[Phpwiki-talk] FC3, PHPWiki problem...

[Alan H. <al...@em...>]

Hi all,

I've done a few searches for answers online, but the archives for PHPWiki 
list at sourceforge appear to be down (along with the entire search 
capability at sf.net)....

Anyway, I was happily running PHPWiki 1.3.x on RedHat 9.0 for a long time 
and finally got fed up with the lack of updates.  So, I upgraded to Fedora 
Core 3.  I discovered that the default installation of PHP didn't include 
GDBM support, so I installed the php-4.3.11-2.4.src.rpm, edited the spec 
file to add the --with-gdbm and --enable-dba options, recompiled, and 
reinstalled PHP.  restarted Apache, and I'm now getting the following 
error message:

   lib/DbaDatabase.php:54: Error[256]: dba_open(/home/alanh/html/wiki/pages/pagedb.gdbm,c): Driver initialization failed for handler: gdbm: File open error
      file: /home/alanh/html/wiki/pages/pagedb.gdbm
      mode: c
      handler: gdbm

I don't think this is a permissions problem:

$ ls -l /home/alanh/html/wiki/pages/pagedb.gdbm
-rwxrwxrwx  1 apache apache 1024021 Apr 13 08:46 /home/alanh/html/wiki/pages/pagedb.gdbm*

Any suggestions as to what to try?

Again, I apologize if this has been answered in the past.
