Unfortunately, RPM isn't all that bright. Have you installed the gd library ? Try: ldd /usr/lib/apache/libphp4.so On my new webserver ( fresh install ) there is one line that catched the eye: libgd.so.4 => not found And as you, I get: kaia:~ # rcapache start Starting httpd [ PHP4 mod_perl ] see /var/log/httpd/rcapache.log for details failed kaia:~ # when trying to start Apache. Now, I install the libgd: kaia:/mnt/dvd # zgrep libgd.so.4 ARCHIVES.gz ./suse/d3/gd-devel.rpm: lrwxrwxrwx root root 14 Jan 21 21:53 /usr/lib/libgd.so -> libgd.so.4.0.0 ./suse/d2/gd.rpm: lrwxrwxrwx root root 14 Jan 21 21:53 /usr/lib/libgd.so.4 -> libgd.so.4.0.0 ./suse/d2/gd.rpm: -rwxr-xr-x root root 366175 Jan 21 21:53 /usr/lib/libgd.so.4.0.0 kaia:/mnt/dvd # rpm -ihv ./suse/d2/gd.rpm ./suse/d3/gd-devel.rpm gd ################################################## gd-devel ################################################## kaia:/mnt/dvd # cd / kaia:/ # rcapache start Starting httpd [ PHP4 mod_perl ] done kaia:/ # And presto - worked :-) -tosi Þann mánudagur 21 maí 2001 20:36 skrifaðir þú:

I tried this but it didn't change anything.

Yeah it seems the setup is buggy I had the same problem a few days ago.

Turn off apache. Uninstalled apache and php4 packages. Reinstalled them again. Turn on apache.

mk

...

Hi,

I recently re-installed my SuSE 7.1 box from scratch. I installed both Apache and PHP4 and I get the following error:

Syntax error on line 199 of /etc/httpd/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache/libphp4.so into server: shared object not open

I looked in the Support Database and did manually install the package gd but this did not help anything.

Does anybody have any clues ?

Joris.
