Apache2Triad Help, Support and Development

[razor7]

Hello php 4.4.2 has a severe bug ( http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=36017 ) that iterrupts the execution of any fopen, fclose, fread,
file_get_contents etc with a remote file. And since apache2triad 1.4.4 comes with that version of PHP i guess:

How can I upgrade PHP to the last 4.4.x dev package? (the one that can be downloaded from php.net)


Thanks

Pathways are different in the 4.x series than the 5.x but if you modify the paths in my php update batch script then it should work just fine for you.

*removed batch codecode

I'd do this myself but I only run the edge version. (I choose to develop and use scripts for the 5.x branch) This script stops apache copies the new files over the old php files and then runs services.msc

Thanks a lot for your help.

I have installed apache2triad 1.4.4 that ships php 4.4.2, because of this I need to update.

¿Does the above instrucions fit for this version?

Thanks

by changing the appropriate php pathways, and the correct files for your .so files it should work just fine.

If modifying batch scripts isn't something you can do or are comfortable with, then if you'll give me a folder layout for php4, I can modify the script and repost it for you to test.

[razor7]

I will realyy appreciate the modified version to fit php 4.4.x

Thanks.

EDIT:
Please send me the modified batch file so I can upgrade to PHP 4.4.x and override that anoying problem


Thanks.

is this the file structure for the 1.4.x php folder? What is the
LoadModule line in your httpd.conf file for php?

[razor7]

php4ts.dll is located here "C:\apache2triad\bin"

and PHP config is this LoadModule php4_module modules/mod_php.so

I also have attached the conf file

Any help?

Thanks.

PS: How can i query php to tell me the current runing version?

[Joshua Meadows (DemoRic)]

http://localhost/apache2triadcp/info.php is the easiest way to find the version.
Yeah the info helps, I'll see about d/l the latest dev version and make that into a pack in a few days

[razor7]

you mean that you will publish a new apache2triad installation without the bugous PHP 4.4.2?
