PHP: Error parsing /usr/local/lib/php.ini on line 827

[Nicarlo]

Hi guys,

I hoping someone could help me out with an issue i seem to be having.

When I do a php -v

php -v
PHP:  Error parsing /usr/local/lib/php.ini on line 827
PHP 5.2.9 (cli) (built: Mar 28 2011 20:13:57)
Copyright (c) 1997-2009 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2009 Zend Technologies
    with the ionCube PHP Loader v3.3.20, Copyright (c) 2002-2010, by ionCube Ltd.

On line 827 in php.ini I have the following

; url_rewriter.tags: (ini file field description not available)
url_rewriter.tags = a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=,fieldset=

Any ideas what may be wrong?

Aaah.. Sometimes I get too impatient and post before searching google some more.

Turns out the issue was with

url_rewriter.tags = a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=,fieldset=

It should have been

url_rewriter.tags = "a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=,fieldset="

Missing the quotes " "

Hope this helps someone else out.

Cheers

Well I have the same problems and same code. With the parsing error.

url_rewriter.tags = "a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=,fieldset="

Still getting a parse error. This strangely enough happened when i enabled ioncube php. Any thoughts

[Nicarlo]

Did you restart the web server service after doing the modifications?

[tank]

Good idea I will give it a shot.

Well just have to wait no for the cron job to tick around.

You might want to try moving the existing php.ini and recreating it, then reinstalling IonCube using this set of commands:

mv /usr/local/lib/php.ini /usr/local/lib/php.ini.bak110429
/scripts/phpini
/scripts/phpextensionmgr uninstall IonCubeLoader
/scripts/phpextensionmgr install IonCubeLoader

Please note that if you've modified the php.ini previously using WHM > PHP Configuration Editor that it is causing duplicate lines due to an existing case (46972). Until your tier reaches 11.30, please only make edits to the php.ini in root SSH rather than via WHM.

You can view the changelog to see when a case hits a set version at http://go.cpanel.net/changelog

You can view your existing cPanel version using this command:

cat /usr/local/cpanel/version

You can see the most recent version for each tier at http://httpupdate.cpanel.net/

Update
ok i looked into it further and this only has occurred after WHMCS billing/ioncube has been installed.

Here is the cron job that they issued.

if(!extension_loaded('ionCube Loader')){$__oc=strtolower(substr(php_uname(),0,3));$__ln='ioncube_loader_'.$__oc.'_'.substr(phpversion(),0,3).(($__oc=='win')?'.dll':'.so');@dl($__ln);if(function_exists('_il_exec')){return _il_exec();}$__ln='/ioncube/'.$__ln;$__oid=$__id=realpath(ini_get('extension_dir'));$__here=dirname(__FILE__);if(strlen($__id)>1&&$__id[1]==':'){$__id=str_replace('\\','/',substr($__id,2));$__here=str_replace('\\','/',substr($__here,2));}$__rd=str_repeat('/..',substr_count($__id,'/')).$__here.'/';$__i=strlen($__rd);while($__i--){if($__rd[$__i]=='/'){$__lp=substr($__rd,0,$__i).$__ln;if(file_exists($__oid.$__lp)){$__ln=$__lp;break;}}}@dl($__ln);}else{die('The file '.__FILE__." is corrupted.\n");}if(function_exists('_il_exec')){return _il_exec();}echo('Site error: the file <b>'.__FILE__.'</b> requires the ionCube PHP Loader '.basename($__ln).' to be installed by the site administrator.');exit(199);

current version of cpanel is 11.28.87-Release_51188

I am very new to linux commands. How would I recreate php.ini.

Also i installed ioncube via SSH simply because i wanted the most up to date version of it. Could that be the issue.

Please advise
Thanks from the newbie

[cPanelTristan]

For recreating the php.ini, I provided the commands previously for root SSH. You'd simply copy and paste the commands:

mv /usr/local/lib/php.ini /usr/local/lib/php.ini.bak110429
/scripts/phpini

Ok i have done this will report back in the morning when the cron job runs. Thanks Tristan.
