Just some notes on some of the issues I hit in updating from Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) to 12.10 (Quantic Quetzal), in the event they’re of use to someone.<\/p>\n
I was receiving a ton of errors from cron, with the text:<\/p>\n
PHP Warning:\u00c2\u00a0 PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library ‘\/usr\/lib\/php5\/20100525\/pam_auth.so’ – \/usr\/lib\/php5\/20100525\/pam_auth.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
While there appears to be a line of thought (via Google) that one needs to install php5-auth-pam or php5-pam … I didn’t find either package with a simple apt-get install, and didn’t bother investigating further.<\/p>\n
The actual fix was to check \/etc\/php5\/conf.d. \u00c2\u00a0In that folder was a legacy (few years old) pam_auth.ini file which was attempting to load pam_auth.so. \u00c2\u00a0Removing this file enabled PHP to start.<\/p>\n
WordPress Hiccough<\/h2>\n
WordPress sites didn’t want to start up for me, \u00c2\u00a0claiming a missing wp-config.php. \u00c2\u00a0When I checked \/etc\/wordpress, I found that my old wp-config.php has been copied to a typical wp-config.php.dpkg-bak … but no new file had been installed. \u00c2\u00a0I just replaced back my old copy.<\/p>\n
