APC is a free, open, and robust framework for caching and optimizing PHP intermediate code. Here are the most simple steps :

# Login to the server as root

# Download APC

wget http://pecl.php.net/package/APC

eg : wget http://pecl.php.net/get/APC-3.0.15.tgz
# Extract it and move into the directory

Code: Select all

tar -xzf APC-3.0.15.tgz

cd APC*
# Locate where php is

Code: Select all

which php

This should return something like: /usr/local/bin/php Remember the location of php.

# Create configuration files

Code: Select all

phpize
# Compile APC

Code: Select all

./configure --enable-apc --enable-apc-mmap --with-apxs --with-php-config=/usr/local/bin/php-config
make
make install
# Install APC into php.ini

You will have to first locate php.ini using the following command

Code: Select all

php -i | grep php.ini

This will usually return /usr/local/Zend/etc/php.ini on a server that has Zend optimizer installed. Now edit php.ini and add the APC extension.

Code: Select all

vi /usr/local/Zend/etc/php.ini

Scroll down to the bottom and add the fallowing before the lines about the zend optimizer (They start with [Zend])

Code: Select all

extension=”/apc_location/apc.so”
# Restart Apache

Code: Select all

service httpd restart
