Re: [SM-PLUGINS] [Vadmin] unable to login to vadmin

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Hi Stephen,

There's a php binary in /usr/local/bin

I reran the command as

strings /usr/local/bin/php  | grep gdbm

and the result was nothing.

I also ran it on the working 4.10 server and got the same result.

Thanks in advance,

Bill Ing
