Error starting Apache

buddhahat · 06-13-2005, 08:07 PM

I'm setting up an AMP server on Slack 10 kernel 2.4.26 following these great instructions:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...icle&artid=456

All has gone smoothly until I try to start Apache, I get this error:

Code:

Syntax error on line 5 of /etc/apache2/mod_php.conf:
Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/libphp5.so into server: libexslt.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I've checked my system and can't find libexslt.so.0 anywhere.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Try installing this:

http://www.slackware.com/pb/download...-1.1.12-i486-1 (10.1)

Or this:

http://www.slackware.com/pb/download...-1.1.14-i486-1 (-current)

root@slack21:/home/egag/# ls -l /usr/lib/libexslt.so.0*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2005-02-11 15:02 /usr/lib/libexslt.so.0 -> libexslt.so.0.8.10
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 61460 2005-01-02 06:40 /usr/lib/libexslt.so.0.8.10

it's looking for a symlink
do a " ls -l /usr/lib/libexslt.so.0* " on the commandline.
maybe you only gotto make that link.

That was it, thanks Shilo! Appreciate your help.

(Also love your "This is how I do it all..." sticky, I've referred to it many times!)
