Look at the output all those libaries are in /lib. /lib is a real
directory as of Solaris 10 not a symlink to /usr/lib as it was on
previous 5.x releases of SunOS.
Why did you change that? Put /lib on the root fs?
It was part of the removal of all static libraries for core system
delivered libraries.
Neither Apache 1.x or 2.x use bash on Solaris best I can tell, all the
scripts I can see for starting up httpd (the SMF method script and
apachectl and everything else in /usr/apache2/bin) all use /bin/sh.
Using /bin/sh is so yuk. You guys really have problems with masochism :)
We have a very strong commitment to backwards compatibility in Solaris.
Nobody is forcing you or anyone else to use /bin/sh as your personal
users login shell, nor are you forced to write shell scripts in it.
Lets not make this a "my shell is better than your shell discussion" or
"shell XXX should be the default shell". OpenSolaris aliases have had
too many of those already.
Are we talking about Sun's Solaris Express distribution of OpenSolaris
or are you running Nextena or some other distro ?
Solaris 9,10 with Blastwave and Apache packages.
That then is a Blastwave issue not an OpenSolaris one.
The Apache 1.x and Apache 2.x both delivered in Solaris Express which is
an OpenSolaris distribution do NOT use bash.

Rename what to what ?
mv /usr/xpg4/bin/sh /usr/xpg4/bin/sh.bak
Why did you do that ?
What were you trying to achieve ?
