Ubuntu Server Edition (Jaunty) x64 Segmentation faults in PHP mysql package

Question

I've been running Jaunty with Apache2, PHP & MySQL running drupal websites as well as python 2.6 and trac on the same server.

I'm getting quite a few segmentation faults and suhosin warnings on my drupal websites which don't seem to be related to the amount of RAM the server has (3GB) as the trac site is running happily without issues.

The issue seems to be related to PHP accessing mysql and I'm getting suhosin warnings.

Has anyone else seen this problem? Any ideas on how to fix it?

Funnily enough, it's not a consistent error, as restarts tend to fix the issue temporarily.

Answer 1

May be possibly related to this bug, for which a fix has just been released.

Binary package hint: apache2.2-common

On my production webserver, I started having segfault in my error log :
