Always start by looking at output of: <?php phpinfo();?> I would make a WILD GUESS that you need to edit the php.ini mentioned there and add a new line to enable the extension 'syck' You'd think the fancy package installers would do that for you, but they often make invalid assumptions about where your php.ini file lives, and edit the wrong file, and... If you get it right (don't forget to re-start Apace!) then you SHOULD see 'syck' listed as an extension in your <?php phpinfo();?> If it ain't listed, you didn't install it right. You may also want to try to compile PHP and syck from source: http://trac.symfony-project.com/wiki/InstallingSyck I never even heard of syck until now, and only did the Google for you, really... The syck people and/or the Ubunty/Debian folks may be better prepared to help you, depending on what is actually going wrong, as I doubt too many readers here ever heard of syck either... -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
