Re: Power failure = php failure: HELP!

I am running Apache. Xoops, and Squirrelmail on a Fedora 2 server. I recently had a power failure - my daughter turned off my power strip :-( The network card was fried. Anyway, PHP does not seem to be working now. Apache serves static html pages fine, squirrelmail loads in the browser but can't read mailboxes, and the Xoops home page pulls up VERY slowly but doesn't post any graphics. I have spent 2 days trying to find the solution. If anyone has any ideas, it would be much appreciated! What could have happened is that the power outage caused a few bad sectors or lost chains. Or it may have resulted in buffered data not been written to disk. To cut a long story short your php installation would have been corrupted. A reinstall would probably fix the problem.
