Last modified: 2007-04-18 12:43:28 EDT
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020530 Description of problem: On update of apache to 1.3.22-5.7.1 causes a problem with logging module. The error message appears in error_log after restart of apache after logrotate. The error message is :- [Fri Jun 21 04:02:08 2002] [notice] SIGHUP received. Attempting to restart Syntax error on line 212 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /etc/httpd/modules/mod_log_config.so into server: /etc/httpd/modules/mod_log_config.so: undefined symbol: ap_escape_logitem This is happening on two 7.1 installs that we are running. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. no action needed just try to restart apache after upgrade. Actual Results: Apache was not running. Expected Results: apache should have started up. Additional info:
Ok, I have take a look at the source and a external reference to ap_escape_log is patched in by the redhat-patch apache_1.3.22-chunky.patch at line: 236. +API_EXPORT(char *) ap_escape_logitem(pool *p, const char *str); The function ap_escape_logitem() gets patched from apache_1.3.22-chunky.patch to apache/src/main in "util.c" line 1473.
ah.... The apache directory off SOURCES is not linked to apache-1.3.22 and I had to make the link manually. I wonder did one of the developers have a hard directory instead of a link to actual apache-1.3.22 directory and patched the wrong dir on the build? Just a guess.

This seems to be intermittent, too... the logrotate problem (see bug 67224) triggers this error every time. If I do "/sbin/service httpd restart" I don't get the error and the server starts fine.

Bug 67196 is not a duplicate of this one. Please reopen unless you can explain why it's a duplicate, or you plan to fix it at the same time as this (failure to attempt to restart the server after the upgrade is a separate issue from the server crashing when you try to restart it)
67196 is staying closed, but I would like to add that the apache post install script should restart the server on an upgrade.
Okay, I agree the restart seems to have fixed the issue. The server will now start and stop no problems. Can someone pass this information on to the packager of apache. Thanks. Joe.
Please reopen this bug. This is also a problem with RedHat 7.3. After upgrading from 1.3.23-11 to 1.3.23-14 and not restarting the server the server will crash after a while with the error message above.
