Mod_php is at version 4.3.2 and apache is at 2.0.47 According to PHP this setup is br0ken. The recommended version for php is 4.3.1 for any apache prior to 2.0.49. The apache API has changed since 2.0.49 and php has been made to match this API. so the combination with the 2.0.47 API is not stable. this is the way they put it on their site: Note: Apache 2.0 SAPI-support started with PHP 4.2.0. PHP 4.2.3 works with Apache 2.0.39, don't use any other version of Apache with PHP 4.2.3. However, the recommended setup is to use PHP 4.3.0 or later with the most recent version of Apache2. All mentioned versions of PHP will work still with Apache 1.3.x. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.use php4.3.1 for mod_php 2.go get coffee 3.

2.0.4[79] > 2.0.39 And the last time the PHP page for Apache2 was updated was "Last updated: Fri, 30 May 2003".
http://www.php.net/install.apache2 the last update was on aug 2. And the line: PHP 4.2.3 works with Apache 2.0.39, don't use any other version of Apache with PHP 4.2.3 seems like one that says it all. These versions result in an unstable combination that may work for most people. Why not put that in ~x86 and keep the stable branch in line with what people over @ php recommend. Btw don't take my word for it, ask over at #php they are the ones that larted me because i used 4.3.2+apache2.0.47 myself. they told me to downgrade and since i just happened to know that my setup was the same as the one gentoo uses by default i just thought i'd tell you bout it.
Hi Marius, The line you're quoting is about PHP 4.2.3 (NOT 4.3.2) <-- i.e. an old version of PHP, and in fact the first version that included Apache 2 support. It is this version of PHP which only works with Apache 2.0.39 (which is an old version of Apache 2). As the quote from the website says, the recommended combination is the latest Apache 2 + PHP 4.3.x - which is exactly what we have on Gentoo. That's why it's the stable combination - because it *is* what the PHP folks recommend. I think whoever you've been talking to on #php has been messing you about. Ignore them. Or send them to talk to us ;-) Best regards, Stu
Marius, You ignored my comment and didnt answer my question. Why not give it a shot then you'll see why this "bug report" is bogus.
O damn, i must be getting dislectic. sorry guys i misread the 4.2.3 <-> 4.3.2 thing. And Donny Davies i didn't ignore your comment acctualy my 2nd entry was directed at this. I just misread the versioning. sorry guys my bad /
no problem, we all have off days :)
