Gallery 1.4 claims newer PHP version
Hi, there. I have a Woody properly installed, which runs PHP v. 4.1.2. That's enough for me, but apparently it's not enough for the folks from Gallery, a web based photo album generator http://gallery.menalto.com/index.php. Please, take a look at this post: http://gallery.menalto.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2file=viewtopicp=61813#61813 What should I do? Recompile from source? I don't want to loose the excellent deps tree control Debian have only because I have to upgrade my PHP version. -- Arlequín _o) amahoro_AT_adinet_DOT_com_DOT_uy / \\ http://counter.li.org/ _(___V Linux Registered User #207262 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

I don't want to loose the excellent deps tree control Debian have only because I have to upgrade my PHP version. In terms of PHP, 4.1.2 really is a quite old version. You could try php from unstable tree (edit /etc/apt/sources.list, adding unstable there) then do apt-get install php. Just remember to change back your sources.list.

There's a (slightly older) version of Gallery in Debian Woody. apt-get install gallery. Then not only would you not need to upgrade php, but even gallery would take advantage of Debian's advanced package management system.

Cheers, Timo Thanks, but I wonder if that way I broke the deps tree... because at this moment, I have php4 installed in my Woody box and a couple of packages involving php4 (posgresql, mysql modules, et cetera). Woody was installed using 7 CD-ROMS, I have no http lines in my atp sources.list, just the one for security updates... :-\ -- Arlequín _o) amahoro_AT_adinet_DOT_com_DOT_uy / \\ http://counter.li.org/ _(___V Linux Registered User #207262 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

For starters, I recommend you keep a list written somewhere of what packages you've installed from backports... just in case you need to downgrade and get back to tracking only Debian Stable. First you'll need to check /etc/apache/httpd.conf and see if the newer php4 package added a LoadModule line in the appropriate place. If it didn't, you may need to add one. (If you add one, make sure you delete the LoadModule line from php 4.1.2!) Now restart Apache and see if it gives you any errors. If it doesn't, try phpinfo() again and see if it's not the newer php version. Also, if this works, don't forget that you'll also need to install backports for any other php packages you have - such as php4-mysql, php4-pear, php4-imap, etc. HTH, Jacob Everything is fine... phpinfo() shows 4.3.3 now... Upgraded the php4-mysql, php4-pear, php4-imap, php4-pgqsl packages and then dkpg-reconfigure php4-mysql dkpg-reconfigure php4-pgsql dkpg-reconfigure php4-pear dkpg-reconfigure php4-imap Restarted apache, LoadModule line: added. But now I can't run phpMyAdmin It seems the extensions for MySQL / PostgreSQL aren't recognized, but the php.ini file has them... Just in case How can I downgrade???!!! -- Arlequín _o) amahoro_AT_adinet_DOT_com_DOT_uy / \\ http://counter.li.org/ _(___V Linux Registered User #207262 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Good!
But now I can't run phpMyAdmin :(
It seems the extensions for MySQL / PostgreSQL aren't recognized,
but the php.ini file has them...
hmm... phpMyadmin seems pretty basic. I can't imagine why it wouldn't
run. It seems like there should be something basic to fix that, but
I don't know off hand. I'd suggest posting back to debian-user and
see if anyone else has had that problem before.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_get_client_info() in
/var/www/phpMyAdmin/libraries/defines.lib.php on line 47
Line 47 states:
$client_api = explode('.', mysql_get_client_info());
I suppose it's a problem with the php4-mysql package which extends php
in order to use mysql...

In my case I was fortunate enough that my users didn't know what they were missing - they were just glad that I had software that could do that sort of thing at all. (In my case, this is mainly for family and friends. I know this doesn't work in a lot of business environments. I'm fairly sure it would not work for any of my customers.) Gallery installs itself to work with the default domain for a stock Apache install. To get it working on multiple domains, you have to copy and reconfigure some stuff (I've never tried this myself, so I may be making it sound much simpler than it actually is.) If all else fails, you could always use equivs to tell dpkg and apt that you have a newer version installed.
