Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=30124&edit=1 ID: 30124 Updated by: krakjoe@php.net Reported by: john at wws5 dot com Summary: Provide way to configure php apache module name -Status: Open +Status: Wont fix Type: Feature/Change Request -Package: Feature/Change Request +Package: *General Issues Operating System: Red Hat Linux 3 ES PHP Version: 4.3.8 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: It's been more than ten years since you first asked the question. When you asked it, it might have been a thing we could consider ... all these years later there is an untold amount of documentation, and knowledge in the ecosystem that relies on certain things being true ... This just isn't a thing we can reasonably change today, so rather than leave the bug open for another decade, I'm closing today ... sorry about the wait :) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-17 01:39:46] john at wws5 dot com After doing some more digging I realized that for this to work you would also need to provide a way of changing the php MIME type when doing the build. Sorry, not that familiar with how apache modules work, although I think that has changed after this experience!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-16 23:36:07] john at wws5 dot com Description: ------------ My purpose for filing this bug report is to help provide a way of using two php apache modules with the same apache server. I have searched high and low but have not found any documentation on how to do this except using sym links in conjunction with the cgi-bin version of php. Using --enable-versioning you can concurrently run php version 3 and version 4 at the same time, however using two modules of version 4 is not supported unless you manually edit the source files. Perhaps there is a reason for this so I apologize if I am making a blunder. My suggested solution is to provide a way of specifying the module name with the configure command when building php. An alternative way would be to enhance the --enable-versioning configuration switch to name the module phpx_y_z_module where x, y and z are the version numbers. For example, php4_3_8_module. Thank you for all your hard work!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=30124&edit=1
