HTTPD times out with PHP include files on CENTOS5

bhedrington · 12-21-2009, 05:39 AM

Errors Only happen on external addresses: (Not on my local network 192.x.x.x).

Web page times out under the following conditions:

Web page (PHP) index.php
Includes many files (PHP INCLUDE STATEMENT)

The include files use imagemap or images from a server...

Ex:
<area shape="rect" coords="856,23,951,46" href="http://www.example.com/redirect.cgi?ss=<?php echo "$ss"; ?>&page=example/index" target="_blank" alt="Some random text" />

If this line is in the file it will timeout on ONLY external clients (not on the 192.x.x.x network)

This exact code WORKED on another centos server so I'm thinking there is something I'm missing on setup or access controls.

If I just put in some generic php or html the file loads at the remote web browsers just fine.

It seems to be the alt tags or reference to img maps/images that cause the issues. I can echo the statement through php and get the same issue.

Checked for unprintable chars...

I've been working on this tonight to no avail...

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Is there any clue in the Apache error logs? (assuming your using Apache). Also, what time-out settings do you have set in php.ini, and I noticed your using short-tags '<?', are these enabled in php.ini?

Yes I am using apache and no message in the error logs. The access log show the access but no transfer of datd (ex: the .jpg file).

The php works just fine unless I call an external fuke such as a ,jpg and the file works 100% including the external file if I hit the web page from my internal network.

Thanks

Also tried it without the PHP same problem as with the php included.
