Segmentation Fault

I am running a PHP script from the command line that is returning
"Segmentation Fault". I run a lot of script from the command line and have
never seen this before. I don't even know where to begin.

I know that PHP is set up to run scripts from the command line and plent of
other scripts run.

This particular script is not doing anything out of the ordinary. It is
opening a database connection, opening a .csv file and inserting rows into
the database. How in the world could this Seg Fault?

Obtain a backtrace of the program (assuming your on unix):

Run gdb with php as the program:

> gdb /path/to/php


when the gdb prompt somes up type the word 'run' with the options
and filename you would normally would pass to php:

(gdb) run [options] phpfile.php

Once it finishes with your crash then type 'bt':

(gdb) bt


To kinda understand what this all means you can read this
documentation under 'Locating which function call cases fault':
