5 Segmentation fault - ID: 1951087
Last Update: Comment added ( nemethl )

I get a segmentation fault when I call hunspell from a PHP application
using shell_exec() or exec(). This happens for all versions >=1.1.6. For
all version <=1.1.5 it runs fine though. It also works without problems on
the command line, so I guess it is somehow related to the locale encoding.


I tested with default installations of PHP on Ubuntu 7.10, 8.4 and Debian
4. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Fixed in Hunspell 1.2.3. Thanks, Laci

Here is my test PHP code:

<?
$word = $_POST["word"];
?>
<html><title>Hunspell example</title>
<body>
<h1>Hunspell suggestions</h1>

<form method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF;?>">
Word: <input type="text" size="12" maxlength="12" name="word">
<input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit"><br />
</form>

<?
echo "<h2>", $word, "</h2>";
if ($word != "") {
exec('echo ' . $word . ' | hunspell -d en_US', $a);
if (sizeof($a) > 1) echo $a[sizeof($a)-2];
}
?>

</html>
</body>

Michel, the problem may be the Hunspell incompatibility of the restricted
environment of PHP shell_exec. Could you run Hunspell with different
options, for example, -h, -D, or setting environmental variables "HOME=/tmp
/usr/bin/hunspell", and report the results? Thanks in advance, László
