The package 5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu3 have the correct upstart script with "reload signal USR2", which works great on Ubuntu Trusty since it uses upstart >= 1.10.0
For fixing the https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5/+bug/1272788 bug a new package was released, called "5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4", which comments out "reload signal USR2". Making it work on Precise but breaking on Trusty. Installing a new Ubuntu machine with the latest version and latest PHP should be the priority to work out of the box. No adjustments should be needed. If anyone wants to use Precise with the latest PHP version, adjustments to the upstart script are okay. Hence, IMO this fix should be reversed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to php5 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1242376 Title: "reload php5-fpm" crashes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5/+bug/1242376/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
