If you want a fast installation of the php apc bytecache/optimizer for PHP5/Apache2, try the following snippet when already running a standard PHP5/Apache2 environment:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 | # install dependencies for compilation $ sudo aptitude install apache2-dev php5-dev build-essential # get current version of apc - check if there is a newer one! $ wget http://pecl.php.net/get/APC-3.0.16.tgz $ tar xzf APC-3.0.16.tgz $ cd APC-3.0.16 $ phpize $ ./configure --enable-apc --enable-apc-mmap \ --with-apxs=/usr/bin/apxs2 \ --with-php-config=/usr/bin/php-config $ make $ sudo make install # in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini add: extension=apc.so $ sudo apache2ctl restart |
No a phpinfo(); should show you a new apc section.
i usually just do
$ pecl install apc
