You can also try using getmypid() instead.
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7)
posix_getpid — 返回当前进程 id
Return the process identifier of the current process. 返回当前进程的 id
返回进程 id 号,是整型(integer)。
Example #1 posix_getpid() 的使用例子
<?php
echo posix_getpid(); //8805
?>
You can also try using getmypid() instead.
In order to use posix_getpid on Fedeora 11 and up you have to install php-process
# yum install php-process
Since upgrading fedora 10 to 12, I discovered that posix_getpid() disappeared and not compiled in by default, as it specifies here.
It turns out that it had been moved into package php-process.
Just do "yum install php-process", and all should be sweet again.
Hope this saves someone half an hour of research.
