I can confirm this issue in Karmic and php5 5.2.10.dfsg.1-1ubuntu1. Just not sure if the issue is reload vs. restart.
Doing an extra /etc/init.d/apache2 reload did the trick just as well as a /etc/init.d/apache2 restart. ** Changed in: php5 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: php5 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- Installing PHP5 performs a reload to apache instead of a restart https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/403599 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
