lshttpd+php pl_PL locale issue

[pawelz]

I have two virtual hosts configured in litespead, let's call them example.com and beta.example.com. These vhosts have very similar configuration:

--- Example.xml	2010-10-05 13:56:15.479451164 +0200
+++ ExampleBETA.xml	2010-10-05 13:55:28.741356271 +0200

The problem is, on beta.example.org locales work, while on example.org don't work. The simplest test case is the following php script:

<?php
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'pl_PL.utf-8');
echo strftime("%A %d %B %Y", time());
?>

On beta.example.com, as excpected, it prints date in polish locale:

wtorek 05 październik 2010

On example.com it prints date in C locale:

Tuesday 05 October 2010

Could you please give me some hints what I missed, why behavior of almost identical vhosts may differ?

Thanks in advance.

check phpinfo page for the locale in effective.

It seems to have something to do with memory limits.

I had increased memory limits to:

Memory Soft Limit (bytes) 400M
Memory Hard Limit (bytes) 500M

and it resolved my problem.

I did some tests to confirm that, I'm able to reproduce it: it does not work with memory limits 250M/300M, while it works with 400M/500M.

The issue is resolved for me, however It seems more workaround than solution. I don't understand why memory limit affects locale behavior. Is it bug?
