TL;DR: Check the list of what is being updated before you let an OS automatically update its programs.<\/p>\n
We have a home automation \/\u00a0MythTV \/ ZoneMinder server\u00a0with automatic updates disabled.\u00a0In the process of updating OpenHAB to OpenHAB2, Scott suggested we update everything else while we’re at it. No big, did a quick “dnf update” … got a gig of packages downloaded, waiting for\u00a0>1400 packages to install, and\u00a0rebooted.<\/p>\n
PHP could not talk to MySQL. At all. ZoneMinder just threw an error saying we didn’t have the PHP MySQL module installed (it worked half an hour ago, so it is INSTALLED). MythWeb\u00a0completely failed to load – just a white screen. The quick web view of OpenHAB persistence history threw a class not found error.<\/p>\n
I checked to see if the extensions were loaded (use the command “print_r(get_loaded_extensions());” in a PHP page) – huh, a LOT of my modules were missing.\u00a0But there weren’t any\u00a0useful<\/em> errors anywhere indicating why<\/em>.<\/p>\n I modified the php.ini file to show startup errors.<\/p>\n [root@fedora01 conf.modules.d]# grep display_startup_errors \/etc\/php.ini Oooooh, now there are errors! A\u00a0lot<\/em> of them. Not particularly useful, but at least a good clue that this isn’t going to go so well for me:<\/p>\n PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library ‘\/usr\/lib64\/php\/modules\/pdo.so’ – \/usr\/lib64\/php\/modules\/pdo.so: undefined symbol: zend_ce_exception in Unknown on line 0 Turns out DNF installed PHP 7, but didn’t do anything to remove the PHP 5 modules from my Apache configuration:<\/p>\n [root@fedora01 tmp]# cd \/etc\/httpd\/modules [root@fedora01 modules]# mkdir \/tmp\/oldphp And remove them from the conf.modules.d too (if you just remove the module\u00a0files<\/em> but try to load them in the conf.modules.d … Apache will just fail to load. You\u00a0could<\/em> remove them from conf.modules.d … but I don’t want a lot of no-longer-used files sitting there to confuse me in a year or two!)<\/p>\n [root@fedora01 modules]# cd \/etc\/httpd\/conf.modules.d\/ [root@fedora01 conf.modules.d]# mv 10-php.conf \/tmp\/oldphp\/<\/p>\n Then restart Apache without PHP 5:<\/p>\n root@fedora01 conf.modules.d]# service httpd start Voila, perfectly functioning web sites. And, yeah,\u00a0I should probably check the list of “what will be updated” when I update a server. Would save HOURS\u00a0of reading through strace output to find out old versions were still hanging about.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" TL;DR: Check the list of what is being updated before you let an OS automatically update its programs.
