The bug is in the Planet 2.0 codebase that I'm using. I'm on the list and am happy to file this upstream. Thanks for CCing me on the message. I had noticed the issue in question before but didn't realize it was outside of the specification or was causing anyone problem so had ignored it. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Anyone using php4.04-6 or php4.04pl1-1 answer please
Hi, I would like any one using php4.04-6 or php4.04pl1-1 and having php scripts running on their web server to check their apache error.log. Tell me if you get some errors like this: [Thu Jan 18 23:42:28 2001] [notice] child pid 29702 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Thu Jan 18 23:42:29 2001] [notice] child pid 29707 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Thu Jan 18 23:42:29 2001] [notice] child pid 29706 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) Warning: Nesting level too deep - recursive dependency? in Unknown on line 0 b> Warning: Nesting level too deep - recursive dependency? in Unknown on line 0 b> Warning: Nesting level too deep - recursive dependency? in Unknown on line 0 b> so we can know if its a problem with the package or just me. Thanks, Benj
Upgraded to php4.04, then got problems, bug ?
Hi, I upgraded my debian to php4.04. I was previously using 4.03pl1 php. I use php as an apache module. After doing so, my scripts seemed to work well and as they should. However, after looking into the apache error log here is what I saw: [Thu Jan 18 23:42:27 2001] [notice] child pid 29699 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Thu Jan 18 23:42:28 2001] [notice] child pid 29705 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Thu Jan 18 23:42:28 2001] [notice] child pid 29704 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Thu Jan 18 23:42:28 2001] [notice] child pid 29702 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Thu Jan 18 23:42:29 2001] [notice] child pid 29707 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Thu Jan 18 23:42:29 2001] [notice] child pid 29706 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) Warning: Nesting level too deep - recursive dependency? in Unknown on line 0 Warning: Nesting level too deep - recursive dependency? in Unknown on line 0 Warning: Nesting level too deep - recursive dependency? in Unknown on line 0 Warning: Nesting level too deep - recursive dependency? in /var/www/forums/showthread.php on line 0 Does anyone here have upgraded to php 4.04final6 ? Did you get these errors ? And why this php upgrade was found in a /pool/main directory ? There was no way I could find this php4_4.0.4final-6_i386.deb in a distrib stable/unstable directory ?! Could my problem be a package php bug ? Thanks, Benj

Thanks Mark, but I think I have no choice but to reinstall everything :(( I already submitted the probleme here. In case you want to know: I made an apt-get upgrade. It did upgrade my kernel, but I didn't knew my kernel was a specific kernel for my system patched for raid. I couldn't reboot my system and had to go to my NOC and restore old kernel. During this procedure, i've LOST the dpkg status file, so ALL the dpkg system refering to this status file couldn't run. I restored an old status file, which is not sync with my system since it was the old one before the upgrade. Any way, its not really a problem since I would be able to RE upgrade some package so the status file would be up to date. Unfortually, each time I run a dpkg command, here is what I get (in this case I tried to upgrade php4): Reading database ... dpkg: error processing php4_4.0.3pl1-4.deb (--install): files list file for package `kernel-image-2.2.17' is missing final newline Errors were encountered while processing: php4_4.0.3pl1-4.deb Processing was halted because there were too many errors. -- I don't know why the hell its refering to the kernel. Its on hold and not supposed to be touched during the php upgrade... Benj

Ok, please tell me how to install a package without the dpkg system
Hi, don't ask me why, but I can't use anymore anything related to the dpkg / apt-get system. I will have to install everything I want manually from the source :/ So please tell me how, since I really have no clue how to do it. Here is an example of What I want to do. I have php4 package installed (It was installed with the apt-get... when it used to work). Now I want to upgrade this php4 package to the latest package (php4 4.03 pl5). I downloaded tar.gz source. Now, what am I supposed to do. Step by step instruction welcome. Thanks a lot. Benj

But in case of a php upgrade... how should I handle it ? Being an upgrade, I guess its a bit different ? Thanks, Benj
cron ? Where ?
How strange. I've setup a cron job using webmin I simply can't find manually the file where its set. I've checked all the cron directories of Debian, can't find where my con job is set. Do you know where should I look ? Thanks, Benj
Installing applications manually ?
Hi, is it possible to install anything manually WITHOUT using the dpkg, apt-get system ? For example, if I want to upgrade php3.0 (already installed with apt-get) to php4, can I do this upgrade manually, without the package system ? Thanks, Benj
Ok, how can I prevent the system from upgrading kernel-image-2.2.17 ?
Well, thanks to the answers received from this list about my problem with the /dpkg/status file being deleted... I was able to restore an old status archived files. So now I have all the packages listed, but some are outdated and some are not visible (since its an old status file). Now, I would like to make an apt-get upgrade.. BUT, at all cost, I would like the system NOT to upgrade: kernel-image-2.2.17 This is what have caused the problem. I use a patched kernel, and my system can't work without it. The problem when I try to do any apt-get, it tries to update it It seems there is somewhere a file telling the system that the previous kernel-image-2.2.17 updade was not completed and the system always try to updrade this which it can't. My question is: how can I locate who is asking to upgrade kernel-image-2.2.17 each time I try to run any apt-get ? How can I tell it not to do it anymore and completely ignore to take care of this file ? Thanks Benj
Big problem: I've lost the dpkg status file !!!
Hi, today was a nightmare. I ran an apt-get upgrade. It screwed our system, had to go to the NOC and restore previous kernel. System is now back to working perfectly. Except that ALL the dpkg system is screwed !!! I don't know why, the /var/lib/dpkg/status file disapeared after the dramatic apt-get upgrade. So ALL the functions involving this file (apt-get, dpkg, dpkg --list.) are not working anymore because they can't read the file !! I have backups, but they are outdated, since lots of stuff were updated during the apt-get upgrade and they don't seem to work. Is there a way to rebuild the status file ? I mean I have lots of package installed, isn't there a way for the system to rebuild this file after seing what I have on the system ? I would like also to have all the dependencies up to date and working. Is it possible or am I completely dead and have no way to use again the debian package system ? This is very important. Thanks, Donov
