Folks:
I've written a number of PHP apps, which run in /var/www/html/appname. I
write and test the code for those apps in
/home/paulf/public_html/appname. (Apache is configured so that
http://localhost/~paulf/appname gets me to the latter site.)
I recently upgraded to testing. The main apps work fine. However, when i
try to run that same code in /home/paulf/public_html, I get a memory
protection error, something like "mprotect() failed [13] Permission
denied" from Apache/PHP. PHP is trying to write to a SQLite database,
and the memory error makes it return an error which acts like the
database has bad permissions.
This is puzzling, in that identical code works at /var/www/html/appname
on the SQLite app/data/database.sq3 database, but not on the one at
/home/paulf/public_html/appname/app/data/database.sq3. No, it's not file
permissions, as I've set them to 777 for the database.
Brave's AI tells me that I can issue paxctl -m /usr/bin/php command to
fix this. But paxctl doesn't appear in trixie or later for some reason.
I'd appreciate it if someone has an actual solution which works.
Paul
