Tonight, my Apache instance (OSX 10.5.5 Apache/2.2.9 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.9 OpenSSL/0.9.7l DAV/2 PHP/5.2.5 ) threw a segmentation fault when I tried to use one of my Models from the app_controller. In my code, this is how I had this setup:
I discovered this by systematically commenting out every piece of code that was implementing my Contentpage model. When I commented out the $uses variable, the segmentation fault went away.
So now my code reads like this to remind me.
I've seen some issues in the CakePHP trac regarding segmentation faults, but nothing of this exact same nature.
As a side note, I thought I would try to use it from another controller. Initially this worked fine, but when it ran functions inside of obAuth, I got very unpredictable results. I'm still not really sure exactly what the nature of that error was. While I was debugging this, the segmentation fault started up again.
At any rate, I found a way to work around this so it doesn't hinder my work by putting a different layout on the controllers and actions that I originally wanted this functionality to execute on. However, I'm not sure what I'll do if I need a Model available to the app controller.
Has anyone else had this issue?
class AppController extends Controller {
var $helpers = array('Html', 'Javascript', 'ForLayout', 'Tree');
var $components = array('Session', 'obAuth', 'Cookie');
var $uses = array('Contentpage'); /* THIS IS THE OFFENDING LINE */
...
}
