weathermap core dumping

[Eduardo <sathler90@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks,

Some weeks ago my weathermap started to core dump ... not sure if it
is related to the "old" GD issue I found
in the docs, I dont think so, since the php ./check-gdbug.php runs fine:

Here we go...
Nope. We got past the risky part, so that's good.
Your GD library looks healthy.


At the end of the run I get the core dump and never generates the maps
in output dir:

Abort (core dumped)

versions I have running:

cacti-0.8.7b.2_2
rrdtool-1.4.3
gd-2.0.35_7,1
php52-5.2.13_2
php52-gd-5.2.13_2


my weathermap is at version 0.95b and it is running as a cacti plugin
OS is FreeBSD 7.3 i386  ( I had the same problem on 7.1)

running php ./check.php
==================


This PHP uses the 'bundled' GD library, which doesn't have alpha-blending
bugs. That's good!

The Console_Getopt PEAR module is available. That's good!

OK! Your PHP and server environment *seems* to have support for ALL of the
Weathermap features. Make sure you have run this script BOTH as a web page
and from the CLI to be sure, however.
You have new mail.

Just now I did the upgrade to weathermap 0.97a  ... core dump after
running the command line with debug option on

running the php ./check-gdbug.php after the upgrade
===========================================

Here we go...

...nope. We got past the risky part, so that's good.
Your GD library looks healthy.



I already recompiled all the ports related to cacti as well as the
lib* ports   ... I´m running out of ideias ... any suggestions are
appreciated.

thanks!
