PHP/MySQL updates within OS X S and Security updates?

Hey All,
Does anyone know of a link that will provide any info about PHP, PHP plug-in, or MySQL updates that are included in the Server OS or security updates, or any other software updates? This way I won't have to read through all of Apple's support articles for all OS and security updates.
Updating a bunch of web servers from OS X S 10.6.3 to OS X 10.6.6
Thank you in advance!

Great news thanks!

  • Safari 3.1 and Security update on PowerPC G5 dual 2.5 now super slow HELP !

    I installed the safari update and security update today and now my Mac is running Slower then it ever has. I have a PowerPC G5 Dual 2.5 liquid cooled 2.5gigs of ram. I ran the hardware test disk and all checked out fine I really have no idea what to do and this machine is running like a hog. I would appreciate any help anyone might have for me.

    If your Safari keeps crashing, or if you are updating Safari (or just have):
    Input Managers and other plug-ins from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
    So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari.
    Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Add-on that have been frequently mentioned here, among others, for causing such problems are Piclens, Saft, AcidSearch and Pithhelmet. If you have them, trash them and go the developer's sites to see if new versions are available for Safari 3.1.
    You should also ensure, if you are running Tiger 10.4.11, that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Update 2008-002. Like all security updates, this requires a restart and a permission repair.
    As Leopard also uses Safari 3.1, much of the above may well also apply to Leopard, but is not guaranteed. Moreover:
    Some users have mentioned that the latest Flash Player (v.9.0.115.0) conflicts with Safari in Leopard, and that they have needed to revert to v. 9.0.47. This can be downloaded from here:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14266&sliceId=1
    To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
    Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
    • /Library/InputManagers
    • ~/Library/InputManagers
    especially prior to system updates (they can always be added back one-by-one later).
    Additionally try this:
    Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
    Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
    form values
    download.plist
    Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
    com.apple.Safari.plist
    Repair permissions.
    Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
    If not, MacFixit have published a very detailed (very!) article on speeding up a slow Safari, here:

  • Start up problems after Safari 3.1 and Security update

    Updated safari and security update last night.
    Safari downloaded and installed but there was an error downloading or installing the security update, I forgot.
    After I restarted everything booted up fine, but was stuck on "Starting Mac OS X" screen.
    Did a fsck and zap the pram, still stuck.
    Today I tried booting up in safe mode, stuck on the gray screen with the apple logo.
    Then I tried booting up from an external firewire dvd drive. Repaired permissions, repaired the disk, but it is still stuck on "Starting Mac OS X" screen. Help please...
    Thank you

    Ok i had a similar problem, with all the recent updates for Leopard, including the 10.5.2 combo update... the 12" PowerBook G4 kept getting stuck on the grey apple and spinning wheel... if it managed to get past this it would get stuck on the blue screen!!!
    The way i got around this, after trying all these other tips was: Archived & Installed 10.5; restarted, waited; downloaded 10.5.2 Combo update, installed; restarted, waited; waited; waited; after getting back to desktop, restarted, waited; then ran Software Update only installing one at a time, and after each install, restarted, waited; when all Software updates completed, proceeded with iLife updates etc... It took a while (still quicker than the 3 days of failed installs and updates) with a lot of waiting on the blue screen (5-20mins) but we got there in the end. Disks where checked with Leopard Disk Utility before and after, permissions where checked before and after completing all installs, also with a DW 4.1 optimization. Also note worthy is the RAM was upgraded from the initial 256Mb (!!!) with an extra Gb.

  • Unable to Reboot After Latest Apple Updates (SA-2011-06-23-1 and Security Update 2011-004)

    Hi All,
    After applying today's updates (06/23/2011) in APPLE-SA-2011-06-23-1 Mac OS X v10.6.8 and Security Update 2011-004, my MacBook will no longer boot. Prior to updating, the MacBook workked perfectly (except for the occasional error entry in the system and kernel log). The MackBook model number is A1278, with a RAM upgrade (4 GB).
    When booting in NORMAL mode, the grey screen with Apple logo (and spinning wheel) is shown for about 50 seconds. The device never shows the blue background or login window. It simply shuts down like the power was pulled.
    When booting in SAFE mode, the grey screen with Apple logo (and spinning wheel) is shown for about 1 minute 30 seconds. The blue background is shown and quickly transitions to the login windows. About 45 seconds after the login window is shown, the machine shuts down like the power was pulled.
    On the few occassions I logged in to take advantage of the 45 second safe mode window (before shutdown), I was *not* able to copy off my log files (in /log/var) to a thumb drive because the computer would not mount the USB device.
    When I peeked at the system's log file, I caught the tail end of "signature validation failed" for a bunch of hardware - from video to audio. I can only peek because the computer will shutdown before I have an opportunity to study anything in detail. The failed verifications may or may not be related to the shutdown - signature verfication might be disabled in safe mode; I simply don't know.
    It seems the world's most advanced operating system [tm] is performing the world's most epic failure. Any ideas to get this brick working again would be greatly appreciated.

    Here's what I've found:
    (1) I cannot run Disk Utility because I don't have my install disk handy
    (2) I cannot run Repair Permissions because Apple does not make a separate ISO available to fix their mistakes
    (3) There does not appear to be a wat to back out updates (ie, no Add/Remove Programs)
    I was able to boot into safe mode and perform:
        > sudo bash
        $ chmod -R root /
    Amazingly, the command ran to completion. Unfortunately, it did not fix the problem. As soon as some spare cycles were available (interesting indeed!), the machine shutdown.
    +1 to Apple engineers for creating a broken patch
    +1 to Apple quality assurance for letting the junk out the door
    +1 to Apple, for not offering an ISO to fix a broken installation
    +1 to Steve, who has managed to keep his anti-trust lock on the hardware and broken software
    Great job, Apple

  • Airport problems after 8/12 airport and security update

    My MacBook Pro which had been working flawlessly since I got it last year received the airport and security updates distributed today. After the reboot my airport turns itself off after a few minutes and will not come back on and the computer seems to be running hotter than usual. Booting from a recent clone of the drive without the updates did not fix the problem and the card turned itself off a few minutes after the reboot and will not come back on.
    Anyone having similar problems after the update?

    Does your problem occur only when unplugged. If so, then maybe this update is for you: http://support.apple.com/downloads/AirPortClient_Update_for_MacBook_and_MacBookPro. Check it out, but use your own judgment in installing; not much info is provided.

  • HT5281 Update to Lion 10.7.4 and Security update 02/2012 upped Ruby load to the ceiling

    After updating our home Mac mini server to Lion 10.7.4 and Security update 02/2012, with the machine now just sitting idle, no user logged-in, network cable unplugged, Ruby is generating 96% load on the CPU at all times, with processor temperature running near its limit and fans blowing full-blast.
    Switching off the Wiki server cut the load back to normal, Ruby process went behind the curtain, and things appear back to normal, but of course this is no cure, it's just a temporary fix-up.
    Any other user is experiencing anything similar?
    Any possible solution in form of a next update coming soon, for the graphic-shell-only illiterate users like me?

    Yesterday I applied the latest Lion Server Update to my Mac Mini Server (not sure about the update's number).
    I also experienced the "fans blowing full-blast" symptom for no apparent reason (no heavy apps running - Mac almost idle- and CPU, HDD, Network monitors flatlining). As well as a minor issue on the screen-sharing side: it didn't display the initial grey-background login page, but after I logged in blindly it was fine.
    The update did a restart but no power-off, so I thought the issues might occur because the hardware hadn't properly reset (yep, I had to use Windows at work...)
    Dunno if that was the cause, but after a shutdown, power-off and restart, the symptoms disappeared. Will see... so far so good.

  • Epson PictureMate Shows "Stopped" After Last Java and Security Updates

    Hi,
    After installing the following updates ("Final Cut Pro Update" (5.1.3), "Java for Mac OS X 10.4, Release 5" (5.0), "Security Update 2007-002 (PowerPC)" (1.0), "Security Update 2007-001" (1.0) and "Daylight Saving Time Update" (1.0)). My Epson PictureMate started showing the dreaded "Printer Stopped" issue noted y many other on many other printers.
    I've tried the Printer Setup Utility "reset printing system", removing and adding back the printer etc. The Epson Photo 820 still works fine. The PictureMate will also work fine from any other account. The account I'm using it in is not an admin acocunt, but a Standard account. The other family accounts can also use the printer, so the issue is local to my 1 main user.
    I've downloaded and tried the "PSR" utility from www.fixamac.com. The utility doesn't find anything wrong, but it does complain about CUPS permissions (as did Apple's Disk Utility). I'm thinking the resetting of the printer system deletes a number of directories and when they are recreated they seem to come back with permissions the system (and PSR) doesn't like. Both utilities repair and don't find the issues again, but no joy on the printing.
    I've also dumped the preferences with no change.
    Since other users can print fine, I'm assuming CUPS and the printer drivers are OK. Any idea what other secret files in my User folder could be messed up and affecting the single printer?
    Thanks in advance.

    There are a LOT of Java based exploits, so even 3.6.11 isn't fully patched, there are cross-platform exploits, and bots running wild.
    Did you also remove your cache folders?
    Firefox: I use 4.0 betas, NoScript I feel is a must.
    From MacIntouch:
    Security software vendors warn of an active, Java-based Trojan Horse that affects Mac users. Disabling Java in your web brower is a highly-recommended counter-measure. Also flushing DNS cache.

  • PHP include_path - Did something change in a recent security update?

    We had a scare tonight when our highly customized webmail system did not come back after the system was rebooted. I quickly discovered that the include_path for php was set to ".:" which will obviously never work. Since the server has been running for months without modification except for a few security updates this week, I was wondering if Apple changed something?
    To quickly fix the issue, I duplicated the php.ini.default file, renamed it php.ini, and modified the line that read:
    ;include_path = ".:/php/includes"
    so that it now reads
    include_path = ".:/usr/lib/php" (note that this line is no longer commented out)
    I then restarted apache with this command:
    sudo apachectl graceful restart
    and everything started to work again without any issues at all.
    I did some searching and found this recent thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3668413&#3668413 that basically lists the same issue with 10.3.9. Is this a bug or is it intentional?
      Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    Some games lately can push graphic cards further and harder.
    Check PC graphic/game forums to see if you can find a relationship.
    No way in Mac OS to regulate or control gpu fan, monitor temp (?) or other things all taken for granted on PC and Windows.
    SmcFanControl 2.2.x - at least you can boost 3 of the system fans and change the default and set profiles for work loads. Try a "game profile" of 1500 rpm.
    If - and I assume the 8800GT is probably starting to stress and strain and slow death - it would happen in Windows also, if you have it installed.
    8800GT: people blamed 10.6 and other updates as if it caused their card to fail. Unlikely though maybe with a card that was marginal or had trouble to begin with.
    There weren't nvidia drivers in security update, but were in 10.6.4; in SL Graphics Update 1.0; and there is/was Mac OS X CUDA 3.x patch/update also you should be using. There were updates for GTX 285 that should have included the 8800GT as well probably.
    When you system crashes, or before there is a software update, by all means ---
    CLONE YOUR SYSTEM / RUN DISK WARRIOR (don't rely on just Apple DU First Aid)
    Easy to blame an update for a pre-existing issue that was present.
    And always have a backup you can boot from of older version of OS X (even 10.6.3).
    Some people have gone back to 10.6.0 and then only up to 10.6.3.
    Try a clean system install on a newly zeroed hard drive and test everything.
    Wait for new graphic drivers.
    Plan on ATI 5870 or 5770.

  • Browser compatibility with 10.6.8 and security update

    Hi. I'm running Snow Leopard (v10.6.8) on a mid-2010 quad-core Mac Pro. According to Apple Support, Safari v5.1.10 (which I am running) is the recommended version for this OS. It works great except that every so often I get a warning about Safari not being able to verify the identity of the website "name" and I have to flush the DNS Cache using a Terminal command which I found online. When I was connected to the internet using Airport, the warning was popping up frequently but after switching to an ethernet connection it's much less of an issue. Is this something I'll just have to live with or is there anything else I can do?
    My next question concerns the Security Update 2013-004 that Software Update displays as being an available update. I've read a little about it and it seems to apply mostly to the newer Mac operating systems. Should I just ignore it or will it be of any benefit to me? I don't want to download and install it if I don't really need it.
    Lastly, is there a particular version of Firefox that anyone would recommend for 10.6.8? I think Firefox 18 was the first version that would work w/ Snow Leopard. How much higher should I go?

    What is your objection to not simply upgrading OS X to Mavericks?
    Upgrading to Mavericks
    You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
        OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?

  • Beach Balls and freezes after installing Safari 3.1 and security update

    Hi,
    I just recently installed the safari 3.1 update and the security update. My machine is an iMac 2.4 GHz with 10.5.2. Prior to this, the machine only had one freeze (had to power off) which happened a about a month back. Since the update, 2 days ago, the machine seems to show the beach ball more often. On one specific occasion (happened when my son was using it), the Chess game was running, and the mouse cursor turned into a beach ball and everything froze - can only move the mouse cursor/beach ball but nothing else responded. Even hitting the caps lock key took minutes before the caps lock light came on. Me being a windows user for a long time, I was blindly trying to find the keyboard equivalent of ctrl-alt-del to pull up a process list of some kind so that I can kill the offending app. But was not successful, hence I had to power off.
    On another occasion, and this time, it happened to me - the beach ball came up as I was using safari. I could use other stuff in the OS, but any time I brought the cursor over safari, it would turn into a beach ball. After waiting a few minutes and clicking away on the safari window, the beach ball turned into a finger cursor when I clicked on the http address window - and safari started to work like normal again.
    I'm wondering if anyone else has had experiences similar to this and if there are any steps I can take to prevent this again.
    Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the Apple forums:
    Did you perform both updates at the same time? I usually recommend doing them one-at-a-time, so if anything happens you know which update caused the problem.
    I especially never do a system update with any other update. I always do that one last, and wait for the dust to settle by reading this board first.
    You should run DU and check the HD and repair permissions. That's a start.

  • IMac G5 freezes on start up after ITunes, Quicktime and Security update

    On June 2nd, the following event occurred on my IMac G5 (model year 2005) equipped Mac OS 10.4.9
    Upon completion of the automatic update for Itunes, Quicktime and a security update, the computer restarted.
    However, the start-up sequence freezes on a grey screen with the logo for the power button displayed in the middle and a message inviting to hold down the poer button down for 5 sec to re-start.
    the only way to complete the start up sequence is to hold down the apple key while pressing the power button.
    Does anyone have any suggestions to regain control of my computer ?thank you in advance.

    Welcome to Discussions - Hopefully, you repaired permissions both before and after updating, if not, it might be a good thing to do now. Also, you are not alone in having problems with the update, take a look at this.
    Generally, it's better to install updates one by one, so that if you have problems, you know which one caused them.

  • Best way to Report on OS and Security Update Status?

    Now that our OS X roll-out is nearly complete, we need to be able to get reports on all client mMacs , their OS versions and, more specifically, their security update status.
    The "Software Difference" report seems to be falling short on showing the information we're looking for. And the "System Overview" report seems only to show straight OS and point-release level, not security update info.
    Can someone recommend a better way to get this information?

    I haven't come across a command that can show what updates have been installed, but to see a list of updates that a computer needs, try sending
    softwareupdate -l
    (that's the lower-case letter L as in "list") through the Send Unix Command (send as root). Here's the full details of the command:
    usage: softwareupdate <mode> [<args> ...]
         -l | --list          List all appropriate updates
         -d | --download          Download Only
         -i | --install          Install
              <label> ...     specific updates
              -a | --all          all appropriate updates
              -r | --recommended     only recommended updates

  • Arch and security updates

    Hi all,
    I was thinking about security updates and wondered how Arch deals with them.
    For example:
    Gentoo has a huge repo and security patches are applied when needed.
    Ubuntu has a huge repo only if you enable the universe and multiverse repos, but they don't get security updates from the Ubuntu devs
    How does Arch handle security updates? What about the packages in community? I'm guessing that they are based on when the maintainers update them?
    Thanks

    well when i used it or maintained packages for it most security "patches" came in the form of upgrading to the newest version. For the rare times that a new version of a insecure appp was not released patches would be applied and the arch version woud go up.
    God only knows what they do now though.
