How can PHP handle errors like a Segmentation fault (11) without crashing Apache?

When PHP encounters a Segmentation fault (11), it typically crashes Apache due to a critical error in the code or server environment. To handle this error without crashing Apache, you can use a combination of error handling techniques like try-catch blocks and logging the error to a file or database. By catching the error and gracefully handling it, you can prevent Apache from crashing and provide a better user experience. 

try {
    // Your PHP code that may cause a Segmentation fault (11)
} catch (Exception $e) {
    // Log the error to a file or database
    error_log($e->getMessage(), 3, "error.log");
    // Handle the error gracefully
    echo "An error occurred, please try again later.";
}
