RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Frank Büttner 2018-05-11 10:10:45 UTC

Description of problem:
In the file /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/10-php.conf, the php module is only loaded on prefork mode of apache. This is ok, because mod_php will only work on this.

But at /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf this protection is missing.
So an apache which is not using prefork will not start, because the module options in this file are invalid. (mod php is not load) 



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
php-5.4.16-45.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
Using apache in worker mode


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install the php package
2. try to start the apache

Actual results:
Apache can't start


Expected results:
running apache

Additional info:
Remove the package will not work, because other package will install it as an dependency. Also when apache use php via fpm.
So I think the whole config in  /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf must enclosed with <IfModule prefork.c> </IfModule>

Comment 3 Joe Orton 2018-11-07 14:34:03 UTC

This is not a bug, it is an expected configuration error if php is installed but can't be loaded.  Silently serving .php files as plain text rather than interpreting them is not desired if the module was not loaded for some reason.
