Re: PHP / Apache bus error
Peter Risdon helpful contributes: You don't _have_ to boot into single user mode. See below. Okay, cool. I did it. Upgraded to 4.11 without any problems. However ... I still have the following problems: 1. child pid 28305 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) messages (lots of 'em) in httpd error logs. 2. Gallery doesn't work. Returns an empty page, and I get a Signal 10 in the error log. 3. Drupal doesn't work. Blank php page is returned. I'm fairly confident this is php / mysql / httpd related. So, for your reference, I have: apache+mod_ssl-1.3.33+2.8.22 php4-4.3.10_2 php4-gettext-4.3.10_2 php4-mysql-4.3.10_2 php4-pcre-4.3.10_2 php4-pear-4.3.10_2 php4-pgsql-4.3.10_2 php4-session-4.3.10_2 php4-xml-4.3.10_2 mysql-client-3.23.58 mysql-client-4.0.15 mysql-server-3.23.58 php4-mysql-4.3.10_2 zope-zmysqlda-2.0.8_1 I do not know HOW I ended up with two installs of mysql client .. but there ya go. So if anyone sees anything obvious in those versions ... I would love to hear about it. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: PHP / Apache bus error
Peter Risdon helpful contributes: You don't _have_ to boot into single user mode. See below. Okay, cool. I have one last question (me thinks) before I attempt this. (and I'll attempt it on my home server, first, even though it is a 5.3 box. At least I can get practice). On the 4.9 server, what should my supfile's tag be? *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_11 Is that right? And I assume I would then be safe doing: rm -fr /usr/src cvsup stable-supfile [ re: going from 4.x to 5.x] No, this would have some issues that you might be better avoiding right now. I've since gathered that is the case. I can see it is possible, but since the server has two drives, I think I'll wait on this, install 5.3 on the second drive, and deal with that stuff then. The only time I have ever had a problem with a remote upgrade within the 4.x tree was when _I_ made a mistake. You think you're special, eh? :c) I make some JUICY mistakes sometimes, too!! The only difference from the procedure in the handbook for a remote upgrade is that you would not boot into single user mode at any point, obviously, but instead do a normal reboot. Generally, I am the only user logged into the machine. So the only issue is running processes, which I am not all that worried about since right after the install I'm going to reboot. Do read /usr/src/UPDATING, consider what you might need in /etc/make.conf and understand how mergemaster(8) works before Starting.

I've come to the conclusion that PHP just plain sucks ;c) I am fairly consistently getting bus errors in Apache when I use PHP (or at least, I'm fairly sure it is due to PHP). One way to find out is to comment out the LoadModule php4_modulelibexec/apache/libphp4.so and AddModule mod_php4.c in httpd.conf and restart apache. I think you need to make sure this is the source of the problem before getting too involved in trying to fix it. But then, I've found most apache/php errors actually derive from some php extension and this can be traced by a process of elimination. It's often then a dependency of the extension that has been updated, or something. Entries like: ... [notice] child pid 70121 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) Or if I run Apache in stand-alone mode, I will often simply get: Bus Error and it exits immediately. I am running php4-4.3.10_2 and apache+mod_ssl-1.3.33+2.8.22 on FreeBSD 4.9 RELEASE (Generic kernel). Is this something that will clear up if I move to FreeBSD 5.3? Or is there some other known work-around? I ask because I have a 5.3 box here at home that does not seem to be exhibiting this behavior. Yes, but going to 4.11 should fix it as well.

PHP and its extensions do depend on bits of the base system. You are using the very latest ported version, so far as I can see, with an out of date world. http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html says: quote The Ports Collection supports the latest release on the FreeBSD-CURRENT and FreeBSD-STABLE branches. Older releases are not supported and may or may not work correctly with an up-to-date ports collection. Over time, changes to the ports collection may rely on features that are not present in older releases. Wherever convenient, we try not to gratuitously break support for recent releases, but it is sometimes unavoidable. When this occurs, patches contributed by the user community to maintain support for older releases will usually be committed. /quote Peter.

No, this would have some issues that you might be better avoiding right now. Going to 4.11 should be straightforward. Moving from 4.x to 5.3 is pretty complicated and a backup/reinstall is a better idea, so you can take full advantage of changes to the filesystem. The only time I have ever had a problem with a remote upgrade within the 4.x tree was when _I_ made a mistake. If you follow the handbook carefully, it should be fine. The procedure ensures you will have successfully completed the compilation of the base system (world) and kernel before either is installed. The only difference from the procedure in the handbook for a remote upgrade is that you would not boot into single user mode at any point, obviously, but instead do a normal reboot. Do read /usr/src/UPDATING, consider what you might need in /etc/make.conf and understand how mergemaster(8) works before starting.
