I had this issue on Windows.
I fixed it after reading two threads on stackoverflow.
My current Caddyfile is:
:2015 {
root C:\sites\1
on startup php_cgi.bat &
fastcgi / 127.0.0.1:6545 php
}
php_cgi.bat:
:start
SET PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS=0
C:\php\php-cgi.exe -b 6545
Another option if you’re worried on memory leaks in php_cgi.bat:
:start
C:\php\php-cgi.exe -b 6545
goto start
Other suggestions in these stackoverflow issues may work too, but this works for me on Windows 7 x64.
Though I would share it in case someone finds it helpful.
@ITSecMedia and @pwhodges you may find it helpful.
@matt I suggest adding a note on it in the docs. Maybe here:
