apache

I am trying to install Drupal 6.15 on WAMP with PHP version 5.30 and Apache 2.2.11 but I get following error:

Deprecated: Function ereg() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\drupal\includes\file.inc on line 902

It is a 64bit Win7 and error_reporting is set to : E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE

I have already tried with : E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE | E_STRICT

It is just working with : E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED but I am not sure this is the right value.

Thanks for any help!

If you have a small website which uses php and accept just plain text from users or visitors you need to filter each request to be sure that nobody sends html to hack your site. I put following two lines at the top of my php file. Of course you can add the third line for cookies.

	foreach($_GET as $k=>$v)	$_GET[$k] = strip_tags($v);
	foreach($_POST as $k=>$v)	$_POST[$k] = strip_tags($v);

redirect url with parameters

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} url_get_parameter_1=(.*)&url_get_parameter_2=(.*)
RewriteRule ^your/old/directory/file$ your/new/path/%1/%2 [R=301,L]

This code redirects :

example.com/your/old/directory/file?url_get_parameter_1=ALBUMS&url_get_parameter_2=HOLIDAY

to

example.com/your/new/path/ALBUMS/HOLIDAY

I have installed Apache 2.2.4, PHP5 and Mysql5 for long time ago. Everything was perfect working but today when I try to start webserver it gives following error:

...
make_sock: could not bind to
 address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
Note the errors or messages above, and press the <ESC> key to exit.  27...

Any idea why it happens and how to fix it? Is there a way to update Apache without new installation. Because ok settings like httpd.conf etc.

Just another question: Do I need PHP-Suhosin if I have mod_security already installed on my dedicated server? And what is the difference between Apache-Suexec and suphp or php-suexec, make sense to have both installed and in use? Because I have some strange problems with my website, sometimes my site is unreachable for me but if I disconnect and re-connect(change IP) the site is on. There is no server load issues or etc. I had been banned but I dont know who banned me, if mod_sec or apf or suhosin or any other tool.

Today morning woke up and saw httpd not running. I tried to install/update Apache using Cpanel's Easyapache script over webinterface(post 2086/2087) but no chance. I tried the same with ssh as root using putty but I got same error output like this:

Checking that all packages are present and up to date.
!! No method to auto repair package system !!
!! Please visit http://www.cpanel.net/support/could_not_ensurepkgs.htm for help with this error. !!
!! Restoring original working apache !!

I want to setup wildcard subdomains. Also anything.example.com must be redirected or located to example.com. Can I do it with .htaccess or httpd.conf or do I need to change dns settings too ?
