PHP Patch

From SoL 25 Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Due to bad star alignment and sun flares, the mail() function is missing in the default PHP (5.2.1) installation of SoL 25. To fix this, either rebuild it or download the following patch:

ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/sol/SoL-25.00/patches/php-patch.tar.bz2

This patch will be available on the other SoL mirrors soon, see Installing SoL 25 for a list of mirrors.

To apply the patch, run: 

wget ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/sol/SoL-25.00/patches/php-patch.tar.bz2
tar xjvf php-patch.tar.bz2
cd php-patch
./install.sh

A nice sideeffect of this patch is that the PHP version will be transparently upgraded to version 5.2.3.

Note: don't forget to restart the webserver (/etc/rc.d/bin/sol-httpd.sh restart) after applying the patch!
