WinFbbSlide

I'm running the latest version of WinFbbSlide and am getting a PHP segmentation fault when any of the FbbSlide php pages are loaded. Here is some system information:

PHP Version: php5-5.2.0-12
Apache Version: apache2-2.2.3-20

Error message in /var/log/apache2/error_log:

[Sun May 06 07:49:01 2007] [notice] child pid 11343 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

Is WinFbbSlide compatible with this version of PHP? Any idea how to get it working?

Thanks!

Bill

Bill,

Thanks for your report. Here, I use on my server PHP 5.2.0 with apache 2.2.3 on a suse linux 10.2

I'll try to make some more tests to see I am able to reproduce your problem.

Did you use a previous version of WinFbbSlide on your server ?

I'll keep you informed via the forum.

I was running fbbslide on Red Hat 9. I believe it used php4. I'm running OpenSUSE 10.2 now.

I wonder if there is something wrong with the index.php that is being generated that php5 doesn't like? Other php pages open up fine. Does anyone know how to increase the loglevel that php reports to apache so that I can hopefully find out what line it's failing on?

Thanks!

Yes there is certainly something wrong with PHP5. The server which runs the the site and the demonstration uses PHP4.

I have almost the same configuration here so we should find the problem.

I'll make the tests to morrow.

Bill,

You will find http://www.winfbbslide.org/Alpha/WinFbbSlide229-test2.exe

This version should fix the problem under PHP 5.2.0 - From this version of PHP a security fix gave a problem with WinFbbSlide.

I hope this will fix your problem.

Tell me if all is now OK.

Good news and bad news. The good news is that I no longer get the segmentation fault. The bad news is that the images aren't displayed. I can see the hierarchy on the left, but when I click on one of the albums, no images are shown that the hierarchy collapses. You can see for yourself here: http://brazell.dyndns.org/photos/index.php

Here is what the apache log shows: [Mon May 07 18:27:07 2007] [error] [client 192.168.1.200] PHP Notice: Undefined variable: txt in /srv/www/htdocs/photos/index.php on line 465, referer: http://brazell.dyndns.org/photos/index.php?d=Visitors

Here is what is on line 465: $txt .= "<div class=\"thb\"><table width=\"100%\">\n";

Thanks for your help with this.

I made more exaustive tests, but I had to make many changes in the PHP code to be compatible with 5.2.0.

Could you please test this new version and tell me if now all is correct. I hope not to have made regressions elsewhere in the code.

Hooray! It works fine now!

I'm not sure how you want to package it to work with both versions of PHP, or have separate code bases. All I know is that I'm very happy that you were able to get it working. Thank you very much!

Bill,

I have to check but the code should be down compatible with previous versions of PHP.

If you dont see anymore problem I'll distribute it as a 2.3 version.
