Just curious, did you ever come across an error similar to this when installing php5-core and running a few modules (i.e. php5-mysql)? It's preventing php from starting, apparently:

"PHP Warning: PHP Startup: mysql: Unable to initialize module
Module compiled with module API=20060613, debug=0, thread-safety=0
PHP compiled with module API=20050922, debug=0, thread-safety=0
These options need to match
in Unknown on line 0"

OBSD4.2-RELEASE

Just did a package upgrade (pkg_add -u and I'm sure the PKG_PATH was correct)

About the Apache modules, that actually solved the problem for me. It turns out that I had installed the previous PHP5 module in an unorthodox path during my prior 4.1 installation. However, '/usr/local/sbin/phpxs -s' appended the new path below the previous one and Apache just loaded the first one it saw (the wrong one) and ignored the other. I commented the old version out as a future reminder to myself and everything's running hunky dory now =)

Thanks for showing a BSD neophyte the error of his ways ;)

Yeah, and if you want more information about chroot'ed Apache, the best place to look is in the official FAQ.

Why the hostility toward headset users? Some of us find it extremely inconvenient to frantically dig our mobiles out of whatever pocket, purse, holster, etc. we lug them in whenever we receive a call. Headsets allow us to readily answer a call with a click of a button. It sounds to me like someone's a little bitter/jealous/crotchety. Hey you kids! GET OFF THE LAWN!

It's "DSP", sweety, short for Digital Signal Processing. Nice exposition on a worthy and chic device, though.
