Apache+PHP suddenly not working

Jason Lixfeld <jason-lists.apache@xxxxxxxxxx> · Tue, 27 Oct 2009 15:01:55 -0400

I have no doubt that this is due to an update that was done on my  

system at some point, but unfortunately I can't pinpoint where.  The  

upshot is that PHP is completely unresponsive for me when run from  

Apache and I'm not sure where to look.  I recognize that this isn't a  

PHP support list.  This message is being cc'd there too.

The system is FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p15.  PHP 5.2.11 from ports.  Apache  

2.2.13 from ports.

I have a .php that calls phpinfo(); that shows a blank screen when hit  

from a browser.

My problem is that I don't know how to troubleshoot this.

I can seem to run PHP from the CLI just fine, so does this look more  

like an apache issue or perhaps some php module or extension that  

talks to apache?

Any ideas for a completely ignorant, non-developer type?

Thanks in advance.
