Another challenge came. One of our application finally updated. The application development use php 5.3 + and already pass with php 5.5+ version. Time for migration schedule and the requirement is obvious : the machine able to run 2 different php (php 5.2.17 is a must and other php version is at least 5.3+). The machine I use is Ubuntu 12.04 32 bit ( I prefer to use old supported version due to lower memory consumption than 14.04).
Quick google give me reference to phpfarm and other resources. As I said in previous post, php 5.2.17 successfully installed after applied a patch (installed on Ubuntu 14.04). For reference purpose I share my experience here. Target php extensions are standard like support for mysql, pdo and gd extension.
Note : if you want to to try / apply it using vps then You’ll need memory minimal 1GB. My box show this memory utilization (32 bit). Click here for hourly cheap vps.

Disable php5 module (optional)
In case you already install php5 as apache module you must disable it first.
#a2dismod php5

A few notes around custom options :
– enable-fastcgi will give fcgi version. Without the line will give cgi version.
