[Tikiwiki-devel] Installer causes internal server error with PHP 5.3.2

[Filipus K. <ch...@gm...>]

Hi,
today I tested Tiki on a new machine with a fresh install of Debian testing 
and found the installer wouldn't upgrade or install Tiki. Instead, I got an 
empty file or a 500 error, with any Tiki version. The Apache error log revealed 
there was a child (PHP) segfault. I asked on IRC and Sylvie said she had the 
same issue on Fedora. Another confirmation of the problem came from RavenC, who 
experienced the problem on Windows. I tried upgrading my previous install to 
5.3.2 and could confirm that upgrading to 5.3.2 (from 5.3.1) causes the 
problem.

We don't really know what the bug is. I asked ##php if there was a list of 
regressions and didn't get a reply. I also asked how to debug a PHP segfault 
and got nothing more.

So I decided to downgrade to 5.3.1, which fixes the problem. I intend to wait 
PHP 5.3.3 and retest before investigating this issue in more depth.

Thanks to Sylvie and RavenC
