What limits the amount of text displayed using print_r with PHP 5.4/Apache2.4

500 views

I've two machines set up with Apache2.4 and PHP5.4.15 and I'm trying to debug owncloud as it has problems with Apache2.4. This autoloader and routing 'fun' seems totally over the top, and is failing without giving any errors, but the question is "what limits the amount of text displayed using print_r() ?" Where I drop in a print statement causes crashes, but when working I'm not getting a complete printout. One machine is clipping at around 4500 characters, while the other is managing around 9000, and neither is displaying the 'TAG' labels after that block.

It's not something I've seen before ... I've been using this method for many years and normally see all the text. So can anybody throw light on why this may be happening now? Interestingly the two machines are giving different problems with this application which works correctly on Apache 2.2

phpdocumentor with PHP5.4

Anybody have phpdocumentor running with PHP5.4? I'm convinced that the errors my copy is throwing are due to e_strict, but I've confirmed that I have the right ini file ( all the needed extensions load ) and I'm getting error_reporting showing 22527 with e_strict off and 24575 with e_strict on - so at least it is changing the setting?

Once again I'm wasting hours getting something which I have had running fine on the older servers to actually work in a new setup. In this case phpdocumentor seems to suggesting *IT* needs PHP5.3 but the main script also switched e_strict off anyway, so 5.4 should work as well?

Saving session to database

I'm having a problem with webtrees ... http://webtrees.net/
My copy is running on http://webtrees.lsces.org.uk and you will see that it is throwing an error relating to the session handling.

Running Apache 2.2.22, PHP5.4.14, MySQL 5.5.31 ( http://lsces.org.uk/phpinfo.php )

If I comment out the session_set_save_handler() section of session.php then I can log in and use the site. Have tried reworking that as a SessionHandlerInterface without any success. As far as I can see, the 'write' function of the handler is not being called and while there are various notes about problems with PHP5.4 blocking access to the write and close functions, none of the fixes I have tried have resulted in a working setup.

Anybody seen this problem with PHP5.4?

http://lsces.org.uk/hg/webtrees/file/dcf6ff358108/includes/session.php#l334 is the code that seems to be failing.

doubts about pool of connections with my application developed in PHP

I have some doubts about pool of connections with my application developed in PHP. I want optimize the use of resources and database connections has a high computational cost. So the idea is keep a pool of open connections with database.
I'm using Apache webserver, language PHP and PostgreSQL database. In this case the pool of conections must be configured on Apache, PHP or PostgreSQL?
