PHP Compile error

Howdy folks!

I have been running PHP 5.1.1 on a SuSE 10.0 test server for a few weeks, and I haven't noticed anything funny until today.
Now, when I do php --version it pops up with:

Quote:

PHP Warning: PHP Startup: UåVSè«øÿÿÃFN: Unable to initialize module

And many, many more blocks like this, before giving the version output.

When I tried to recompile/upgrade to 5.1.2 it didn't help, and when I started looking closer at the compiling process I noticed this:

... and the same on other modules, I believe xml as well..

I get the same with PHP 4.4.2, 5.1.1 and 5.1.2.

configured with

Quote:

./configure --with-xml-dir=/usr/include/libxml2 --with-bz2=/usr/lib --with-curl=/usr --with-bd --with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-zlib=/usr

Does anyone have any ideas is this a problem with my libs or with gcc?

Like I said before, it seemed to be working fine for a long time. I only noticed it yesterday when the simplexml_load_string() didn't work as expected.
CURL seems to be working.

Any ideas or pointers?

Have you done any system updates or upgrades at all recently?

Peace...

Remove or comment the references to the 2 modules from your php.ini

i have a question for you - is DB.php installed on your system? i think it should be in /usr/share/php? it should only be present if you're using PEAR.

if you do perchance have it, could you tell me what php packages you have installed? (rpm -qa|grep -i php should do it)

thanks

Hmm... I don't.. Though I do have
/usr/local/lib/php/PEAR/DependencyDB.php
if that's any good to you.

And I didn't install php as rpm eigther. Self compiled. You can see the ./configure command I used above.

If I don't get anywhere with this over the weekend, I will just reinstall. (You always have the option to reinstall)

Would be good though to figure out what it is and why it happened, so that I don't have to spend the same amount of time on it if it happens again.

Cheers!

i don't think db.php gets installed from pkgs on the suse cds.

i need to install using the installer, but it needs internet access (aparantly) even tho i've d/l'd the pear packages. the "approved" method is to use the installer. i havent figured out how to install d/l'd pkgs. maybe it's possible. the machine i am pear-ing is not connected, only my laptop. i would like to just d/l pkgs and install.

the REALLY goofy thing is that pear -V reports info that conflicts with the errors you get when using pear install DB-1.something - it sez it wants pear >= 1.01b or some such - i forget the exact rev - but it sez it wants something newer than the installer thinks it is, but less than what pear -v sez.

thanks suse for not providing the basic DB stuff so we can use mysql.

if i figure out how to beat the "no access" issue plus the conflicting version thing, i'll post it.
