I think this is a PHP5 issue. If you can, then try with phpMyAdmin with PHP4 and you will probably not see this error any more.

you need the sessions use flag
(add +sessions for dev-lang/php in package.use)
if you have an error with function preg_replace() on line 37, then you need the use flag pcre
seems like the ebuild comes without some important modules per default, i had to recompile 3 times now, and i'm still missing stuff...
and it's hard to figure out |

To be honest, php5 isnt an issue for me. The only thing i'm going to be hosting is a bulletin board for a friend.
Next challenge is to get ProFTPd to use mysql as it's user source.

Be sure that you compile it with the mysql use flag as well. If need be
echo "net-ftp/proftpd mysql >> /etc/portage/package.use" |

I'm having that exact error right now.. I'm still a newbie to gentoo and i don't really know how to add USE flags other then adding it into the make.defaults profile. Can you tell me how to get PHP to work with pcre and preg function?
Have php 5, apache2 and mysql4
EDIT: im an idoit, after looking over the gentoo doc i guess i shouldn't have been chaning that file |

type this as root
| Code: | | nano -w /etc/portage/package.use |
if there is a line that starts with "dev-lang/php", make sure it contains the flags you need (eg sessions or pcre or whatever)
if there is no such line, create it
for example, mine looks like this
| Quote: |
#dev-db/mysql innodb berkdb
dev-lang/php spl iconv tokenizer posix xml dba session calendar pcre crypt jpeg png gd -berkdb mysql ftp soa$
net-www/apache mpm-worker
net-irc/irssi perl ssl socks5 nls
|
(dont mind the $, its nano's way of telling there is more text on the right) |

i dont seem to have a package.use file.
/etc/portage/
inside portage is a .keep and thats it.
Is package.use same as or similar to make.conf? |

Just create the file by typing nano -w /etc/portage/package.use and editing / saving it (as root user). By default there isn't one. |

Well, I'm having to remove PHP5 and anything to do with it from all my servers as it is the boondoggle for every web based program I have. What's strange is that this only happened after upgrading to php-5.1.1
I'm going back to dev-php/php instead since that seemed to work for me.

Do you defined PHP5 | Code: | tfoerste@n22 ~ $ grep PHP5 /etc/conf.d/apache2
APACHE2_OPTS="-D DEFAULT_VHOST -D INFO -D SSL -D SSL_DEFAULT_VHOST -D DOC -D [b]PHP5[/b] -D DAV -D SVN -D SVN_AUTHZ -D DAV_FS"
