Description Barns 2007-02-06 13:08:50 UTC
Windows 2003 server
Apache 2.2.4
PHP 5.2.0 (loaded as module, PHP memory_limit was set to 32M)
Mediawiki 1.9.0

We get very frequent out of memory messages, forcing us to restart Apache. 

PHP Fatal error:  Out of memory (allocated 9175040) (tried to allocate 1572864
bytes) in D:\\websites\\mediawiki\\languages\\messages\\MessagesEn.php on line

This matches the description of PHP bug 39438:

http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=39438

Please try downgrading to PHP 5.1.6, or upgrading to the current 5.2.x snapshot
from http://snaps.php.net/ .

Ok, will try one of these and come back to you.
Thanks for the help,

Yann
Comment 5 Barns 2007-02-12 13:25:26 UTC
- upgraded to PHP 5.2.1
- upgraded to Mediawiki 1.9.2
- disabled "Win32DisableAcceptEx" in Apache

Memory usage from Apache went from an average of 200MB to 30MB...
So it seems indeed there was some serious leakage in PHP 5.2.0, maybe worth
adding to the installation notes.

thanks for the help. Change resolution to "invalid", as this is not a mediawiki
issue.
