Bug 74486 – apache1 + mod_php5 = some problem

• Status: RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Sergiy Borodych 2004-12-15 05:55:38 UTC]

I have installed apache1 (net-www/apache-1.3.33) on my machine (~x86)
After installing php5 + mod_php5 (dev-php/mod_php-5.0.2)
I make 
#ebuild /var/db/pkg/dev-php/mod_php-5.0.2/mod_php-5.0.2.ebuild config

# /etc/init.d/apache start
 * Starting apache ...
Syntax error on line 62 of /etc/apache/conf/apache.conf:
Cannot load /etc/apache/extramodules/libphp5.so into server: /etc/apache/extramodules/libphp5.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory                                                                                       

Fix is
#ln -s /usr/lib/apache/libphp5.so /etc/apache/extramodules/libphp5.so

but php pages show as sources
In
/etc/apache/conf/addon-modules/mod_php.conf
only
<IfModule mod_php4.c>
directive exists
I added <IfModule mod_php5.c> section
and all works fine

maybe this problems need fix in ebuild ?

Same goes on ppc for dev-php/mod_php-5.0.3 ! 

We have to make sure to have : 
LoadModule php5_module              /usr/lib/apache/libphp5.so
in apache.conf instead of : 
LoadModule php5_module    extramodules/libphp5.so

There is another stuff at the end of emerge that creates a small problem :
no mod_php5.conf : 
...
* Setting extension_dir in php.ini
* Securing fopen wrappers
* Setting correct include_path
* Adding extra symlink to Apache extramodules for PHP
* Installing a Apache config for PHP (mod_php5.conf)
  install: ne peut

  install: ne peut évaluer     `/usr/portage/dev-php/mod_php/files/mod_php5.conf': Aucun fichier ou
    répertoire de ce type

The bug is easy to fix : in the ebuild change : 
doins ${FILESDIR}/mod_php5.conf
with 
doins ${FILESDIR}/mod_php.conf

The dirty work around I used at the time (before studying the ebuild) was : 
cd /etc/apache/conf/addon-modules
curl -o mod_php.conf http://gentoo.kems.net/gentoo-x86-portage/dev-php/mod_php/files/70_mod_php5.conf

Clearly fixing the ebuild would be better

This is happening for me as well.

This seems to be a php problem, not an apache one, though there are new (masked) apache ebuilds in portage and the mod_*'s maintainers where encouraged to switch to the new apache-module.eclass, so this should be fixed soon...

Please re-test with mod_php-5.0.4.
