That sounds like a nice hint. Unfortunately there seems to be no error in the apache2 error logfile - This must have been near the time, when the strange behaviour began: [Mon Dec 06 14:58:07 2004] [warn] NameVirtualHost 82.165.42.181:80 has no VirtualHosts [Mon Dec 06 14:58:09 2004] [notice] Apache/2.0.49 (Linux/SuSE) configured -- resuming normal operations [Mon Dec 06 14:58:09 2004] [warn] long lost child came home! (pid 1482) ...But as I saw in the Apache2 documentation, the warning 'long lost child came home' isn't that bad and can occur time by time. Any ideas? -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Jason Wong [mailto:php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Gesendet: Montag, 6.

It sounds like what would happen when your PHP aren't being processed and Apache's just dumping the file contents (ie your source code) to the browser. > After restarting apache2 > the problem was gone for about 2 hours, but then it came back. > As first reaction I visited my log files instantly, but nothing looked > different there.

The access logs won't tell you much. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * ------------------------------------------ Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general ------------------------------------------ /* BOFH Excuse #71: The file system is full of it */ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
