I wanted to update PHP so I followed this.

http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=26
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build all d

After wards I received this.
[root@server custombuild]# service httpd start
Starting httpd: httpd: Syntax error on line 18 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-phpmodules.conf: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache/mod_ruid2.so into server: /usr/lib/apache/mod_ruid2.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I edited /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-phpmodules.conf and commented the top 3 lines to get httpd to start:

#LoadModule ruid2_module /usr/lib/apache/mod_ruid2.so
#Mutex posixsem
#LoadModule mpm_prefork_module /usr/lib/apache/mod_mpm_prefork.so
LoadModule php5_module /usr/lib/apache/libphp5.so

Anyone know what caused this etc? Is it safe to just comment these items out? I have Directadmin running on CentOS 5.x 64.
 
Please try:
Code: 
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build mod_ruid2

If you get any errors while running that, please post them here.
 
That fixed this error with:
#LoadModule ruid2_module /usr/lib/apache/mod_ruid2.so

I can uncomment it now. I still must leave the other two commented in order for httpd to start. Also, Squirrelmail no longer works. When logging in I get:

ERROR
Preference file, /var/www/html/squirrelmail/data/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.pref.tmp, could not be opened. Contact your system administrator to resolve this issue.

The server was running fine before this. I simply wanted to update PHP so I could try Afterlogic Webmail. AfterLogic does work now but SquirrelMail does not and many have there address books etc saved there. Plus I really want to know what is going wrong.

Any ideas? Thanks.
 
I think it is better not to run ./build all d, but to build them one by one, then it is easyer to locate whats going wrong. If you only wanted to upgrade php, you could have run: ./build php n

Try this to see if the problems is solved:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update (always run this before anything else)
./build versions (to check if there is error on any app that is installed, or if there is a new version)
./build rewrite_confs (this will overwrite files in /etc/httpd/conf/ )
./build php n
./build apache

./build versions

I get:

Latest version of Apache: 2.4.4
Installed version of Apache: 2.2.17
Apache 2.2.17 to 2.4.4 update is available.

PHP Deprecated: Comments starting with '#' are deprecated in /usr/local/lib/php.ini on line 322 in Unknown on line 0
Latest version of PHP (mod_php): 5.4.17
Installed version of PHP (mod_php): 5.4.17

Have not gone farther. What does that mean?

That is a permissions problem. It could be solved by either running "./build squirrelmail" or:
Code: 
chown -R webapps:webapps /var/www/html

It means that you have added # on line 322 (at the beginning of it) in file /usr/local/lib/php.ini. You should comment lines out using ";", not the "#" character. Also, it doesn't look like you are running CustomBuild 2.0, because it supports Apache 2.4 only. Please run upgrade commands from http://forum.directadmin.com/showthread.php?t=44743.
 
>>chown -R webapps:webapps /var/www/html

Does not fix the SquirrelMail issue.
 
I think I am on custombuild 2:

[root@server directadmin]# ls -la

Then it seems you have done a incomplete upgrade to custombuild 2.0. I am sorry to say it, but it seems like a mess then. If you want to stay on custombuild 2.0, you should upgrade everything and be prepared to do a lot of manual migration and fixing. Edit: Please see cb 2.0 faq http://forum.directadmin.com/showthread.php?t=44743 you should follow the upgrade instructions there to complete your upgrade to custombuild 2.0.
 
To check for sure what custombuild version you are running, do:

Code: 
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build

Then you will see the custombuild version number at the beginning of the output.

Ok, so you have done a incomplete upgrade to custombuild 2.0. I would recommend you hire a system admin to complete the upgrade and make sure everything is correct. If you want to try a little more yourself, you could do the following:

Delete or rename your php.ini file at: /usr/local/lib/php.ini (then your php.ini will be created again with correct settings for PHP 5.4.x the next time you recompile php). Then:

Code: 
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build php n
./build apache
./build rewrite_confs
./build squirrelmail

After that, you should do ./build versions , and then ./build everything that has a new version or has a error/warning. Edit: And please remember to read the cb 2.0 faq also: http://forum.directadmin.com/showthread.php?t=44743
