Multi-stage Docker to speed up code deploy

Of course. Using a multi-stage Docker build is a fantastic way to optimize your Laravel application's build time in a CI/CD pipeline. The strategy is to separate the installation of dependencies (which don't change often) from your application code (which changes frequently). Here is a complete, production-ready example using a multi-stage Dockerfile for your Laravel application. This setup assumes you are using Vite for your frontend assets, which is the default in recent Laravel versions. ### The Multi-Stage Dockerfile Create a file named Dockerfile in the root of your Laravel project with the following content: # --- Stage 1: PHP Dependencies (Composer) --- # This stage installs composer dependencies. It's only rebuilt when # composer.json or composer.lock changes. FROM composer:2.5 as vendor WORKDIR /app COPY database/ database/ COPY composer.json composer.lock ./ # Install dependencies for production RUN composer install --no-interaction --no-dev --no-scripts --prefer-...

[Solved] Apache 2.4.62 - AH00534: httpd: Configuration error: More than one MPM loaded.

 If you are building Apache/httpd from source (in my case it is httpd 2.4.62) and you encounter this error: AH00534: httpd: Configuration error: More than one MPM loaded. But you are absolutely sure that in your config file you just enable 1 module, here is what you need to check: In my case, my command of building Apache from source is this: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/httpd-2.4.62 \ --enable-proxy \ --enable-proxy-http \ --enable-proxy-ajp \ --enable-forward \ --enable-module=most \ --enable-mods-shared=all \ --enable-so \ --enable-include \ --enable-headers \ --enable-deflate \ --enable-cache \ --enable-disk-cache \ --enable-mem-cache \ --enable-rewrite \ --enable-static-support \ --enable-expires \ --with-apr-util=/usr/local/apr \ --with-apr=/usr/local/apr Important: If you run httpd -M, you will see that mpm-event is "static", which means it is compiled as "static" module, i.e. pre-build and loaded by default. But if you add: --enable-mpms-shared \ --with-m...
