GetMagickThreadSupport problem with mod_perl

[AliceWonder]

This thread is from 2008. I found this thread via google.

It is now 2016 and this problem still exists, and it is not acceptable.

The problem is that without using MPM Worker, you can not use the PHP facilities for upload progress.

When uploading a file, the Ajax requests to get status on the upload will fail with MPM prefork because the requests won't be answered by the server until after the upload is finished. Using MPM worker is a must for upload progress that does not depend upon flash or java.

Apache 2.4.23 w/ php 5.6.23 as apache module
ImageMagick 6.9.3.10
PHP PECL ImageMagick 3.4.2

I will try with ImageMagick 7 series and see if it still exists there. I need ImageMagick for the WebP support (I serve images as WebP to clients that report they support it)

Problem persists with ImageMagick 7.0.2-4 and php-pecl-imagick 3.4.3RC1

Hi - this was my error.
I wasn't building the zts version of the php module.

It works as it should.
