#31698 [Opn->Bgs]: install.txt Apache2 dangling FAQ ref

ID: 31698 Updated by: philip@php.net -Summary: update php-src INSTALL files Reported By: fumanchu at amor dot org -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Win2k PHP Version: 4.3.10 New Comment: This bug is bogus. If it were to remain open (every time a word is changed in the install section), it would remain open for an eternity. The INSTALL docs are updated before every release. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-26 13:48:13] nlopess@php.net here they are: http://testes.aborla.net/install-docs.zip INSTALL -> php-src/INSTALL install.txt -> php-src/win32/install.txt ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-26 04:10:12] sean@php.net Sorry. Rasmus had changed the FAQ. For some reason I thought he'd sent a patch. Excuse my inaccuracy. S ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-26 02:09:09] philip@php.net The piece of text that refers to the FAQ was changed to: We do not recommend using a threaded MPM in production with Apache2. Use the prefork MPM instead, or use Apache1. For information on why, read the following And the FAQ title to: Why shouldn't I use Apache2 with a threaded MPM in a production environment? See these diffs: http://cvs.php.net/diff.php/phpdoc/en/language-snippets.ent?r1=1.125&r2=1.126 http://cvs.php.net/diff.php/phpdoc/en/faq/installation.xml?r1=1.40&r2=1.41 This bug report is due to an "old" install.txt compared to a new PHP Manual build. So, this bug is officially bogus although it's understandable why it was opened. If someone feels the script that generates install.txt from the doc sources should include links then open a new bug report as that's a different issue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-26 01:51:28] sean@php.net I changed this FAQ entry. The install.txt file also needs to be changed, though. S ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-26 01:03:02] jed@php.net The Apache2 threading FUD is what the INSTALL file is referring to, and this is located at: http://us2.php.net/manual/en/faq.installation.php#faq.installation.apache2 It appears someone got lazy and converted text to INSTALL, without preserving links -- this problem appears in more than one place. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
