Easyapache runs but doesn't update ?

[nyjimbo]

I finally decided to give the Easyapache update to get the frontpage fix and to go from Apache 1.3.34 to 1.3.36 (this is on a Freebsd system).

Ran easyapache, changed NOTHING, just checked to be sure everything was ok. Stayed with PHP4.4.2, etc.

Everything seemed to run perfectly, took about 15-20 minutes and then it brought apache back up.

When I went to check I see this :

"Apache/1.3.34 (Unix) mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_bwprotect/0.2 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 PHP/4.4.2 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 mod_ssl/2.8.25 OpenSSL/0.9.6g "

which means it did NOT update anything. I didnt see any errors and I DID see it untarring Apache 1.3.36 so something went wrong, but I don't know what.

Is there a Apache compile log somewhere on the system?. I tried to do it again and the same exact thing happened.

I had this same problem today on many of our servers. Regardless of the options checked with /scripts/easyapache PHP 4.4.2 would be compiled, all module selections would be ignored, etc...

But no errors.

To fix, I ran:

/scripts/upcp --force

from shell.

Once cPanel was done updating, I ran easyapache again.

Problem Solved.

Nope, doesn't solve my problem. I just wish I knew if there were any logs from the apache compile I could look at.

I am having a simlar issue I tried the above suggestions and I had no luck.

I have submittted a support ticket to cPanel I am out of ideas. Any one help....

Specifically I am trying to add pdf support to my Apache/PHP settings. The strange part is that I have compiled with easyApache three times and seem to get no errors however my compile date when doing a phpinfo script never changes.

If it helps any I am running:
WHM 10.8.0 cPanel 10.8.2-C118
CentOS 4.3 x86_64 - WHM X v3.1.0

This is the header section of the phpinfo.
PHP Version 4.4.2
Build Date Jun 2 2006 18:03:13
Configure Command './configure' '--enable-pic' '--with-libdir=lib64' '--prefix=/usr' '--with-xml' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-calendar' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--with-mysqli' '--with-mysql=/usr' '--enable-discard-path' '--with-pear' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-track-vars' '--with-zlib'

Easyapache runs but doesn't update ?

[dwolf77]

Still no luck I tried with the upcp --force and a good many items did get updated, then I did easyApache option 7 verifying that PDF was a selected option and still had the same results.

Any other ideas?

Did I mention this is a new install that was created on last Friday?

[dwolf77]

So I got a response from cPanel's support system today does any one know how to do what he is telling me?

Also do you know if my customers code will work when all is said and done?


================================================== =============
This is cpanels response:
The pdf module is no longer bundled with PHP. You'll need to install it via
pecl or pear.
================================================== =============

I am a newb to running a cPanel server, but have been a reseller for a few years, and I do not want to break cPanel by doing something wrong.

Thanks...

run: pecl install pdflib
from the shell (if your tmp dir is not noexec)
if your tmp dir is noexec you will have to manually download the tar.gz from pecl.pear.net and use phpize to configure it

[dwolf77]

Thanks for the help, I had to do that and I had to install the pdf-lite library and things straightened up.

Thanks Again.
