httpd.conf flags cause seg fault on configtest

This is a cross-post because I am not sure if this is a php or mod_ssl problem. I have several servers running the same php setup without mod_ssl and it works. In httpd.conf I want to enable magic_quotes_gpc. So in the virtual directory I place: php_flag magic_quotes_gpc on This is just like all my other servers with php and without mod_ssl and it works like a charm. When I do it on this platform which is: mod_ssl-2.8.0-1.3.17 PHP Version 4.0.4pl1 I get: root@server5:/usr/local/apache/conf# ../bin/apachectl configtest ../bin/apachectl: line 184: 29282 Segmentation fault $HTTPD -t root@server5:/usr/local/apache/conf# Any ideas why it would happen on the mod_ssl server. -Bob
