FC4 - httpd fails to start
 
Hello friends,
I am trying to start httpd on my FC4. But alas, following are the observations:

Code:
[root@localhost ~]# service httpd start
Starting httpd:                                            [FAILED]
[root@localhost ~]# service httpd configtest
Syntax error on line 6 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf:
Cannot load /etc/httpd/modules/libphp5.so into server: libgmp.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[root@localhost ~]#
I checkup and find that the file libphp5.so is there.

What to do next.

It seems that there are many things which used to work perfectly in FC1 have stopped to work in FC4.

Any help for an FC4-condemned creature.


Thanks in advance

My web server runs Fedora Core 4, and I have not seen this problem. Do the results of the commands I have pasted below look the same as mine?

Code:
[root@server /]# locate libphp5.so
/usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp5.so
[root@server /]# rpm -qf /usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp5.so
php-5.0.4-10.5

There is slight difference. the output is as below:


Code:
[root@localhost ~]# locate libphp5.so
/usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp5.so
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -qf /usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp5.so
php-5.0.4-10
[root@localhost ~]#
I feel my system lacks one of the packages. You can check out as to which package does the file libgmp.so.3 belong. Let me know the name of the package.


Thanks for taking time to help me.

Okay, here is what I have from the libgmp.so.3 front:

Code:
[root@server /]# locate libgmp.so.3
/usr/lib/sse2/libgmp.so.3
/usr/lib/sse2/libgmp.so.3.3.3
/usr/lib/libgmp.so.3
/usr/lib/libgmp.so.3.3.3
/usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/5.1/SystemFiles/Libraries/Linux/libgmp.so.3
[root@server /]# rpm -qf /usr/lib/sse2/libgmp.so.3
gmp-4.1.4-6
[root@server /]# rpm -qf /usr/lib/libgmp.so.3
gmp-4.1.4-6
Does that help?

Yes Sir,
It has defintely helped.
I have installed the package gmp-4.1.4-6.
Now the I am able to start https.

Thanks a lot.

But
I have next problem. I wanted to start squirrelmail now that the webserver has started. I find that I don't have imap service running on the my box. In fact I find that imap is not at all available. In FC1 I was using I was having this service. Probabely some of the packages are missing.
Can somebody help me. If I know package name I would be out of the trouble.

Maybe it should have been a seperate thread. If so, do forgive me.

I am glad I could help. I unfortunately know very little about mail servers in Linux though. Your best best would probably be to start a new thread to catch the attention of people who know about that very topic.
