 |
|
I've successfully configured a development environment using mod_fcgid to run PHP. I define the scope with:
| Code: | <FilesMatch \.php$>
Options +ExecCGI
SetHandler fcgid-script
</FilesMatch> |
.. where fcgid-script is (I presume) a hard-coded handler provided by the module. To handle different PHP versions I keep a set of *.conf files and invoke the appropriate one inside every virtual host using Include. So far so good.
Some times I need to test a given feature in different versions within the same project. Since Include isn't .htaccess-friendly that implies restarting Apache. Trying to find an even more convenient way, I thought that perhaps I could feed SetHandler (which can be used in .htaccess) with a custom handler:
| Code: | | SetHandler php-5.3-script |
Docs say that "Handlers can either be built into the server or included in a module, or they can be added with the Action directive" but here's where I got lost because Actions needs a URL-path.
Is what I'm trying to do not possible? Am I overlooking an easier way? |

Hi,
what works is in *.config file
| Code: |
<Files ~ "\.php$">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
AddHandler fcgid-script .php
FcgidWrapper "C:/php7/php-cgi.exe" .php
</Files>
|
In .htaccess you can override the FcgidWrapper[1]
But you have to make sure not to set
| Code: |
FcgidInitialEnv PHPRC "C:\\php7"
|
since you can't override FcgidInitialEnv in a.htaccess file. I'm not sure PHP will pick the correct php.ini file. But it should. I haven't tried that since restating apache is easy.
If you still have a question please ask again.
