yep, that is indeed what I should do. However I do not find the time nor opportunity at this moment (or the coming) to do this, since the owner is not keen on 'changing something that works' (he likes the server as is).
but definetely, my next server will only use openbsd packages.
also, while still searching for a solution, I encountered this:
Code:
# cd /usr/local/lib/php/
# man ldd
...
# ldd libphp5.so
libphp5.so:
Cannot load specified object
maybe just the lib is invalid, or the rights are?
if it is not, I'm gonna leave it as is. Maybe when I get a chance I will repair my frankenstein, and get it back to life
edit: going to bed now
thx again for all the help!
