Martin, thank you for writing and offering your advice. Unfortunately, it
doesn't seem to have helped. I tried to follow your suggestions throughly. I
purged all the php4* packages, then ran 'apt-get clean' to remove all vestiges
of them. After 'updatedb', 'locate php4' didn't produce any returns.
I then 'apt-get install php4-mysql' which installed 'php4' as well as
'php4-mysql'. The install seemed to go well, but restarting Apache produced
this error in the web logs:
PHP Warning: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php4/20010901/mysql.so'
- /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.10: symbol errno, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in
file libc.so.6 with link time reference in Unknown on line 0
I pasted in the entire dialog when I was installing php4-mysql, at the end of
this message, in case there were any remnants of the 'testing' distribution
left, which I suspect is still the problem.
I'm going to write this problem to the debian-users list, but if you or anyone
else know how I can revert a system with some packages in 'testing' to all
Debian 'stable', this is what I'd like to try next.
Thanks, again, for your help and suggestions.

I'm trying to fix PHP and MySQL on a Debian woody system that might be pretty
messed up. The system has some parts, perhaps some libraries, in Debian
testing with the bulk of the system in stable. I thought it's been running
okay since I made these system changes, but today I had to reboot it and php
and MySQL failed.
I've removed and reinstalled the Debian packages from stable:
cn2:/var/www/centernet/htdocs/phpmyadmin# apt-get install -t stable php4
php4-cgi php4-common php4-mysql php4-mcal php4-cli
[snip]
Is it normal that the php4, php4-mysql, php4-mcal and php4-cgi versions are
all 4.1.2, but that php4-common and php4-cli are 4.3.10?
[snip]
I tried linking or copying the files in 20010901 to 20020429, but that gave
an error about a mismatch.
Any suggestions on what I can try to get this system back in working order?
If possible, I'd like to stay within the Debian system, using Debian package
management commands rather than downloading source and recompiling.
Thanks for reading through all this and for your advice and suggestions.
php4-cli and php4-common don't exist in stable, it's pulling from
testing - I expect you've got apt-pining setup:
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=php4searchon=namessubword=1version=allrelease=all
so I would start there...
apt-get remove php4-common php4-cli php4-mysql;
apt-get update;
apt-get install php4-mysql;
see how that goes. You might need to re-remove everything. When all is
said and done check your php.ini, in case it has remaining lines
pointing at wrong libs/etc.
cheers,

I see you have apache webserver installed and so far you haven't
used the apache module version of php4 in your apache. If you
want to use it, you should reconfigure the apache webserver and
select to load the php module. I can call the apacheconfig script
now for you to do it, or you can insert the following line into
/etc/apache/httpd.conf manually:
LoadModule php4_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/libphp4.so
Do you want me to run the apacheconfig script now [y/N] ? y
WARNING: Use of apacheconfig has been deprecated!
apache-modconf should be used instead.

You are installing MySQL support for php4, but it's not
enabled in your /etc/php4/apache/php.ini.
To enable it you need to add this line:
extension=mysql.so
Do you want me to add it now
