After restarting Apache 2.2 with mod_php and letting it run for half an hour or so, PHP stops respecting calls to error_reporting() to alter the current error level. All calls to error_reporting() for the current connection will not update the actual level. This behavior will occur with only *some* of the connections, but not all of them. Reloading the page (after waiting for the keep alive to time out) will sometimes result in the expected behavior, and others will result in the erroneous behavior. As a side effect, this causes all supporting libraries that rely on error suppression, like Smarty, to throw errors. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: <?php var_dump(error_reporting()); var_dump(error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE ^ E_USER_NOTICE)); trigger_error('This should not be seen', E_USER_NOTICE); echo $a; // should cause a notice var_dump(error_reporting()); ?> Actual Results: int(6143) int(6143) <br /> <b>Notice</b>: This should not be seen in <b>/home/gabebug/public_html/error_reporting_tests.php</b> on line <b>5</b><br /> <br /> <b>Notice</b>: Undefined variable: a in <b>/home/gabebug/public_html/error_reporting_tests.php</b> on line <b>6</b><br /> int(6143) Expected Results: int(6143) int(6143) int(5111) $ emerge --info Portage 2.1.3.9 (hardened/x86/2.6, gcc-3.4.6, glibc-2.5-r4, 2.6.20-hardened-r5 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.20-hardened-r5 i686 Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.00GHz Timestamp of tree: Mon, 24 Sep 2007 04:50:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 3.2_p17 dev-lang/python: 2.3.5-r3, 2.4.4-r5 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r6 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.9-r2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.17-r1 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.16 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.24 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.21 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -pipe -O2" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/bind /var/qmail/alias /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/gconf /etc/php/apache2-php4/ext-active/ /etc/php/apache2-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi-php4/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php4/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php5/ext-active/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -pipe -O2" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.osuosl.org/ http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo/ http://ftp.ucsb.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/gentoo/ http://gentoo.chem.wisc.edu/gentoo/" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages --filter=H_**/files/digest-*" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.us.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="acl apache2 bzip2 chroot cli cracklib crypt ctype curl examples expat gd hardened hpn jpeg midi mpm-prefork multiuser munin-apache mysql nls nptl nptlonly pam pcre pic png posix readline ruby sendfile session sftplogging ssl symlink tcpd threads unicode urandom utf8 vchroot vhosts x86 xml xorg zlib" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="mouse keyboard" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" USERLAND="GNU" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS $ cat /etc/php/apache2-php5/php.ini |grep -v \;
