Description: ------------ The commands config-show, config-get and config-set doesn't work as expected in PEAR 1.3.5. I always receive a segmentation fault when no layer is specified. The default layer is not chosen automatically. I use a self-compiled PHP 5.0.3 on a Slackware 10.0 box.

Hi, A segmentation fault is by definition a bug in PHP, not in PEAR. However, this may be caused by an out-of-bounds array access or attempting to instantiate a non-existent object. If you can find the line that causes the seg fault, I might be able to help. Until then, this is considered a fault in your PHP. In other words, try the same thing in PHP 4 on your system, does it segfault? Thanks, Greg

Unfortunately I can't find out which line causes the error right now, because the only output is the "Segmentation fault", which makes it difficult to track. I haven't tested it with PHP 4, because I'm only running PHP 5 on my box. It worked with PEAR 1.3.4, so I thought it might be a PEAR problem. Sorry for that. Maybe I should have spent more time on searching before writing a bug report. Sorry again.

To get more information, please re-compile PHP 5 --with-debug=on and follow the instructions at php.net to generate a backtrace (google it if you are not familiar with this procedure). Honestly, this bug probably exists in PEAR 1.3.4 as well - if you compare PEAR/Config.php in 1.3.4 to PEAR/Config.php in 1.3.5, they are identical. The only changes in PEAR 1.3.5 were to PEAR/Command/RunTest.php, and PEAR/Builder.php Greg

Cannot reproduce using either 5.0.3 or cvs HEAD. Please try with a recent cvs snapshots (snaps.php.net) or fetch the sources from cvs (php-src). You should try without xdebug as well. Does it work with HEAD or without xdebug? --Pierre

It is a problem with xdebug. When xdebug is disabled in the php.ini it works again.

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PEAR itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PEAR, please visit http://pear.php.net/support/ as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PEAR. not a pear issue, neither PHP.
