XP Framework & APC

at 2010-01-24 in PHP5 by friebe (0 comments)

Recently, I got an email from Jan, who has to websites running the XP Framework and who had upgraded his PHP to 5.2.12, asking for assistance with these sites being disfunctional and the following extracts from the web server's error log:

  [Sun Jan 17 12:46:43 2010] [error] PHP Fatal error:  Interface 'Generic' not found
  [Sun Jan 17 12:37:34 2010] [error] PHP Fatal error:  Allowed memory size ... exhausted

After some research work we found out the problem wasn't caused by the new PHP version but instead by the APC extension he had installed. We can reproduce this problem even on the command line, and it seems to be related to PECL bug #16860. The workarounds suggested in this bug that work for some only relieve these problems partially, although a simple site then works the XP core unittests show that there are still problems.

The XP Framework team suggests not to use APC with the XP Framework for the time being.
