Description:
------------
 We still see the following warning on php.net in the installation section of the online documentation:  "Do not use Apache 2.0 and PHP in a production environment neither on Unix nor on Windows. ".  My question:  Is this warning still in effect for all releases of PHP???  Is warning the documentation still appropriate in our situation-- specifically PHP 4.3.4 on UNIX/Solaris 8 with Apache 1.3.27. We are considering migrating to Apache 2.0 on Solaris 8.  THANK YOU.

Apache 2 is still too new. And the SAPI modules we have for it have proven to be quite buggy too..

And you don't get pretty much anything extra out of Apache2 compared to Apache1.3 anyway. Enabling Apache2 with threaded MPM, like worker, makes it really unstable due to 3rd party stuff being non-thread-safe.

Ask again next year. :)

Yes, Apache 2 was only released 4 years ago (stable-2 years ago).  It is far too new to even think about supporting it.

The general procedure is to release a major build and ask questions later.

Submit again before PHP 6 goes into beta testing.
