August 2007


I got married several months ago, but did not have time to put up all the photos to share with my families and friends all over the world.

Just installed Gallery 2 and WPG2 for Wordpress and all wedding photos are all uploaded. However, you do need a login/password to access them. If you know me personally, please ask me for that.

After re-installing php 5, I got a wired error when starting apache 2:

Cannot load /.../libphp5.so into server: /.../libphp5.so: undefined symbol: _efree

Google suggested that, lots of people have the exact error, but not a single page contains what caused this error or how to solve it. In addition, this error also happens with php 4 and apache 1.

After some hard time Trial and error, I found the issue: due to some reasons, the make install to install php 5 does not actually copy over the libphp5.la files to the right place. After manually copying the la file, apache 2 can be started happily with php 5 enabled.
