Bug#269377: apache: Upgrade broke Apache and PHP

2004-09-01 Thread Brian C
Package: apache
Version: 1.3.31-4
Severity: important


I just upgraded Apache (among other things.) Now my site, which runs
b2evolution (serving up a .php index file), does not display and
constantly generates new windows with nothing in them. (It's like an
infinite loop.) 

Or, if Mozilla/your browser is not configured to handle x-html-php
files then trying to visit the site just asks you what to do with the
file. Something is obviously broken, but I can't figure out what to
change to fix it.

I selected to keep my old httpd.conf when upgrading. Strangely, all my
other virtually-hosted sites work fine. None of them uses PHP, so I
looked around and saw that apache-mod-php4 was not installed. It seems
to me that it used to be. So, I installed it and still no fix.

Any ideas greatly appreciated (to address listed below) as my site (also
below) is down until I figure this out!

Upgrade to 1.3.31 changes document root

2004-08-01 Thread Brian C
Hi,

I run Debian testing. I had Apache 1.3.29 installed and working fine,
using name-based virtual hosting to host several websites.

I upgraded to 1.3.31 this morning and it changed the default document
root back to /var/www because now ALL of my virtual hosts point to the
index.html file in /var/www. THIS IS BAD!

The strange thing is that /etc/apache/httpd.conf was not altered at all
during the upgrade process. The timestamp is still correct and all my
virtual hosts are still listed. What file did the upgrade change?

I also have apache-ssl and apache-perl installed, but haven't ever 
tried to use them.

Please help me get these websites back online! Thanks.
