- Add warning: mod_php should not be used for new installations; recommend PHP-FPM with mod_proxy_fcgi for all modern deployments
- Remove all Apache 2.2 references (EOL since 2017)
- Remove PHP 7 LoadModule example (EOL)
- Correct MPM guidance: event is the default since 2.4, prefork is only needed for mod_php without ZTS
- Note that major distributions already default to PHP-FPM
- Use correct project name (Apache httpd) throughout

FWIW, I used to be a php docs committer. I might still be. But it's been ... well, a long time, since I did any thing here, so likely the record has been purged. I've been meaning to do this for a very long time. |
