Dear all,

I hope you can me. I am running FreeBSD 6.2 and I decided to
upgrade from php 4.4.7_1 to php5-5.2.3_1. However, after removing php4
and installing php5 and php5-extensions I am unable to start apache.

What do the Apache error logs say?

Nothing that would be of :

httpd-error.log
[Wed Sep 12 09:04:17 2007] [notice] mod_security/1.9.4 configured

A new such line is added when I try to start apache. Apache does not
start even when I use non-ssl option (apachectl start).

messages:
Sep 12 12:04:44 szalbot kernel: pid 26602 (httpd), uid 0: exited on
signal 11 (core dumped)

Many thanks!

Migrating from v4 to v5 is not necessarily straight forward.
Depending on what features you've used, you may have to rewrite some of
your code. For instance, we used the xslt sablotron interface, which
no longer exists in php5. Had to rewrite, which as it turns out was
not too much effort, but I'm sure there are other more complex
examples.

No, basically I just use wordpress on this site and that's all. No
fancy or advanced scripting, etc. It is family machine for family
issues. I can try and go back to v4 but I do think v5 should work just
as fine. At least I hope so.

Thank you!

Hi Zbigniew

Maybe it's worth doing some googling for wordpress and php5? If it's
not your code, it's not easy to debug. I have seen the apache core
dump many times, sometimes caused by obvious errors, other times by
something obscure and difficult to find.

Does phpinfo work? What does it say?

Also, when you have problems like this, he best to do is put error
reporting to E_ALL and display_errors=on.

Come on guys, use your heads. PHP is segfaulting when trying to display
its version number - that's not going to have anything to do with Wordpress.

To the OP: This probably means you've got a rogue extension in the mix.
Edit /usr/local/etc/php/extensions.ini and put a # in front of every
line. Try php -v again. If it works then you need to uncomment (remove
the #) each line in that file one by one checking php -v each time until
you find the one that's a problem.

If it's an extension you need I suggest you uninstall and rebuild it. If
not then just leave it commented and move on to the next.

If php -v still segfaults with all the extensions disabled then you need
to uninstall PHP and all the extensions completely and start again
because something obviously went wrong when you built them.
