I did not put a lot of thought into it, luckily I have never had to seriously fiddle with it. I would probably have one goal, get two copies of Apache running on different ports, one would server old php, and one would serve new php. I think you could then take either of those Apaches, and run that on port 80 as a proxy to the other two different ports, and it would be near transparent. Your logs would look a little funny, but there are ways to solve that as well. Like I said, it is something I would try to avoid, as it just sounds messy and impossible to debug. One other option would be to virtualize one of them in a VM. Hmpf, actually, if you can get away with it as a fastcgi, then it is almost trivial to get working: http://cuadradevelopment.com/blog/26/multiple-php-versions-with-apache-using-fastcgi-on-os-x/ -- Scott * If you contact me off list replace talklists@ with scott@ * _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
