Thanks, Jamie for your response.
In fact, yesterday they fixed it by (according to them) replacing the httpd
binary on my machine. I assume this is what you were referring to about by
saying 'they hacked it up bad.'
In any case that's what it took to fix the problem.
Thanks again also to everyone else who took a stab at the problem. I'm sure
glad its fixed!

OK, here's the current situation with this
problem. If anyone has any ideas
as to how this can be resolved please let me know. If not, since it is
apparently not a mediawiki software issue, but a server issue, I'll stop
updating this list about it.
I noticed this morning that phpinfo, run from the web, shows that I'm
running php version 4.0.6. I reported this to the support people (we were
on php 4.3.9 until a few days ago!), and they ran php -v at the command
line and reported that I'm in fact running version 4.3.9.
They/It lied. If it says you're running 4.0.6, it means one of two things:
- Apache is using PHP v4.0.6
- They hacked it up bad and you're screwed
Why would the web show a different php version? I
don't know yet.
- Different values of $PATH for Apache and shell
- Different version of PHP in the Apache module than the stand-alone binary
- They hacked Apache or PHP up bad and you're not going to be able to fix it
But on the web phpinfo reports php on a different
server from my server! [
noir.*.* vs. mormonstoday.*.* -- *.* is the provider's common domain name
for all machines it provides]
Did you mention that when talking to the tech?
In contrast, normal http requests are being sent
to the mormonstoday
server. Why php requests are redirected elsewhere I don't know. I've sent a
message to the support people and will call them in a few minutes.
I'm assuming that it's an internal-only redirect, ie it's not visible to
the browser.
But if someone has an idea of where I can check
see how this can be fixed,
please let me know.
Your host.
I strongly suspect that my provider has screwed
up something. But I don't
know what.
That is seems to be the case. It may or may not be PHP/Apache directly
(eg, they accidently put you on the wrong machine).
