libcurl.so.3

[lightpace]

stopped apache
tried to restart it and got:

Failed to start apache :
Syntax error on line 128 of /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /usr/local/libexec/apache/libphp4.so into server: Shared object "libcurl.so.3" not found
/usr/local/sbin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started

Please advise

Does /usr/local/libexec/apache/libphp4.so exist?

I'm sorry, ignore that last post.

Do 'ldd /usr/local/libexec/apache/libphp4.so'

You'll probably find that the libcurl is not anywhere it expects to find it. Try 'locate libcurl.so.3' to see if it exists, if not install it, if it does, then you probably need to alter your ld.so path.

hey ericbrunson

thanks for the solution, i didnt get the chance to try yours "ld" solution. but i did exactly what you posted in your last post, locate the libcurl.so.3 and copy it where it should be. other solution i found is to recompile the curl if installed or install it from ports collection, if not.

Anyways thanx alot..
have a good one
