[BUG]: Route Handling Not Working on PHP 8.3

[kgrammer]

Describe the bug When updating to PHP 8.3, routes that worked fine on PHP 8.2 no longer work.

I have been able to verify the issue by running the "Hello/Sign Up" tutorial code. When run on PHP 8.2, the tutorial code works as expected. When the tutorial code is run on PHP 8.3, the hello page is replaced with a 503 error screen. This failure screen can be seen at pt.bucketlynx.com.

To Reproduce Install and execute the hello/sign up tutorial code on a PHP 8.3 server.

Expected behavior The expected behavior for the routes to function corrected as they functioned on PHP 8.3. For the tutorial, it should display the "Hello" page with the name and email input fields, then allow input. That input should be added to the tutorial's database and on the Hello screen.

Noted the following errors in the /var/log/php8.3-fpm.log file:

[12-Jan-2024 11:52:51] WARNING: [pool pt] child 66026 exited with code 127 after 0.007247 seconds from start [12-Jan-2024 11:52:51] NOTICE: [pool pt] child 66027 started [12-Jan-2024 11:52:51] WARNING: [pool pt] child 66027 exited with code 127 after 0.048859 seconds from start [12-Jan-2024 11:52:51] NOTICE: [pool pt] child 66028 started

I edited the Tutorial file IndexController.php and commented out " $this->view->users = Users::find();" line and the page loads.

Of course this means that the database records are not loaded, but the route isn't broken now so the "Hello" page is loading. I'm not getting the 127 errors above in php8.3-fpm.log either.

I then edited Users.php and added:

public function initialize(){
    error_log('***** initialize called *****' . PHP_EOL);
}

That code is not firing. This implies that the Users.php model is not being properly loaded which is, of coutrse, supported by the fact that when I comment out the find() call, the page loads.

It's worth noting that when I commented out the find(), and the register page is displayed, when I enter the name and email address, they ARE being added to the database table. So the save() is working as expected.

@kgrammer If you do not use the model and find() and say you use the builder, do you see the same results? I am trying to reproduce this here on my local but am not having much success. There are warnings in the logs from the dynamic properties but that is it.

[kgrammer]

@niden Are you referring to the query builder? If so, no... I haven't tried that because I have a LOT of code across a half dozen products and I can't change away from find() at this point.

My first assumption is that some exec command in the Phalcon code that was OK in PHP 8.2 is missing or was moved after the PHP 8.3 update. This assumption is based in the 127 errors being logged in the php8.3-fpm log file.

@niden and I worked on the issue this evening and determined that the PECL build method works, but there is an issue with the compile build method. When building using the compile method, I have the problem.

@niden is going to rebuild Phalcon on his test system using the compile build method to confirm my findings.

If confirmed, this would mean the compile build method now has a new problem that wasn't present when building for PHP 8.2.
