Apache with VC17 is not supported for fast CGI - fcgid.conf updated incorrectly

[Sophist-UK]

Apache versions are now compiled with VS17, and Laragon automatically sets the 1st line of fcgid.conf to
LoadModule fcgid_module "D:/Laragon/etc/apache2/modules/mod_fcgid-2.3.9-Win64-vs17.so"
however this file does not exist.

Laragon needs to check for the latest FCGID and VS versions for which there is a mod_fcgid-*-win64-vs*.so file and use that.

In this case it should be LoadModule fcgid_module "D:/Laragon/etc/apache2/modules/mod_fcgid-2.3.10-win64-VS16.so".

Note: A workaround is to edit the file manually and then set the read-only property.

Hi,

If I remember, this issue could be related to your current PHP being [TS] (thread safe) or not...

[Sophist-UK]

It is indeed indirectly related to that. I have installed a non-thread-safe version of PHP so that I can use it with nginx. And Laragon has correctly detected that and has "included" fcgid.conf as a direct consequence - but has created a version of fcgid.conf that points to a non-existent module file (which is a bug).

Ah, ok. Got your point.

I have added something to the Wiki to give the workaround.
