php5apache2_4.dll from
php 5.6 folder and did the other things in the

says it can't find the
php5apache2_4.dll file.
I've seen several posts about this error
message, but they all reference
different versions. And I know the dll is good
since it works fine on
php 5.6.
My question is... is Win64 Apache 2.4 and php
5.2 a valid combination?
I don't want to continue beating my head against
the wall only to find
out that this combination is simply not
possible. If it is valid, then
I'll continue debug. If not, I'm in a mess...
but it's not a
configuration issue...
You can never combine 32 bit loadable modules
in a 64 bit Apache
httpd process. That means x64 is going to
require mod_php 64 bit
built against the 64 bit httpd 2.4 and 64 bit
php 5.2, in your example.
The sysinternals tool depends.exe for 64 bit
can quickly show you
missing dependencies, and whether the loaded
exe/dll/so file was
64 or 32 bits.
Thanks for the quick response, William.
It appears that the answer to my question is
that there is NOT an x64 php 5.2. It is only 32
bit. (64-bit started with 5.3). I found a link on
ApacheLounge to a personally-built x64 php 5.2.
But the link is dead. Does anybody else have a
private-built x64 php 5.2?
Alternative, has anybody had any experience with running
both a 32-bit Apache and 64-bit WAMP on the same box? Or
is that even possible? I know I'd need to have one on
different ports, but I could redirect certain urls to
the other port. Is this a horrible idea?
It's actually not a horrible idea. The PHP
project strongly encourages admins to host their content using
the PHP fcgi sapi. Route to a pool of 5.2 hosts (32 bit, this
is out of process) using either mod_proxy_fcgi or mod_fcgid.
Do the same to a pool of 5.6 hosts for modern apps. These are
all distinct processes and httpd is just moving the traffic,
not generating the dynamic content.
Thanks again. Making progress. I got everything configured and
'working' as far as Apache is concerned with mod_fcgid. Apache
appears happy. And I don't see any php errors. But I simply get
a blank page and a 500 response code from php pages. I can
usually debug anything if I can just find a log error to look at.
But I cannot find any error messages anywhere. I may have
overlooked it, but I can't find anyway to turn on fcgi logging.
There's nothing in the main apache log, or the virtual host logs,
or anywhere else I normally look for logs.
BTW.... I did remove the content for index.php and just replace
it with a single text string. It did come up. But as soon as I
put any php syntax in there, 500 RC. I figure this is just a dump
config error. But I need a fighting chance. Where can I look for
error messages? I'm not a PHP guru. So please don't assume I
know anything 'obvious' about debugging php....
My http.conf section is below:
Thx again.
