Topic: PHP 7.3.7 RPMS - segfaulting on every request

I am reporting a problem with the latest release. I have a CentOS 7.6 server, running PHP via PHP-FPM, which updated to 7.3-1.el7.remi overnight. Now, every page request results in a segfault (and resulting HTTP 500).

Restarting PHP-FPM does not fix it. Setting opcache.enable=0 in /etc/opt/remi/php73/php.d/10-opcache.ini and restarting PHP-FPM does fix it. (Setting it back to 1 breaks it again).

Example syslog lines at https://pastebin.com/0SfxTgGR - the forum software complained if I posted them directly.

P.S. The changelog mentions a PHP 7.3.7 changelog URL which does not exist (I can't post the link - the forum complains).

Re: PHP 7.3.7 RPMS - segfaulting on every request

See https://github.com/remicollet/remirepo/issues/122

And try the proposed workaround (waiting for the new build)

Laptop:  Fedora 38 + rpmfusion + remi (SCL only)
x86_64 builder: Fedora 39 + rpmfusion + remi-test
aarch64 builder: RHEL 9 with EPEL
Hosting Server: CentOS 8 Stream with EPEL, rpmfusion, remi

Thank you - opcache.optimization_level=0x7FFEBF7F - works around it successfully for me.

Thanks for the feedback

Because 7.3.7 is not yet announced

See: https://blog.remirepo.net/pages/English-FAQ#qa

Which exactly the case encountered today.


Sadly, not enough people try the RC versions, despite they are widely available (at least Microsoft and me provide builds)

So, sorry to have provide broken builds, but thanks to some reports, we will be able to announce 7.3.7 tomorrow, I hope without any regression.
