Hi Terry, Had a segfaulting apache-2.2.3 w/ php 5.2.0 before after upgrading 5.1.6_3 to 5.2.0. mail/roundcube would segfault on login. My problem was that I had NO_INET6 in my kernel, but no WITHOUT_IPV6 for my ports. Solved segfaulting apache and connection-probs in bitlbee. Furthermore, I am told that the order in which the php-extensions load is essential, see e.g. http://www.pingle.org/2006/10/18/php-crashes-extensions/, http://nl2.php.net/manual/en/ref.recode.php (empty????), http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mysql.php Currently I'm stuck again, with apache 2.2.4, php 5.2.1 and mail/roundcube webmail after upgrading php from 5.2.0 to 5.2.1 :'( Earlier, a debug build of php did not exhibit problems for me (nice if you wanna nail down the bug). Hope this all brings you any further in solving your probs Kind regards, Spil On 10/02/07, Terry Todd <tlt@badger.tltodd.com> wrote: > > > > I started from scratch and built a completely new system by installing > from CD's on a different computer and it does the exact same thing > in the exact same place.
