[solved] Can't get serendiptity running

EDIT: pretty old one, just marked it as solved.

Hi, i installed serendipity on my archlinux, but i can't get it running.
I tried the LAMP wiki to install apache, mysql and php. I tested the php installation with the test.php in my serendipity dir - and this works. However when i access the index.php of serendipity i get an empty page.

I tried the following:
Code:

# nc 127.0.0.1 80

GET /serendipity HTTP/1.0

HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
Date: Sat, 16 Feb 2008 02:23:04 GMT
Server: Apache

Content-Length: 320
Connection: close

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">

<h1>Moved Permanently</h1>
<p>The document has moved <a href="http://speedy.bachstrasse.de/serendipity/">here</a>.</p>
<hr>
<address>Apache Server at speedy.bachstrasse.de Port 80</address>
</body></html>

I wonder why Firefox does not display this 'Moved permanently' info.

I have no clue about configuring apache. I tried the installation steps at :
http://s9y.org/36.html

When i try to access the site via firefox: http://127.0.0.1/serenpidity, i get the following:

I found out, that php can't find the session_start:

# cat /var/log/messages
Feb 19 20:34:13 localhost httpd: PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function session_start() in /home/httpd/html/test2.php on line 1

PHP 5.2.5 with Suhosin-Patch 0.9.6.2 (cli) (built: Jan 26 2008 23:50:28)

But i have no clue where to look at.

Report the problem to the serendipity developer(s) - you might get a response here, but you would probably get a faster one by going to the source.

Hi, i finally got this fixed:
The following entry in /etc/php/php.ini solved this:

extension=session.so

Thank you.
