php52 unable to load gd.so - libpng.so.5 not found

A

Hi Guys
I know there are numerous similar posts to this one but Ive tried all the things I can find and I'm at my wits end. I have been administering our freebsd servers for a number of years but my knowledge of package management is not what it should be so please forgive my ignorance.

I got myself into a bind following a recent attempt to upgrade php on one of our production webservers. We were running php version 5.2.8 and I updated the ports tree and ran portupgrade on php5 without consulting /usr/ports/UPDATING (i now know that was probably the cause of all the problems). I ran into major issues when apache wouldn't start back up, I was getting core dumps even when I disabled all the php extension modules. So in a bit of a panic to get the box back up, i deleted all php53 packages and went back to php52 (5.2.14). By installing/enabling all the php modules one at a time I was able to get a functioning box up and running.

The only module I have cant seem to get working is gd. See error below.

Code: 
PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/local/lib/php/20060613/gd.so' - Shared object "libpng.so.5" not found

It seems I have libpng.so.6 installed but not libpng.so.5. Creating a symlink managed to fool apache but we get mysterious errors whenever a gd function is called within php.

Code: 
PHP Warning:  imagepng() [<a href='function.imagepng'>function.imagepng</a>]: Unable to open

The exact same thing occurs with libjpeg but different version numbers.

Ive tried deleting all png/gd related packages and reinstalling numerous times without success. I also tried to use portdowngrade on the png package as advised in one post but cant seem to get any of the anoncvs servers to respond??

Ive got a feeling that the package database has been screwed up during this whole process. Ive gone through pkgdb -F a number of times, but I'm not confident i've corrected everything rightly. I'm not skilled enough to answer all its questions confidently. Is there another way to fix it.

I am happy to provide any other information you might need in order to assist me.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Andrew

Symlinking library versions is not the way to do it. Looks like you'll need to do this (and maybe other entries from this file) :

[cmd=]less +/^20100328: /usr/ports/UPDATING[/cmd]
 
Problem solved

Many many Thanks!!

Following the instructions in "updating" I ran:

Code: 
portupgrade -rf graphics/png
portupgrade -rf graphics/jpeg

All seems to be back in order now.
