critical error mesage on win2k & XP apache2.0.35

["firepages.com.au" <fi...@firepages.com.au>]

this is the error log I get after an infrequent crash on
apache2.0.35/php4.2.0
sometimes I get the error and apache dies... sometimes not, its a php
generated page (phpwebsite) and I have had no previous problems on 1.3.2*

//the restart is apache after the crash - not me//

replace stderr with /dev/null

the /dev/null bit worries me :) - I appreciate that php4.2 is experimental
with apache 2 but can you tell from this error any information that might
help narrow it down for me, again, sometimes these pages run without error,
but if 1 error does occur only a restart will let me use apache 'on these
pages' again.

?
