This script worked great! I found your original post about this dumb problem some time ago, and I had to reference it again today, and happened to see the script and tried it out. Worked like a charm!

cheers

hi!

i have had a problem on freebsd 7.0 with php 5.2.5 and 5.2.6 regarding mysqli extension. for apache module everything worked fine but for cli version it crashed with error regarding mysqli.so extension.
after a little dig on the net i have found that mysqli depends on spl.so extension wich shall be loaded before the mysqli extension :

extension=spl.so
extension=mysqli.so

after i have made it everything worked fine. if it helps for this script i’m glad if i was of any help

You saved my life! (and my sanity)
thanks.

I’ve had the same problem that mysqli, but with sqlite.
spl seems to have to come before.

I’ve added line:
MV=/bin/mv
and changed last line (MV instead CP):
$MV $EXTENSIONS_INI.tmp $EXTENSIONS_INI
The .tmp file disappeared.

Thank you so much for figuring this out!

Comment by Fred — 9/24/2008 @ 5:43 pm

Jim, I just tried your script on a couple of machines and it is FANTASTIC, fixed both.

This should definitely be integrated to ports for all php extensions.

Thanks for your work, I was never able to figure out why the order was so important.

Nice script, i have sqlite on my server and sqlite.so must be placed after spl.so.

Thanks.

extension=session.so
extension=xml.so
extension=dom.so

Thanks for your helpful post! Although the script didn’t eliminate the error messages, it gave me some ideas. I solved it by removing some modules.

Comment by KP — 1/20/2009 @ 4:46 pm

my original extensions.ini:
extension=pgsql.so
extension=pdf.so
extension=ctype.so
extension=simplexml.so
extension=spl.so
extension=dom.so
extension=filter.so
extension=hash.so
extension=iconv.so
extension=json.so
extension=pdo.so
extension=pdo_sqlite.so
extension=posix.so
extension=session.so
extension=sqlite.so
extension=tokenizer.so
extension=xml.so
extension=xmlreader.so
extension=xmlwriter.so
extension=zip.so
extension=zlib.so

after running fixphpextorder.sh:
extension=pgsql.so
extension=pdf.so
extension=ctype.so
extension=simplexml.so
extension=dom.so
extension=filter.so
extension=hash.so
extension=iconv.so
extension=json.so
extension=pdo.so
extension=pdo_sqlite.so
extension=posix.so
extension=session.so
extension=tokenizer.so
extension=xmlreader.so
extension=xmlwriter.so
extension=zip.so
extension=zlib.so
extension=spl.so
extension=sqlite.so
extension=xml.so

issuing “/usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache2 graceful” gives “Performing a graceful restart”

but “/usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache2 status” says “apache2 is not running.”

httpd-error.log shows:
[notice] Graceful restart requested, doing restart
[notice] seg fault or similar nasty error detected in the parent process
[warn] pid file /var/run/httpd.pid overwritten — Unclean shutdown of previous Apache run?
[notice] Apache/2.0.63 (FreeBSD) PHP/5.2.8 with Suhosin-Patch configured — resuming normal operations

the output of the commands above is the same when i was using my original extensions.ini..

FreeBSD 7.1-STABLE

please help. TIA!

If you just recently updated PHP on FreeBSD with the ports system, be sure to read /usr/ports/UPDATING, specifically the 20081211 entry. It is possible you have some extensions that are out of date with respect to the version of PHP you are running.

I saw some errors until I followed the instructions in that entry, forcing an update of pcre (I actually had to rm /usr/local/lib/php/20060613/pcre.so before reinstalling).

There are, unfortuantely, more ways to crash PHP than by extension ordering alone… :)

I am still trying to solve this problem on one of my servers.

I have tried using the extension reordering script and httpd still core dumps. The work around that I found, although quite unsatisfactory operationally, nevertheless works and it would be useful to find out why.

I found that if I restart the running httpd using apachectl graceful httpd coredumps. However if I comment out the LoadModule php5_module and the AddModule mod_php5.c lines, httpd starts and I can then copy back the uncommented version of httpd.conf and do a graceful restart successfully.

Another graceful restart then crashes httpd.

I am running apache 1.3.41 and php5.2.9 on freebsd 7.0

Any ideas?

Thanks a zillion.
The re-ordering is my problem as well!

Comment by Mathos — 5/17/2009 @ 7:37 pm

again i have now a problem with 5.2.10 version for cli.
i have seen that mssql extension must come after dba extension, otherwise i get “Segmentation fault: 11 (core dumped)” after the script is executed.

Comment by Octavian Ionescu — 7/22/2009 @ 4:35 am

I found that sybase_ct.so needs to be loaded last or else you will also have unknown core dumps. Scripts execute fine but it cores just like everything else mentioned.

Thanks!

Jim,

Thanks for the script; it didn’t solve my problem, but it pushed me in the right direction.

I documented my steps here, for those who are interested: http://nerdstock.org/php_extensions

Cheers,
Rob
