
Unable to execute / Unable to fork ...

back in 5.2.3 i had the same problem and found it to be the psql drivers
not mysql.. may be worth checking

I think you need to check your PATH environment variable. Add the
directory to it where your PHP interpreter sits.

PS: This just a guess. Don't bash me if I'm wrong.

Re: php 5.3.2 Unable to fork

Hi, thanks for the reply, just tried without any db bases and the scenario
did not change (besides for mysql).
With and without pear.. nothing changed from the initial scene.

Re: Re: php 5.3.2 Unable to fork

I would try your setenv path idea while compiling php without mysql, however
I don't get why compiling php with mysql does not fork nor execute even
running the php cli as root...

Thanks for the reply Nilesh!
