#11430 [Ver->Csd]: PHP-CGI executing PHP-CGI thru Apache

ID: 11430 Updated by: edink@php.net Reported By: allanh@netcentralen.dk -Status: Verified +Status: Closed Bug Type: Program Execution Operating System: Linux 2.4 (RH7.3 upd kernel) PHP Version: 4.3.0-dev New Comment: The problem is that php-cgi reads the environmental variables set by apache, to find the correct script to execute, etc. This means that the php-cgi binary that is executed from the cgi script will also try to execute the original cgi scripts. The solution is to use php-cgi binary for executing cgi scripts through apache and php-cli binary for executing command line scripts (including those called withing the cgi script).

I guess the php binary used in httpd.conf is same as in the 'test' script? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-03 08:29:33] allanh@netcentralen.dk When I reported the bug I used the latest version. I just tested again and this now it no longer terminates by itself. It crashed the server. Error messages on the screen saying out of memory -- killed httpd. It is a different server. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-03 07:26:34] sander@php.net Thank you for taking the time to report a problem with PHP. Unfortunately your are not using a current version of PHP -- the problem might already be fixed. Please download a new PHP version from http://www.php.net/downloads.php If you are able to reproduce the bug with one of the latest versions of PHP, please change the PHP version on this bug report to the version you tested and change the status back to "Open". Again, thank you for your continued support of PHP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-06-12 13:12:37] sniper@php.net I can reproduce this with 4.0.6RC3 too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
