PHP Crash WinCache IIS 7.5

Question

• PHP 5.6
• IIS 7.5
• WINCACHE 1.3.6.3

Sometimes one website on my server crash and in event viewer I see that error:

Faulting application name: php-cgi.exe, version: 5.6.0.0, time stamp: 0x53fe294e
Faulting module name: php_wincache.dll, version: 1.3.6.3, time stamp: 0x544ad12f
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x00012fe7
Faulting process id: 0x1460
Faulting application start time: 0x01d048896ff45425
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\v5.6\php-cgi.exe
Faulting module path: C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\v5.6\ext\php_wincache.dll
Report Id: a2371547-b488-11e4-ad72-00155d324103

I won't disable wincache, it's very helpful, I'd like to decode that Fault offset, how can I do that?

Running wincache on IIS is just troublesome, I've never had any luck of getting it to work without some sort of issue/crash. I suggest you update to PHP 7 for a few reasons.

• PHP 7 is officially supported for windows 64bit
• You don't need wincache with PHP 7
• PHP 5.6 is only supported with security fixes
• End of life is 1 Jan 2019 (Currently Supported Versions)
