Dear MediaWiki development team,

MediaWiki doesn't seem to be working on the latest version of PHP (5.2.0), MySQL (5.1.14beta) and ZEND
(3.2?).

I have tried to install MediaWiki for some days now. I am hosted with prohosters.com who install
anything upon request and have an elite techteam available for the most dificult issues and
demands/configurations.

After 3 full reinstalations of PHP 5.2 by 3 difrent techs, they forwarded the issue to their elite
techteam called Escalated techs. They have spend mutliple hours trying to solve the problem, and upgrade
MySQL from 5.1.11 to 5.1.14beta and tried to solve the problem.

When ZEND is disabled MediaWiki works fine, when enabled however it doesn't work anymore.

Best Regards,
Jan Jaap Hakvoort

Found database drivers for: MySQL PostgreSQL

It's a blocker for all users using the latest version of PHP 5.2.0 wich is even recomended by MediaWiki!

It's not a blocker for me, and I use PHP 5.2.0. I'm guessing it's another
reincarnation of one of several Zend weirdness issues.

Please don't mess about with priorities; they're there for our use.

Hello, it's a ZEND bug yes. But since a lot of users use zend it's a blocker for those users.

Jan Jaap, won't it be better to file a bug with zend about it ? If you want
tips on how to collect a backtrace for this, I can give you some help for that

As discussed on IRC, workaround is to set $wgDisableCounters = true;
This is probably a low-level problem with Zend Optimizer.

ZendOptimizer: 3.2.0 or 3.0.2
mysql: 5.0.27

my wrong notice is :PHP has encountered an Access Violation at 02533F62

I can confirm that the $wgDisableCounters = true; in the localsettings.php fixed
my problem.

I am using:

Mediawiki 1.8.2
Php 5.2.0 (cgi)
Zend Optimizer 3.2.0
Linux
MySQL 4.1.21
