So it's not that... I am running PHP 5.2.9 but I highly doubt it is a PHP bug, here's the changes made against keyword match 'Request' between 5.2.6 > 5.2.9 though just for records sake (It means little to me though
)...
- Fixed bug #46760 (SoapClient doRequest fails when proxy is used). (Felipe)
- Fixed bug #45691 (Some per-dir or runtime settings may leak into other requests). (Moriyoshi)
- Fixed bug #45522 (FCGI_GET_VALUES request does not return supplied values).
- Fixed bug #45352 (Segmentation fault because of tick function on second
request). (Dmitry)
- Fixed bug #45312 (Segmentation fault on second request for array functions).

I can tell you that I tried every mod that you had listed on the forum (and a few that you didn't) so I obviously did not have a handle on the problem. While I would very much like to help you find it, I'm afraid my work load is not permitting at the moment.
Understandable, if the site needs to be active there's no reason for me to expect you to "try this or this"
As such we'll try hard to replicate the issue as soon as we can, keep an eye on this thread incase we ask for some extra info. And FYI, there will be many more modifications to come
some things are currently impossible to provide an on/off option for in the current code.
It's curious how the Beta 2 helped some people and in my case, the Beta 1 ends up being the hat trick. Speaking of magic hats, I suspect that your developer Daniel is beginning to get an idea where the problem must be or at least the part of the code that's not quite stable yet.
Agreed it is strange. I'll probably do a full subversion code comparison between Beta 1 and Beta 2 just to see the specific changes - hopefully that'll at least narrow it down to the possible culprit block of code. In regards to the code being unstable, well it's pretty solid I know just enough about PHP to know that Daniel knows what he's doing (and even watching the individual changes am quite impressed with his abilities) but the truth is that JoomlaComment is due for an entire re-write as it's adapted from Joomla 1.x. But of course such a thing is an immense task and is not even planned or on the roadmap at all (for JoomlaComment 5 even). Regardless, I think Daniel has a good grip on the project - any question I have he usually tells me where the code is off his memory (and is right most of the time)
No worries Dan, thanks for your bug report. We'll let you know if there's anything else we need
