ID: 27583 User updated by: stewart dot james at vu dot edu dot au Reported By: stewart dot james at vu dot edu dot au Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Any PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment:
I read 27323. As a admin I plead ignorant to apache2 at the moment. I resolved to worry about it one the apache group were pushing it as the best. Last week I hit the apache website - curious as to where they were up to and found that their site indicates that apache2 is the best option. Their download pages say "apache2 is the best available version" and "also available apache1.3" I bring this up as 27323 and the apache group obviously have a difference of opinion on apache2, perhaps the difference is only when apache2 is running threaded? In which case perhaps php and apache2 would be OK in production on non threaded apache2 servers? Which of course should be reflected in the documentation :) :) Stewart Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-13 17:10:08] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This was already discussed in #27323. But Derick, what do you think that needs to be changed in the documentation? I may add whatever you decide that's worth change. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-13 06:07:27] [EMAIL PROTECTED] But if we do that then we can expect much more useless bugreports, so the current statement is safe, we just need to clarify it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-12 20:10:13] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is that really our position on the issue, anyway? The PHP core is perfectly stable on Apache 2 -- It's just a few extensions that cause trouble... We should probably be saying that instead of just rejecting Apache 2 entirely. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-12 19:43:58] stewart dot james at vu dot edu dot au Description: ------------ www.php.net/install.apache2 says not to use php4 + apache2 in a production environment, however, the reason for it is not stated. A search of the bug database for apache2 did not enlighten the statement either. Statements such as this would benefit from qualification immediately below it allowing easy access to the reasons why apache2 should not be used with php4 in production. Expected result: ---------------- Enlightenment as to why apache2 and php4 is bad Actual result: -------------- Frustration as enlightenment was not achieved ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27583&edit=1
