PHP5 module makes Apache 1.3 segfault

I am trying to get PHP4 and 5 to work with Apache 1.3. PHP4 is compiled as a module and currently works fine, although Apache does display the following warning upon starting:

Loaded DSO libphp4.so uses plain Apache 1.3 API, this module might crash under EAPI! (please recompile it with -DEAPI)

So I compiled PHP5 using the latest source. I get the same warning, twice now for each PHP module, but then Apache gets a segmentation fault when loading the PHP4 + PHP5 modules.

I have tried compiling PHP5 with apxs and without. It does appear to be using the -DEAPI flag. Maybe this isn’t related to the segfault. The flags I am using to configure PHP5:

./configure --with-mysql --with-zlib --disable-cgi --with-apxs=/www/bin/apxs

Answer

You can’t load both modules at the same time because they export the same symbols. This inevitably leads to crashes. You have to use (F)CGI for one of them.
