Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67606&edit=1 ID: 67606 Comment by: dz at heroku dot com Reported by: ondrej@php.net Summary: FPM with mod_fastcgi/apache2.4 is broken after db537b1f commit Status: Assigned Type: Bug Package: FPM related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.6.0RC2 Assigned To: dzuelke Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Fixed in https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/765 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-07-14 08:40:39] ondrej@php.net David, 1) Debian has patched mod_fastcgi that works with Apache 2.4 if you need compilable source code: https://packages.qa.debian.org/liba/libapache-mod-fastcgi.html 2) I am not saying this has to be fixed in FPM, if you can come up with fix for mod_fastcgi, I think it be sufficient. Also "php-fcgi" is just a placeholder, it could be named "queen-of-england" and it would work the same. It just have to match the other parts of the config file and the important part is the "FastCgiExternalServer". Ondrej ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-07-14 08:34:14] tyrael@php.net thanks for the heads-up! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-07-11 16:04:45] dz at heroku dot com To explain the issue a bit, the breakage seems to stem from intentionally broken or non-existant paths handed to mod_fastcgi so it somehow knows to pass stuff to PHP-FCGI (it's all quite hacky, as many comments on the Interwebs point out). In more recent versions of Debian, apparently php-fcgi is the FPM, not the CGI binary. That's why the FPM change affects this. People are using this approach because it was documented before FPM existed. The code that my PR removed basically inadvertently fixed up those paths even though it was meant to address something totally different. Will report back with more findings. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-07-11 15:47:33] dz at heroku dot com Yes, agreed, I'm looking into it. Building mod_fastcgi with recent Apache versions is actually a bit of a challenge, but no worries, we'll get there. Expect an updated patch soon; I want to get a fix into RC3. Who is that "dzuek" assignee guy though? ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-07-11 15:38:04] tyrael@php.net David: the original premise on that pull request was that the removed parts shouldn't really affect existing installations: "Clearly, neither applies in the case of FastCGI, so both are safe to delete." I would be glad if we could keep the compatibility with mod_fastcgi. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
