apache deployment

[jahlxx]

Hi.

 

I've a test environment, with windows 7 32 bits and apache 2.2, to run isapi module, and it's ok.

 

I want to have my production environment in a windows server 64 bits. Does anyone know an apache setup for windows 64 bits? I can't find it.

 

Thanks.

.. i use the 32 bit apache on 64 bit systems ....  i allso use "just" a delphi 32bit - and a uniGui-dll with 32 bit ... firebird 2.5 / 32 bit

Hi.

 

But with apache 32 in a windows 64, you loose performance, isn't it?

 

You don't use resources of the server.

[erich.wanker]

you loose not realy performance ..

its a question of memory .. but i think - its not realy a problem..

Ok.

 

I understand what you say, but I'd like to test all the possibilities before installin apache 32 bits in windows 64 bits.

 

I'm trying to install apache 2.2 in win64, downloaded from https://www.apachelounge.com/download/win64/

 

The server responds ok.

 

When I try to run isapi dll, the app doesn'l load and the apache log file contains the error that is not a valis win32 application and ISAPI: failed to load C:/webapps/test.dll

 

I've done the same confoguration that in apache 32 in windows 32.

 

Any idea?

 

Thanks.

what is the compiled uni-gui -dll : 32 or 64 bit  ?

 

does your app  writing in the registry or uses some 32 bit resources??

 

not apache - but IIS stuff: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7771202/isapi-filter-not-working-on-windows-2008-r2-64-bit

I think dll is 32.

 

the app doesn't write in registry

[erich.wanker]

i think, it gives no sense to mix the system ..

 

if you want to use a 64bit apache - you should use a 64bit UniGui-dll

 

To create a 64 Bit UniGui-dll - your developer machine must have a 64bit Windows and a 64bit Delphi ..

 

My Developer System:i use a 32bit OS with 32bit Delphi and a 32bit Apache

 ... and use my compiled 32bit uniGui-DLL with apache 32bit on a customer Winserver 2008 64 bit..

 

What are your developer machne OS (32/64bit) ?

What is your Delphi  (32/64bit) ?

[jahlxx]

my developer machine is 64 bits

 

my delphi is both 32 and 64 bits

[jahlxx]

my only worry is not use all the machine resources and loose performance in the production environment.

 

if I'm sure that everything will be ok, then I don't matter install apache 32 in a 64 bits machine.
