⁠PHP 5.6 All-In-One (Apache + MySQL + Memcached)

A single-container Docker image that bundles PHP 5.6, Apache, MySQL, and Memcached into a unified environment.

This image is designed for running legacy PHP applications that depend on older stacks, without requiring complex multi-container setups or installing outdated software on your host system.

⁠What This Image Provides

• PHP 5.6 with common extensions (mysqli, PDO, mbstring, soap, gettext)
• Apache web server
• MySQL server (with persistent storage support)
• Memcached with PHP extension
• Supervisor to manage all services in one container

⁠Use Cases

• Running legacy PHP 5.6 applications
• Maintaining older projects that depend on deprecated stacks
• Quick setup for debugging or testing old codebases
• Migration workflows where upgrading PHP is not immediately possible
