[PHP3] PHP3 and LDAP From: Baba Z Buehler (baba <email protected>)
Date: 07/14/98

I've got a little script that uses some information from our LDAP server
(basically just looks up names). The problem is that if the ldap_search() or
ldap_list() call returns more than a few entries, everything core dumps. This
doesn't happen every time, but most of the time---sometimes it runs just file.

I'm running PHP (3.0.1) as an Apache (1.3) module, and Apache says:

[Tue Jul 14 16:30:42 1998] [notice] httpd: child pid 2296 exit signal Segmentation Fault (11)

when this happens. The LDAP Server (Netscape 3.1) logs show the connection,
the search and the result (in this case, 61 entries). Then the client abruptly
disconnects (when Apache segfaults).

This is the code, the segfault is happening in the ldap_list call.

$ldap = ldap_connect("our.ldap.server");
ldap_bind($ldap);
$result = ldap_list($ldap,"ou=People,o=canis","(objectClass=Person)");

Since this works fine if I use a filter that returns a small number of entries,
I'm assuming this is a buffer problem somewhere. Any ideas?

thanks,
b
