You see the following lines in Apache’s error log (/var/log/apache2/error.log):eval(ez_write_tag([[728,90],’howtoforge_com-box-3′,’ezslot_10′,106,’0′,’0′]));

 PHP Deprecated: Comments starting with '#' are deprecated in /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/ps.ini on line 1 in Unknown on line 0

Solution

Open /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/ming.ini:

vi /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/ming.ini

The file looks like this:

# configuration for php MING module
extension=ming.so 

Remove the first line so that it looks like this:

extension=ming.so 

Do the same for the file /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/ps.ini:

vi /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/ps.ini

The file looks like this:

# configuration for php PS module
extension=ps.so

Remove the first line so that it looks like this:

extension=ps.so

Then restart Apache:

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
