Question

Has anybody successfully installed APC on php 5.4? According to another thread I found on StackOverflow, seems possible using the latest trunk.

I grabbed trunk, phpize, ./configure, but when I try and run make I get the following errors:

>/bin/sh /root/trunk/libtool --mode=compile cc  -I. -I/root/trunk -DPHP_ATOM_INC -I/root/trunk/include -I/root/trunk/main -I/root/trunk -I/usr/include/php -I/usr/include/php/main -I/usr/include/php/TSRM -I/usr/include/php/Zend -I/usr/include/php/ext -I/usr/include/php/ext/date/lib  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H  -g -O2   -c /root/trunk/apc.c -o apc.lo

You need to have the development headers for PCRE installed.

If you’re on Centos or Fedora (or REPL or …) you can get them with an:

• yum install pcre-devel

If you’re on Debian or Ubuntu, you can get them with an:

• apt-get install libpcre3-dev
