As mentioned in an email earlier this week, I have setup my first linux
server. But I am having an issue with using the correct php and fastcgi
versions.
I originally set up apache using mod-php5. But I also needed fastcgi to
enable some c++ apps I have built.
So I also setup fcgid, and all was working pretty well. I also got
phpmyadmin running on the site.
I then transferred a Drupal 6 site to the server, and discovered that
the php I had setup with mod-php5 (5.4) is not compatible with a Drupal
6 site. Drupal 6 requires PHP 5.2. So I followed instructions to build
php 5.2.17 using phpfarm, and set that up with
fastcgi and suexec.
The problem I am having is that the Drupal site now runs fine, as do my
fastcgi c++ apps, but phpmyadmin stopped working - presumably since it
does not support suexec.
But if I enable mod-php5, the php reverts to 5.4, phpmyadmin works but
my Drupal site no longer runs correctly.
Related, perhaps is that I also seem to now have both mod-fastcgi and
mod-fcgid enabled.
How could I change things so that php5.4 runs in one virtual host, yet
php5.2 runs in another?
And what is the difference between mod-fastcgi and mod-fcgid?
Will there be somone at the meeting Thursday that could check my .conf
files to help recommend what changes I could make?
Thanks in advance.
