I restarted apache and it started working. I have seen such error previously also but could not determine what caused these error messages.
Could you help me determine ?

HI wrightsonm:
I checked the link suggested by you, this link suggesting to install apache from .tar file and compiling while its not possible to install new apache on production.
Is there any other way to track down what PHP code is causing this problem ?
