I have a web application and is running fine with PHP 5.5.5 on a production environment.
On the same server now I need to run some PHP scripts that make use of php pthread (v. 2.0.10)
Is it safe to rebuild php with --enable-maintainer-zts
(to allow use of pthreads) and use the same executable both for the web application and the CLI scripts that use php-pthread ?
Or should I make two builds of PHP: php
, php-zts
and use the former for the web app and the latter for the CLI scripts ?
As --enable-maintainer-zts
is not enabled by default I assume it have some drawbacks or worse (as I have read here https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/985) may introduce misbehaviours (bugs).
The web stack is nginx + php-fpm + mySql on Mac OS X 10.9.5.
I want it to be clear: phtread will not be used by the web application scripts. Only by the CLI scripts.
