Php & mod_perl = seg faults?

RT Users
1

Hi,

My RT2 install is working fine now.

However, I’ve been trying to add PHP into my apache install, but when I
do it segfaults.

Is this a mod_perl / PHP incompatibility thing?

with “LoadModule php4_module libexec/libphp4.so”

error_log:

I suspect that it is, and to avoid pain would suggest that you run your RT
apache on a seperate port, and mod_proxy to present a seamless interface
to RT on your main Apache. Or use mod_php + fastcgi.

Thanks Bruce,

Running RT on a separate port & apache conf did the trick.

Now I’m off to http://fsck.com/rtfm/ to work out how to use it.

Changes are that it’s more a mod_perl thing, than a mod_perl/PHP thing.
mod_perl makes Apache segfault like crazy if you run it as a DSO, I
believe.

Nonetheless, a good mantra might be, “when in doubt, run RT on a
separate port.” :slight_smile: Using mod_proxy works, but it is more resource
intensive than setting a simple Redirect in httpd.conf.
