I have just upgraded a web server to use apache 1.3.29 with php 4.3.4.
Since this upgrade (from php 4.1.1) a number of our PHP paes have come up
with errors complaining that safe mode is in operation and that as UIDs
don't match the page cannot be served.
Safe mode is NOT switched on globally either in php.ini or in the
httpd.conf file for that part of the web site. The only place we use safe
mode is in a different virtual host where staff and students are able to
create their own pages. Not only that, if you refresh the offending page
in the browser, the page is usually served correctly without errors. I
have emptied my browser cache but this makes no difference, the problem
still occurs from time to time.
Has anyone else seen this strange behaviour? Have you any suggestions
what to look for?
