Download from here.

When will apachehaus release for win64? ;)

That clone is old ... compare CHANGES-FCGID files.

https://github.com/xyntrix/mod_fcgid/blob/master/CHANGES-FCGID
vs
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/mod_fcgid/trunk/CHANGES-FCGID?view=co

I'll make a 2.3.7a with those changes and some testing this weekend.

Hope ASF's 2.3.8 should fix the mod_fcgid 2.3.7 bugs.

I rememeber there are some issues which causes apache not run well...

Gregg

The only issue with mod_fcgid and Apache that I can remember is the graceful restart/stop bug that was fixed in 2.3.7.

That said, it seems that this bug fix https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51194
may have been the one that broke the ability to use \\ in FcgidWrapper, per my comment at the bottom of that PR which is a regression. If you do not use any \\ in there and just the forward slash, then all will be fine. PR 51194 is an important fix as far as I'm concerned.

Also, Mario has a bug filed for the noisy forced kill error of the fcgid process. We know this is going to happen so he has included a patch to move this to LogLevel debug. I did not add this patch before compiling late last night so I'll do this and recompile/test after I finish a couple things that have jumped ahead on the TODO list today.

gl,thanks for your efforts.
It's will be great to see your compile of mod_fcgid 2.3.8.Though,mod_security 2.3.7 downloaded for apachehaus is so fine I used now. :)

Gregg

First, mod_fcgid 2.3.8 has not been released by the ASF, this must be understood. Because of that, these are mod_fcgid 2.3.7a yet include everything to this point in time that's in what will become 2.3.8. Note also the regression I spoke of above.

Due to the regression, these will not be on our download page but on my server here.

Have fun, hope they work well for you and anyone else reading this that downloads them. If your php is located in C:/Program Files, mod_fcgid should now have no problem with that any longer. You just cannot use backslashes in FCGIDWrapper.

Since ASF not release 2.3.8,I will try mod_fcgid2.3.7a for fun.
I find some changes at changelog.http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/mod_fcgid/trunk/CHANGES-FCGID?view=co

I don't know whether it's fine or not for apache 2.4.4 runs well. :)

chromerep

I find one error of fcgid disappeared after install the mod_fcgid2.3.7a.
It's the fcgid error before.([fcgid:warn] [pid 3904:tid 444] mod_fcgid: process 2948 graceful kill fail, sending SIGKILL) :D

Gregg

I wouldn't call that an error but a feature! :D I also mentioned I would add this and recompile.

If you really want to see that noise pollute your error log, change your LogLevel for mod_fcgid to debug

If you have now:
LogLevel warn

Change to:
LogLevel warn mod_fcgid:debug

see PR 54597 https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54597

Since linux handles the processes differently I'd like to know if a php-cgi process dies.
