Description
Symfony version(s) affected
6.2.6
Description
Server setup:
PHP: 8.2.2
Server API: CGI/FastCGI
When I run a PHP script via Process, Symfony creates lots of /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php8.2 processes, which consume all RAM, server hangs and the OOM killer terminates all Apache instances.
How to reproduce
- Create a test project:
composer create-project symfony/skeleton:"6.2.*" testing
cd testing
composer require symfony/apache-pack
composer require symfony/process
config/routes.yaml:
controllers:
resource:
path: ../src/Controller/
namespace: App\Controller
type: attribute
test:
path: /test
controller: App\Controller\Test::test
src/Controller/Test.php:
<?php
namespace App\Controller;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;
use Symfony\Component\Process\PhpExecutableFinder;
use Symfony\Component\Process\Exception\ProcessFailedException;
use Symfony\Component\Process\Process;
class Test
{
public function test(): Response
{
$phpBinaryPath = (new PhpExecutableFinder())->find();
$process = new Process([$phpBinaryPath, './test.php']);
try {
$process->run();
if (!$process->isSuccessful()) {
throw new ProcessFailedException($process);
}
} catch (\Exception $e) {
throw new ProcessFailedException($process);
}
return new Response(
'result: ' . $process->getOutput()
);
}
}
public/test.php:
<?php echo 'OK';
Now open the path /test in your web browser.
Symfony starts lots of /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php8.2 processes, which consume all memory and CPU.
I supposed that the issue might be related to HTTP headers, generated by the CGI version.
However, this does not help - new Process([$phpBinaryPath, '-q', './test.php']).
If I run either command directly on the server, all is good - /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php8.2 ./test.php / /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php8.2 -q ./test.php.
If I hardcode the path to CLI PHP ($phpBinaryPath = '/bin/php';) that test script works correctly.
Possible Solution
PhpExecutableFinder should probably return the CLI version instead of CGI.
