PHP errors specific to Fedora

[Ed Holden]

Hi.  I was wondering if anyone was familiar with the differences between 
Apache and PHP in Red Hat 8.0 and those same packages in Fedora Core 1. 
  Something seems to have changed, because I'm phasing out a RH8 web 
server and replacing it with FC1, but on the new server I get an error 
on one of my PHP pages.  It looks like this:

  Warning: preg_match() expects parameter 2 to be string, array given in 
/var/www/squirrelmail-1.4.2/plugins/vacation/vacation.php on line 33

Fortunately this is the only error on the whole site.  The page in 
question is a Squirrelmail PHP-based webmail plugin that allows users to 
manipulate the vacation program from their browser.  This error repeats 
three times in a row.

I've tried a number of things to fix it, including deciperhing the PHP 
code (which seems fine), but I then decided to determine whether the 
problem recurred when I ported the old version of the site to the new 
server.  It did, so the error seems to be specific to FC1 (but not RH8), 
even though the code is identical.

Apache is at 2.0.48-1.2 and PHP is at 4.3.4-1.1.  On my old server they 
were at 2.0.40-8 and 4.2.2-8.0.5.  Anyone out there know whether this is 
a configuration error or a problem with the packages themselves?

Regards,
Ed Holden
