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.
Regards,
Giles
