Howto ISPCP Omega with eaccelerator

Installation

Make sure are logged in as root.
1. Fetch eaccelerator from eacclerator.net

wget http://bart.eaccelerator.net/source/0.9.....1.tar.bz2

2. Untar or unzip the distribution files to secure directory:

# cd /root
# tar -xjvf eaccelerator-0.9.5.1.tar.bz2

3. Change to the newly create directory:
# cd eaccelerator-0.9.5.1

4. Install the required module
# apt-get install php4-dev

5. Compile eAccelerator

# export PHP_PREFIX="/usr"

You must specify the real prefix where PHP is installed in the "export"
command. It may be "/usr" "/usr/local", or something else.

# $PHP_PREFIX/bin/phpize

# ./configure --enable-eaccelerator=shared --with-php-config=$PHP_PREFIX/bin/php-config

# make && make install

After that you should see somethink like that:
Installing shared extensions: /usr/lib/php4/20050606+lfs/

6. Now its time to add eaccelearotor into our master php.ini file:

edit /var/www/fcgi/master/php4/php.ini file and add this lines:

extension="eaccelerator.so"
eaccelerator.shm_size="16"
eaccelerator.cache_dir="/tmp/eaccelerator"
eaccelerator.enable="1"
eaccelerator.optimizer="1"
eaccelerator.check_mtime="1"
eaccelerator.debug="0"
eaccelerator.filter=""
eaccelerator.shm_max="0"
eaccelerator.shm_ttl="0"
eaccelerator.shm_prune_period="0"
eaccelerator.shm_only="0"
eaccelerator.compress="1"
eaccelerator.compress_level="9"

7. Create proper temp directory for eaccelerator
# mkdir /tmp/eaccelerator
# chmod 0777 /tmp/eaccelerator

8. Restart Apache and see the results:

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Not really... eaccelerator should NOT be used with anything but mod_php otherwise some problems may occur, check the docs

https://www.eaccelerator.net/wiki/Faq?action=history
Last time I saw the FAQ that info wasn't available

But I don't wanna imagine what using a shared eaccelerator.cache_dir could cause...

That's the reason why I put the cache_dir to /var/www/virtual/my-domain.tld/phptmp

I just did "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade"

There are new updates for php5 so I accepted the upgrade. However this broke ispcp admin and all php pages. Looking at the apache error logs it states:

As stated on the How To, you need to *rebuild* eaccelerator. However, don't forget to remove all previous eaccelerator files before you carry out the rebuild.

I think the guide here needs to be more explicit about it:
http://www.isp-control.net/ispcp/wiki/ho...ccelerator

Also, does anybody know how we can enable the control.php file provided with eAccelerator? It would be nice to have it as an optional step.
