Apache update breaks php compatibility of owncloud

[hp4]

My archlinuxarm distribution on RaspberryPi recently updated to apache 2.4.

This implied that the php-module isn't running anymore since it is not multi-threaded.

The recommended workaround with php-fpm doesn't work for owncloud, which previously worked fine with apache 2.2.

Guidelines in the Archlinux wiki are still based on apache 2.2, so I'm not able to find any workaround.

This is new, and comes from upstream.

Why not use lighttpd or nginx instead. You will probably notice that everything runs faster too.

The solution with mod_proxy_fcgi and mod-fpm seems to have serious problems with providing a correct environment for php, e.g the bug

https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65641

seems to be still unresolved. Also you can find a lot of comments in the mod-fpm sources which point to apache-specific problems (for an example see below).

So I'm not sure whether it's really a good idea to include these packages in the archlinux distribution. At least the default configuration for normal LAMP-users should omit mod-fpm and provide other ways to support apache for php. Since I'm not an LAMP-expert I'm not sure whether returning to the single threaded model for apache 2.4 is really the better option than returning to apache 2.2.

in the mod-fpm sources I've found the comment with different to bug references.

#define APACHE_PROXY_FCGI_PREFIX "proxy:fcgi://"
/* Fix proxy URLs in SCRIPT_FILENAME generated by Apache mod_proxy_fcgi:
* proxy:fcgi://localhost:9000/some-dir/info.php/test?foo=bar
* should be changed to:
* /some-dir/info.php/test
* See: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54152

Take it up with Arch proper. This wasn't us.

apache 2.4 with php currently is not running out-of-the-box. You have to build a workaround package mod_proxy_handler till an apache correction will be available.
