Description:
------------
When using mod_fcgid with php-cgi to handle scripts, intermittently, php-cgi.exe will start, but the script will not seem to load (no error_log() statements are logged, no output is sent, cpu usage is 0%) and after the fcgid timeouts, apache reports mod_fcgid: read timeout from pipe. 

This behavior is intermittent but seems to be related to new instances of php-cgi.

Apache: Apache Lounge 2.4.18 Win32 x86
Mod_fcgid: Apache Lounge mod_fcgid 2.3.9 Win32 x86
PHP: Windows.php.net PHP 7.0.3 php-cgi.exe



Expected result:
----------------
php runs a .php script

Actual result:
--------------
no content is returned, fcgid script timeout is reached, apache reports read timeout, serves 500 error. 

Happens more frequently if FcgidMaxRequestsPerProcess is set to 1. FcgidConnectTimeout values seem to have no effect. It appears that mod_fcgid never "hooks up" to the php-cgi process.

Also, thread-safe vs non-thread safe makes no difference. This error has occurred in every version of 7.0 since RC2. It does not occur, using the same configs, with PHP 5.6.5.

This also occurs using the Win32/x64 builds of Apache, mod_fcgid and php of the same point releases.

Please pastebin your Apache and PHP configs somewhere. If no one came to it, i'm going to check when having a time frame. Will be useful otherwise anyway.

Thanks.

Here's a gist of the config files and a sample index.php to show the error:

If comments aren't feedback, then what am I doing wrong. So, again:

Here's a gist of the config files and a sample index.php to show the error:

It's alright @ian, we got it. The "no feedback" thing was done by a bot that looks at the ticket status, not whether someone made a reply.

@ian thanks for the additional information. I've just fetched the latest builds from apachelounge.com and setup mod_fcgid using your configs. Currently I see no issue, neither with the script you've supplied nor with anything else. It seems to function correctly. From this i have a conclusion, that you have some configuration issue. By checking the config files, i see nothing extraordinary bad in them (not counting small things like soap.wsdl_cache_dir="/tmp").

Still, you should recheck your paths, that the dirs are writable, that there are no php installations preceeding the %path%, no other servers share the same port, other ini settings, etc. I'm closing this for now, feel free to reopen if you have a stable reproducer.

Thanks.
