Could you explain how to install ghostscript and ghostviewer? I can’t seem to get this to work. How do I know if they are even installed? Please help!

Something is definitely messed up on my end. It was working fine on 10.6.2. But randomly I’ll hit refresh on my php scripts and firefox tries to download them. Along with a segmentation fault in the Error Log.

[Mon Apr 12 11:29:02 2010] [notice] child pid 869 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

After that happens it will start to behave as normal, just randomly does this.

I haven’t been having any problems with 10.6.3 with Apple PHP 5.3. Everything seems to be fine for me.

Is anyone having issues with 10.6.3? I can’t tell if it’s this zencart install or if everything is messed up. I keep getting segmentation faults.

I never worry about if the 5.0.45 or whichever version doesn’t match the internal PHP MySQL ND drivers. It won’t really cause any issues. If you wanted to make them match, you would have to recompile your PHP binary to use the same version of mysql you are using, or create an extension using the same core mysql as your server revision is. Though I’ve been using 5.0.5-dev mysqlnd along side mysql server 5.0.45 or others, and it has not caused any issues.

This was really helpful… Indeed that mcrypt messahe on phpMyadmin was quite annoying. However I got a new error on PhPMyAdmin:

Your PHP MySQL library version mysqlnd 5.0.5-dev – 081106 – $Revision: 1.3.2.27 $ differs from your MySQL server version 5.0.45. This may cause unpredictable behavior.

Any thoughts on how to attack that?
I am running a LAMP installation on Snow Leopard…

Thanks!

I’m having trouble getting imagick to install with MAMP. The imagick.so file that is compiles is x86_64 and I think MAMP requires a universal or i386. Any tips on how I might be able to overcome this issue? When I start MAMP, my PHP log says:
[17-Feb-2010 10:42:48] PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library ‘/Applications/MAMP/bin/php5/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/imagick.so’ – (null) in Unknown on line 0

This is also happening with magickwand.so

I learned all my PHP extension skills from working with PHP and Mac OS X for many years. Installation for PHP extensions vary slightly for each operating system and configuration. You can read more about it in the PHP.net site docs.

Thank you for this great information. I’d like to know where you learned how to install the PHP extensions. Is this in the PHP documentation?
