Re: [SLE] Problem with PHP4 and Apache

Message-ID: <3A291D30.D37A76CF@di.uoa.gr> Date: Sat, 02 Dec 2000 18:02:56 +0200 From: Rouvas Stathis Subject: Re: [SLE] Problem with PHP4 and Apache I had similar problems with PHP4 and SuSE.6.4. It seems that the installation procedure from PHP has some glitches. If you installed PHP4 from php-distros then the installation procedure is messing the Apache modules in the httpd.conf. You can tweek the httpd.conf and it will run. This procedure cost me two days. Then I found an easier procedure:-) Install the PHP4 rpm from SuSE distro. Then you will have a perfectly working Apache+PHP4 combination but without the packages you want. Then compile PHP4 from www.php.net (don't make install). Copy the .so file to the /usr/lib/apache directory and restart apache...voila! A good idea is to keep the previous .so in case something goes wrong. -Stathis. <p>"Carson, Chuck" wrote:

I compiled php4 for use as a DSO with apache 1.3.14. (apache is compiled with the following options: --enable-modules=all --enable-shared=max) and php4 iscompiled with oracle, xml, and apxs, and compiled exactly as the instructions say)

php4 builds and installs fine into /usr/local/apache/libexec/. However, when I start apache, (apachectl start) it says blah: apache started but the main server process will then die, giving me nothing to go on.

Anyone have any ideas?

This is a SMP box with 1 gig or ram running SuSE 7.0.

Thanks greatly, Chuck
