== Summary == mod_php (apache2handler) is an optional httpd module to execute PHP scripts, not used. == Owner == * Name: [[User:Remi| Remi Collet]] * Email: remi at fedoraproject dot org == Detailed Description == By default php-fpm is used for a few versions. mod_php is not supported for threaded modules. mod_php usage also increases security risk, sharing the same process than httpd. Drop mod_php from php build. This will only affect user of httpd in "prefork" mode, which will also use php-fpm. php-fpm is already used but most users of httpd and nginx without any issue. The "php" package will be kept as a metapackage, installing (weak dependencies) most commonly used extension, thus reducing the difference between "yum install php" (flat repository) and "yum module install php" (modular repository). == Benefit to Fedora == Only provide the modern way to execute PHP in a web server. == Scope == PHP rebuild (mod_php build is already conditional) * Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Release engineering: N/A * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) == Upgrade/compatibility impact == N/A (not a System Wide Change) == How To Test == * install and play with your web applications == User Experience == No change. == Dependencies == None (dependency on "php" is already forbidden by Guidelines) == Contingency Plan == * revert * Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Blocks release?
