We are pleased to make available packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3/ Fedora Core 1 with mcrypt, mhash, and imagick support.

These packages are also compatible with Ensim 3.7

If upgrading to this version from a prior RPM set; you may need to uninstall and remove libmhash2 (and devel), libmcrypt (and devel) packages as we now use the dag repository packages to support these RPM's - these are at

http://dag.wieers.com/packages/libmcrypt
http://dag.wieers.com/packages/libmhash

Installation is via rpm -Fvh *.rpm (after downloading it to a new folder).

If you need any of the extensions please make sure that you have the needed dependancies installed first.

Thank's gpan, but I have a question.
I have Ensim 3.7 Fedora Core 1 with MySQL 4.0.18

I can't find php-mysql4 rpm in http://download.cheetaweb.com/fedora/1/php/4.3.6/
Can you help me please...?

http://download.cheetaweb.com/fedora/1/php.mysql4/

thanx gpan, i'm thinking of installing:

to get the latest php and mysql ( i need those more than anything else lol )


but im on an emsin basic box, would that make ensim unable to start/stop/restart mysql?


also, what commands would i use in an ssh shell to upgrade from my mysql 3.xx.xx and php 4.3.2 to the versions in your rpm?


should i stop mysqld first?

It should work with Ensim Basic 3.7; you probably need to follow the MySQL howto to upgrade it first; then update php. Geoff

Well, we just recently tried a Fedora install and it messed up HORRIBLY so we had to pay to get a RHEL drive stuck in there. We restored a few sites and upgraded Mysql to 4.0.18. I've been running a tail on a sites error_log and have noticed this every half a minute or so:

[Mon Apr 19 11:38:29 2004] [error] [client 62.166.73.84] PHP Warning: Unknown(): Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php4/mhash.so' - libmhash.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
[Mon Apr 19 11:39:08 2004] [error] [client 62.166.73.84] PHP Warning: Unknown(): Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php4/mhash.so' - libmhash.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0

The file mhash.so is in the site's /usr/lib/php4/ directory as well as it's /usr/lib/ directory. It's also in the servers /usr/lib/php4/ directory. Any ideas?

Did you install the DAG packages for libmcrypt / libmhash?

[root@sky named]# rpm -qa | grep dag
libmhash-0.9.1-1.rhel3.dag
libmcrypt-devel-2.5.7-1.dag.rhel3
libmhash-devel-0.9.1-1.rhel3.dag
libmcrypt-2.5.7-1.dag.rhel3


yep.

Try uninstalling / reinstalling the php-mhash rpm

I have, twice. Still no luck.

We figured it out. My copartner tried this and it worked on these 2 sites so he stuck the files in /home/virtual/FILESYSTEMTEMPLATE/apache/usr/lib/ , put ensim into mantinence mode, restarted it, and it works now.

[root@sky ~]# cp /usr/lib/libmhash.so.2* /home/virtual/the-site.com/usr/lib/
[root@sky ~]# cp /usr/lib/libmhash.so.2* /home/virtual/the-site2.org/usr/lib/

Will this upgrade mess up future Ensim upgrades?

hello,

I'm getting :

when I try to rpm -Fvh *.rpm .

do u know y?
thanks:)

That is ok

thnks,
well unfortunately it is not installing the rpms:

# rpm -Fvh *.rpm
#warning: libmcrypt-2.5.7-1.dag.rhel3.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 6b8d79e6
#
and then nothing more....

# rpm -qa | grep libmhash
#

# rpm -qa | grep libmcrypt
#


:confused:

You need to rpm -Uvh rpm's which are not already installed on your server, i.e. libmcrypt packages.

[edit] just deleted my blah blah, coz it works like a charm:) [/edit]

Gpan! Can you take a sec and answer my question? Please?

I've used your RPMs before .. and they work great .. but on some previous Ensim upgrades .. I know that there were problems, and your RPMs had to be removed before they would work.

Any idea if these will have the same problems?

Thanks in advance.

It shouldn't have that impact any more unless Ensim breaks its policy to de-ensim-ize packages.

These are built against Red Hat specs.

well, guess I need to install the rpms ... and to uninstall the former ones with all dependencies...a simple freshen or upgrade isn't possible....right?

I would recommend against installing PHP 4.3.6 with Ensim 3.7.

PHP 4.3.6 has a bug that will break a default Ensim install when using apache2 as the default web server.

Bug #27810 Apache-2.0.49 crashes on graceful/restart
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=27810

Ensim uses apache graceful restarts in conjuntion with exclog for log rotation. Which will in turn cause apache2 to segfault and exit.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

(apparently)

A patched version will be posted shortly.

mayb someone else?
the question seems 2b too simple for gpan...our master

-Fvh or -Uvh should work.

Sweet! Thanks again Gpan. You rule.

those rpms are great gpan:) , pleas could you say me how you did it to work with '--with-imap'?
I've compiled 4.3.6 from the source and got it to work with everything but '--with-imap'. I've googled a long time, but instead of answers or hints I've seen just the same question as mine.
if I try to compile with '--with-imap' I'm getting :configure: error: Cannot find rfc822.h. Please check your IMAP installation

your advice would be greatly appreciated:)

Make sure you have imap-devel package installed.

I installed all the rpms .. but when I try and run "phpize" .. its not found. I searched and can not find it either. I thought it was in the php-devel package.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm trying to install MMCache.

I can attest to the seg faults. Here's where they occur:

On every change to a domain via control panel
on cron at 4:10 (or so)
on cron at 4:40 (or so)

Not very nice.

Let us know when you get the patched up gpan. No rush, you do your thing. We all love ya for dropping the diamonds at our feet.

they also happen when you use the 'log' options in any of the control panels

phpize is included in /usr/bin, however I'm missing phpize.m4:(


:confused:

Can anyone give me any more info about the segfaults?

Nope ... not there for me. The only thing there is "php". Its not on my server. What did I do wrong?

Gpan? Any suggestions?

I downloaded all the 4.3.6 RPMs from this link:

http://download.cheetaweb.com/redhat/EL3/php.mysql4/

.. and ran

rpm -Fvh *.rpm

it seemed to work .. no errors .. and my version is reporting as 4.3.6.

To install MMCache .. I need to run phpize..

sure, what do you need to know?

the flaw is in apache2's pcre (perl compatible reg exp) memory allocation

coloured diff
http://cvs.php.net/diff.php/php-src/ext/pc....17&ty=h&num=10

There are changes in memory allocation code.

an alternative patch to 4.3.6 by jorton

http://www.apache.org/~jorton/php-4.3.6-pc...pcrealloc.patch


although i would just take the php_prce.c from cvs and use that.

download from:
http://cvs.php.net/cvs.php/php-src/ext/pcre/php_pcre.c

direct link to file:
http://cvs.php.net/co.php/php-src/ext/pcre...=1.132.2.17&p=1

Will try to apply these and see if it works better.

it seems you can't install mmcache over these rpms...(at least I wasn't able to)
I've compiled php-4.3.6 from the source and mmchache works like a charm:)

I was just told that MMCache is not recommended, as it is very 'buggy'. Should I just go with PHP Accelerator instead?

well phpa is bugyy too

phpa is not all that it is cracked up to be. mmcache is probably the best free optimizer from what i've been reading.

any way besides compiling 4.3.6 to get mmcahce to work?

Hi GPan,

Have you had a chance to patch those RPMs yet? Please let us know. Thanks!

RS.

Cheetah Web told me this:



.. if that helps you at all. I'm not sure if this was just intended for me or what.

I'm happy now though .. I just went with PHPA .. and I'm not getting any seg faults this time. Seems to be working real well.

It will be publically posted eventually at no cost (on my free time), but as he wanted it done right away it would have been a billed charge.

I hope there was no misunderstanding there.

Well im having issues with installing these RPMS on a RH 7.3 Ensim 3.5.x. seems to be related to a kernel upgrade i did to 2.4.20-20.7. as before i have had installed the 4.3.5 installed. So far anything above 4.3.3 seems to cause these problems.... Anyhow what its doing is when httpd is restarted it looks like everything is good. although if you look in /var/www/html/error_log there is only a few lines in there acts like it doesnt load any of the site configs, although during httpd restart you can see it loading all the configs... but anyhow httpd shows it started fine. but nothing is accessable, no httpd listed during ps auxfn.

This is all that shows up... doesnt show any of the "processing config file .... /etc/httpd/virtual/site##/...." stuff once i remove these rpms and reinstall ensim stock rpms it works fine.

Hi,

I used these (not all of them, just the ones I needed) and everything went smoothly... in SSH, I get:


But my phpinfo page continues to show: "PHP Version 4.3.2".

Am I missing something?

Hmm... I just updated /etc/php.ini, and I see that phpinfo.php also does not show the updated values (for example, I changed y2k_compliance from "On" to "Off", but it still shows "On"; I changed log_errors to "On", but it still shows "Off", etc.

I'm probably forgetting something really obvious, but I don't know what.

I knew I was forgetting something obvious - I hadn't restarted Apache!

(If anyone finds themselves in the same position as me, don't forget to do "/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart" at the command line when you're done upgrading and after you change php.ini.)

Hi gpan,

Do you know if i can use one of these package (RHEL or Fedora 1) on a RedHat 9 ?

Thanks,
Julien.

When I try to upgrade my php, I have everything working well, except I get this one error:

error: Failed dependencies:
php = 4.3.2-11.ent is needed by (installed) php-ldap-4.3.2-11.ent

[edit]DOH! Forgot to download the ldap rpm. All is good now.[/edit]
