Hey,
I have setup a test system on my home network in the past to develop & test
PHP apps by installing an ISAPI PHP dll in IIS. It worked great but now I
trying to setup a LAMP server on Debian/Lenny. I ran the following command;
aptitude install apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5
But got the following error message;
Setting up apache2-mpm-prefork (2.2.4-3) ...
Starting web server: apache2apache2: Syntax error on line 187
of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on line 3
of /etc/apache2/httpd.conf: Cannot load /etc/apache2/modules/libphp5.so into
server: /etc/apache2/modules/libphp5.so: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory
failed!
invoke-rc.d: initscript apache2, action "start" failed.
The error is pointing to this line in the httpd.conf;
LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so
But this directory or file don't exist in the /etc/apache2 directory.
Look at the top of httpd.conf for a line with "ServerRoot". That should
point to where your modules reside. If that's correct and points to the
proper modules dir with a bunch *.so files then the problem is that the
libphp5 module is MIA. If you comment out that line ("LoadModule
php5_module ...") does the server daemon start up ok?
You might try searching for libphp5.so on your machine.
I'm not familiar with installing httpd with aptitude. Is it possible
that you need to incude httpd-devel (apache2-devel?) in your install
arguments? You need that for apxs but i don't know if aptitude takes
care of that.
You could try:
aptitude purge libapache2-mod-php5
aptitude install libapache2-mod-php5
or:
apt-get remove --purge apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5
