The cgi-path option

[fiskWasTaken]

Is there a reason to have this? I do not think there should be a situation where the PHP installation used for the master and slave processes is disparate. This leads to confusion with missing extensions between versions, etc.

The PHP installation should be determined from the master process, instead of being passed in as an option. If someone wants to use a different PHP installation, they should start the manager with it.

If we do it that way then the ppm master should warn or error it its not run via cgi. I‘d prefer warning but I remember @marcj mentioned cgi being necessary for proper headers handling. Viele Grüße, Andreas

ping @marcj is the cgi option still relevant? Doesn't feel like it since we're handling all connection through reactphp?

The workers need to be run with PHP-CGI, there's no way around it and there will never be if you're using native PHP session, cookie, http header stuff. The master process however can be started with the regular PHP binary. The question is actually a different one as I understood. The master and worker should not run with different PHP binaries, but the master should be started always with the cgi binary, which is then used for all workers as well, which basically destroys the cgi option. I'm ok with that, and also would suggest to print a fat warning when the master process is started without the cgi binary.
