Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] 1.4RC2 - apache won't run, samba has problems

[Dominic R. <dl...@ed...>]

Working with 1.4RC2:

The samba problem was that wef Samba 3.4.0 the default setting for 
passdb backend has changed from smbpasswd to tdbsam. So I needed to add 
a line in [global]:
passdb backend = smbpasswd
With this my Samba is now fine.

The pam_unit(webmin:auth) authentication failure message in 
/var/log/messages is still appearing. However webmin seems to be okay.

Doing /usr/sbin/postfix upgrade-configuration did something but the 
error message still appears on reboot, presumably because 
/var/spool/postfix/pid is owned by postfix and not by root. But postfix 
still seems to work.

After some messing around I have traced the apache problem to the php5 
module: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so. With this loaded 
(LoadModule in httpd.conf, and as provided in the default DL 
configuration), apache segfaults. Without it, no problem, but you don't 
have php. Which is very bad news for me. Maybe this module needs to be 
recompiled?
