I'm trying to set up a server (on Ubuntu Hardy Heron) with SSH, Apache2, PHP 5.2.x, Ruby, ProFtpd, and PostgreSQL 8.3, and want to use PDO. I set up everything but the PDO, and all works beautifully - very pleased with myself as I've never touched Linux before. Then I try to set up PDO, and I plummet to earth with a thud. I run: pecl install pdo pecl install pdo_pgsql I add to php.ini: extension=pdo.so extension=pdo_pgsql.so then restart apache: /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload /etc/init.d/apache2 restart and I get the message httpd (no pid file) not running and from that point on I could not browse to my webserver, got... Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 192.168.0.100. Never had that error before until I installed PDO, and was able to get a connection. So I rebuilt the server from bottom up, documenting every step, and again all was working until I installed PDO and changed the php.ini file -- then Apache (or something) breaks. Please help -- I'm baffled -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/PDO-install-kills-webserver-tp19711249p19711249.html Sent from the Apache HTTP Server - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
