[renamed] Error after updating to Apache 2.0.55

[jnendel]

I upgraded Apache from the Fedora core 2 binary version of 2.0.49 to version 2.5.0 because of a vulnerability alert.  Since there was no rpm version 2.5.0 I compiled the source with the --enable-so option and added the LoadModule line for the libphp4.so to the httpd.conf file.  My PHP is version 4.3.10.  Now when I go to run Coppermine I get a "template error".  Any idea, because I sure don't?
Thanks. :-\\

Probably unrelated, please post the full error message.

The full error message is:
Failed to find block 'login'(#(<!-- BEGIN login -->)(.*?)(<!-- END login -->)#s) in :
When I revert back to Apache 2.49 the error goes away.

Be accurate with your version numbers please, it is confusing. I have Coppermine running fine on 2.0.54

[jnendel]

I'm trying to run it on Apache 2.0.55.

[Nibbler]

I just compiled Apache 2.0.55 and am getting template errors also. Looks like a regex problem.

Solved by recompiling PHP with the --with-pcre-regex option enabled. This is not a Coppermine specific error, but this may help others with the same issue.

[jnendel]

My PHP already had --with-pcre-regex=/usr - would the /usr be the problem?  Thanks.

[Nibbler]

Yeah, you need to switch to using the bundled pcre instead of specifying an external one.

[jnendel]

I followed your instructions and I compiled PHP with the --with-pcre-regex option (I also changed the path of the to apache include to the new Apache 2.0.55 installation).  I still have the production Coppermine running.  If I bring down current apache and start up the 2.0.55 Apache will it automatically find the newly installed PHP or is there somewhere in Coppermine I have to change a setting?  Or do I have to run the Install again.  I'm afraid if I bring it down it might not come back up and I won't know what to do.  Thank you for any help

You should be able to switch apaches with no problems, it's all on a different level to anything Coppermine has control over. This really isn't the place for server setup support.
