Hello community,
Iam new here, and I have a simple question:
Is it possible to run Apache 64bit and PHP 5.2.x (32bit) as Apache Module (mod_php)?? For PHP 5.2.x (32bit) that are more extensions present as for PHP (64bit).
When it is unpossible to mix apache 64bit with PHP 32bit, is it possible to run 32bit and 64bit extensions on PHP 64bit? Or must extension under PHP 64bit also only 64bit?
Best regards from Germany

Hi Matthias,
you can't mix 64 bit with 32 bit. If you realy need to run PHP 32 bit cause of the number of extension you can run it over fcgid with 64 bit apache. That is mostly like running php as module, but separated to apache. With fcgid you are also able to run different versions of php per directory or vhost.
P.S.: Beste Grüße aus dem Norden! |

Hello James_Bond,
although you come from Germany, I write here more diligent in English, so that others also have something like this.  
But now to a other question for this topic.
When I use fcgid for connecting PHP5.3.x (x86) and Apache 2.2.x (x64), can I use persistent database-conncetions? My data-storage-system is oracle and it need very more time to connect and authentification by OCI-Client (in php_oci8.dll).
At the moment, my intranet-web-application run under apache 2.2.x (x86) with php5.3.x (x86) as modul. All database-query goes throgh one persistent database-link.
Best regards

With fcgid you can use persistent connection to the database, if the fcgi process lives long enough and is set to serve many requests.
I have no oracle, but with mysql_pconnect it worked for me.
Maybe you'll have to set PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN
I think the best idea is to setup the x64 apache listen on a different port and test it. |
