We are using MGOS 1.2 with apache server, and we would like to enable the php_oci8.dll extension but cannot because every time we start apache with it enabled, each instance of php-cgi.exe throws an unhandled exception. Through testing, it looks to be caused by running in fastcgi mode.

Under a fresh install of apache 2.2.x, the extension is usable and causes no problems. Under a fresh install of apache 2.0.55(version used in MG 1.2), the extension is usable as long as the fastcgi_module isn't loaded.

Using the httpd.conf file from Mapguide installation directories, we tried commenting out modules to see which ones we absolutely needed to run apache and see which php extensions are loaded, and every time apache loaded, exceptions were thrown. Once we commented 'LoadModule fastcgi_module modules/mod_fastcgi-AP2.so' and then the corresponding configuration for fastcgi, we were able to run apache in cgi mode and load the oci8 extension.

Has anyone tried running this oci8 extension while in fastcgi mode and been successful? Is it something that can be corrected within the configuration files?

Thanks for any assistance

P.S. This is on a Windows XP SP2 box and we hadn't upgraded to MGOS 2.x yet because there were some outstanding issues that prevented us from moving our production sites forward.
