Hi all, We're implementing some new stuff for our website in Django; unfortunately our site currently uses PHP quite heavily (for MediaWiki, Wordpress, phpBB and the like), and when we tried deploying the first cut of the solution, Apache segfaulted - best guess is that this is a result of PHP's problems with a statically linked version of the mysql library, which are known to interact badly with mod_python and mysql [1]
Unfortunately, although the problem is with PHP, I have to work around it in order to get my Django app working, at least until I can budget the time to remove PHP from the site entirely :-) I guess quite a lot of people out there have had similar problems, so I was wondering what the most popular workaround is? Here are the options I've found or been told about so far: * Use mod_wsgi so that all of the Django stuff is kept in a separate process. (A bit ugly.) * Run a separate server (Apache, lighthttpd, or whatever) just for Django. (Even uglier.) * Recompile PHP with the appropriate flags to make it use a shared mysql library. (Scary!) Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
