Re: [PHP] Power failure = php failure: HELP!
I had a similar problem myself 1 1/2 weeks ago when my system locked up through an IDE bus lock up after 560 days uptime (system still ran, but no access to anything on the IDE drives, scsi was ok). There was significant file system damage, which for me took out my web pages, MySQL, a number of executables, and a few other files. Your whole problem sounds like file system damage to me. I'm assuming you've run something like fsck to examine your file systems, been through the lost+found directories on the various partitions and put together again as much as you can. Just because a program still kind of runs doesn't mean it or its files escaped the crash undamaged. I think your only two reasonable options here are to reach for you backups (you did make them, didn't you???), or to rebuild the failing components. If you need further help, you can contact me directly as this thread doesn't really belong on the PHP list. regards Markus On Wednesday 15 September 2004 08:14, Justin Rietz wrote: > I am running Apache.

I have spent 2 days trying to find the solution. If anyone has any ideas, it would be much appreciated! What could have happened is that the power outage caused a few bad sectors or lost chains. Or it may have resulted in buffered data not been written to disk. To cut a long story short your php installation would have been corrupted. A reinstall would probably fix the problem.

[PHP] Power failure = php failure: HELP!
I am running Apache. Xoops, and Squirrelmail on a Fedora 2 server. I recently had a power failure - my daughter turned off my power strip :-( The network card was fried. Anyway, PHP does not seem to be working now. Apache serves static html pages fine, squirrelmail loads in the browser but can't read mailboxes, and the Xoops home page pulls up VERY slowly but doesn't post any graphics. I have spent 2 days trying to find the solution. If anyone has any ideas, it would be much appreciated! Thanks, -JR __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
