Description

This is a dummy module for Apache which reads and ignores directives php_value, php_flag, php_admin_value, php_admin_flag and PHPINIDir inside .htaccess so no error is generated when mod_php is not enabled.

Explanation

When you use PHP in Apache through CGI interface (FastCGI/PHP-FPM/fcgid/...) you can often walk into 500 error and message similar to the following one flushed into error log:

Invalid command 'php_value', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

This is usually caused by directives already mentioned in description, which work only with PHP module loaded directly into Apache process (mod_php).

This module takes care of those directives - directives are read and ignored. In other words - having php_value inside .htaccess will not generate any error nor do the thing it was supposed to (you can use .user.ini to solve the latter).

Installation

1. Download and extract module into Apache folder modules
2. Add following line into httpd.conf:

LoadModule phpdummy_module modules/mod_phpdummy.so
