Greetings; Well over the course of the last 10 hours or so since I got on this list = I've fixed part of my problems. SSH is working along with mysql (I = deleted the one I downloaded and used apt-get and got it that way), it = runs, it does not start automatically but I'll work on that later; its = there at least.
Now my problem is I have apache running, I removed it via apt-get and then = put it back in (went and deleted all the directories it said had files in = thtem to get rid of any conf files it left behind) and reinstalled it; in = the same apt-get command I also attempted to do php4 and php4-mysql (going = off memory on that one so dont' shoot me if its wrong). Well apache got = installed and is running, the php looks installed along with its support = for mysql; BUT apt-get IS NOT modifying the httpd.conf file to load php. = Reading the install manual for php I find I need to uncomment the line to = load the module, a given, and also to uncomment the AddType line in my = apache.conf fiel (I'm using httpd.conf). So I do, and then I restart apache with "apachectl restart" and my tail on = the error log gives me the following: [Sun Oct 27 19:37:07 2002] [notice] SIGHUP received. Attempting to = restart [Sun Oct 27 19:37:08 2002] [error] (2)No such file or directory: mod_mime_m= agic: can't read magic file /etc/apache/share/magic [Sun Oct 27 19:37:08 2002] [notice] Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) Debian GNU/Linux = configured -- resuming normal operations [Sun Oct 27 19:37:08 2002] [notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper: = /usr/lib/apache/suexec) [Sun Oct 27 19:37:08 2002] [notice] Accept mutex: sysvsem (Default: = sysvsem) [Sun Oct 27 19:40:54 2002] [notice] SIGHUP received. Attempting to = restart PHP Fatal error: Unable to start session mm module in Unknown on line 0 so I go and recomment the lines I had uncommented run the command again = and I get the following: [Sun Oct 27 19:43:01 2002] [warn] pid file /var/run/apache.pid overwritten = -- Unclean shutdown of previous Apache run? [Sun Oct 27 19:43:01 2002] [notice] Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) Debian GNU/Linux = configured -- resuming normal operations [Sun Oct 27 19:43:01 2002] [notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper: = /usr/lib/apache/suexec) [Sun Oct 27 19:43:01 2002] [notice] Accept mutex: sysvsem (Default: = sysvsem) Searching google, I find lots of people with this problem, but I can't = find solutions about what to do. You can find a copy of my httpd.conf file = at: http://acm.cs.uop.edu/httpd.txt So now I'm very confused what to do next. Mark
