Php 5.2

Hi all,

I need to make php 5.2 to work on my install.

I followed the steps mixing different tutorials and have a working version : I can call it via command line and it works OK.

Unfortunately, as soon as I configure ISPC3 to use it, I got only 500 internal server errors. Even trying to display a simple phpinfo() in a file leads to the error.

Wheezy 64 bits up to date.
Compiled with the following flags :

I'm sure about my parameters in ISPC3 :

/opt/php-5.2.17/bin/php-cgi
/opt/php-5.2.17/lib

The PHP version appears OK in the list for every website.

The only thing that appears in acces.log is :

X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.17
Content-type: text/html

... and nothing else.

I searched the forum about this problem, which seems pretty common, but no solution worked for me yet.

 

configure: error: Cannot find imap library (libc-client.a). Please check your c-client installation.

*** EDIT ***

Found a trick on this page : http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-us...-fastcgi-with-ispconfig-3-ubuntu-12.04-lts-p3 which worked OK.

Compilation successfull with :

Notice: Following unknown configure options were used:

--with-fpm-user=www-data
--with-fpm-group=www-data


Compiling anyway.

 

Later on, had the problem solved by this https://bugs.php.net/patch-display....SSLv2_for_openssl_1_0_0.patch&revision=latest

Compiled and installed OK. Updated paths and verified them. Checked in console the ini file is loaded OK.

Result after apache restart and page reload : exact same problem.

Solved the python mismatch problem but still no luck.

I keep finding fastcgi threads on google, and it seems every one is using suexec stuff.

Should I make something about this ?

 

It was already enabled, but I didn't notice before. Still no luck ...

 

I'm sure it's Apache related, as all command line tests are good.

For example :

cat info.php | /var/www/php-fcgi-scripts/web19/.php-fcgi-starter

... correctly outputs the phpinfo() page.

 

Raised the loglevel in Apache. After calling the same test page :

tail /var/log/apache2/error.log

[Sun Sep 14 19:14:07 2014] [info] mod_fcgid: server filoeuvre.com:/var/www/php-fcgi-scripts/web19/.php-fcgi-starter(9398) started

[Sun Sep 14 19:14:13 2014] [info] mod_fcgid: process /var/www/php-fcgi-scripts/web19/.php-fcgi-starter(9398) exit(communication error), terminated by calling exit(), return code: 0

 

For the sake of testing, I compiled PHP 5.3.29 from here : http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-us...pm-and-fastcgi-with-ispconfig-3-debian-wheezy

Everything went well, but as soon as I activate it for a site, I got the same 500 error, even on a simple phpinfo() page.

I guess something is messup up with my install (perhaps linked to the upgrade script) ?

 

Please try this configure statement (used tills one with two added options):

Code:

./configure \
--prefix=/opt/phpfcgi-5.2.17 \
--with-pdo-pgsql \
--with-zlib-dir \
--with-freetype-dir \
--enable-mbstring \
--with-libxml-dir=/usr \
--enable-soap \
--enable-calendar \
--with-curl \
--with-mcrypt \
--with-zlib \
--with-gd \
--with-pgsql \
--disable-rpath \
--enable-inline-optimization \
--with-bz2 \
--with-zlib \
--enable-sockets \
--enable-sysvsem \
--enable-sysvshm \
--enable-pcntl \
--enable-mbregex \
--with-mhash \
--enable-zip \
--with-pcre-regex \
--with-mysql \
--with-pdo-mysql \
--with-mysqli \
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr \
--with-png-dir=/usr \
--enable-gd-native-ttf \
--with-openssl \
--with-fpm-user=www-data \
--with-fpm-group=www-data \
--with-libdir=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu \
--enable-ftp \
--with-imap \
--with-imap-ssl \
--with-kerberos \
--with-gettext \
--enable-cgi \
--enable-force-cgi-redirect \
--enable-fastcgi

 

Trying this.

make clean && make && make install is ok ? It will overwrite the former version ?

 

Yes, but first make clean, THEN configure, THEN make and make install.

 

You're the man ! I could display my info page, and make my venerable Drupal 5 sites run without complaining.

It's --with-config-file-path that did the trick right ?

May I apply the same flags to the 5.3 FPM version ?

 

No, it was the --enable-fastcgi and --enable-force-cgi-redirect
Those are not suitable for fpm. You have to use --enable-fpm instead.
The howto you mentioned above should work for fpm.

 

Well, fact is it didn't, so I suspect it's also a compilation flag problem.

 

Are you sure that you didn't mix fpm and fastcgi?

 

Don't think so : ran the compilation in another directory, corrected the paths to match latest version.

Here is the command :

./configure \
--prefix=/opt/php-5.3.29 \
--with-pdo-pgsql \
--with-zlib-dir \
--with-freetype-dir \
--enable-mbstring \
--with-libxml-dir=/usr \
--enable-soap \
--enable-calendar \
--with-curl \
--with-mcrypt \
--with-zlib \
--with-gd \
--with-pgsql \
--disable-rpath \
--enable-inline-optimization \
--with-bz2 \
--with-zlib \
--enable-sockets \
--enable-sysvsem \
--enable-sysvshm \
--enable-pcntl \
--enable-mbregex \
--enable-exif \
--enable-bcmath \
--with-mhash \
--enable-zip \
--with-pcre-regex \
--with-mysql \
--with-pdo-mysql \
--with-mysqli \
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr \
--with-png-dir=/usr \
--enable-gd-native-ttf \
--with-openssl \
--with-fpm-user=www-data \
--with-fpm-group=www-data \
--with-libdir=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu \
--enable-ftp \
--with-imap \
--with-imap-ssl \
--with-kerberos \
--with-gettext \
--with-xmlrpc \
--with-xsl \
--enable-fpm

 

Anyway this problem can wait. I have another one related to DNS (www not propagating) : should I open a new thread or continue with this one ?
