1. Currently in Freebsd with php5, apache22 and xdebug2,
   xcache could not work with this combination.
   Could you figure out to use xcache with above ones?
   Thanks

2. IT only works with the following PHP cvs branches versions (php 5.0 is not supported, get php 5.2)
   PHP_4_3
   PHP_4_4
   PHP_5_1
   PHP_5_2
   PHP HEAD(6.x)

3. For me this didn’t work untill I enabled two settings in php.ini file

   ; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside.
   extension_dir = “/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/”

   ; Dynamic Extensions

   extension=xcache.so

4. phpize isn’t found on my CentOS4 server.

   is there an alternate command?

5. Ken,

   Install php-devel package – which lets you compile dynamic extensions to PHP. This package has phpize command. Use yum command to install the same.

   1. can you pls write exactly what command i have to give ?
      thank you very much

      1. i gave command phpize => ” command not found”
         i gave command ” whereis phpize ” => and display => ” phpize: ”
         I gave command
         yum -y install php-devel
         but display that error

         Finished Dependency Resolution
         php-devel-5.1.6-39.el5_8.x86_64 from updates has depsolving problems
         –> Missing Dependency: php = 5.1.6-39.el5_8 is needed by package php-devel-5.1.6-39.el5_8.x86_64 (updates)
         Error: Missing Dependency: php = 5.1.6-39.el5_8 is needed by package php-devel-5.1.6-39.el5_8.x86_64 (updates)
         You could try using –skip-broken to work around the problem
         You could try running: package-cleanup –problems
         package-cleanup –dupes
         rpm -Va –nofiles –nodigest

         any ideas how to fix this ?
         thank you

         1. Is there any solution on that problem , without downgrade php :)

6. Any RPM available for RHEL/CentOS 5?

7. Very nice article. I installed with the help of this. In the middle I faced a problem when run the command ‘phpize’. I got an error like “bash: phpize: command not found”. Instead of ‘phpize’ I run ‘yum -y install php-devel’. Then again I continue from ‘phpize’. It’s installed. Thanx for your article.

8. Could not get this to work with Apache, MPM Worker and PHP as fastcgi. PHP as mod_php works fine.

   Any extra requirement for fastcgi?

9. Can i use xcache and Eaccelerator at the same time? I use vbulletin also..

10. @Sezai,

    Only use one of them at a time. Xcache is the best.

11. Thank you for the great article! Oh, and in Step #3, there’s a funny typo: xcahce.ini :) Cheers

12. Hi, I’m facing a few problems.
    1: After running #make install,
    What gets installed is: /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts
    2: #cd /etc/php.d/… php.d is not a directoy in my setup. Where would I look alternitavely?

13. /etc/php5/conf.d/

    1. /etc/php5/conf.d/ AND /etc/php5/conf.d/ are not exist !!!!!!!!

14. Hi VIVEK GITE

    Great article, after I followed your instructions which were clear I ran the command “php -v” and I got the output below, is my Xcache running as intended? Or do I need to make some adjustments? If so do you have any idea why I got the “PHP Warning: PHP Startup: memcache: Unable to initialize module” error?

    Best regards

    Adrian

16. Hello,

    I am instaling on a RedHat EL4 workstation, with php 5.1.3 and
    I have this pb :
    /usr/include/php/ext/date/lib/timelib_structs.h:24:28: error: timelib_config.h: No such file or directory

    a solution is to just use:

    export CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/php/ext/date/lib

    before the
    ./configure –enable-xcache

    1. Oups , as matter of fact is for php 5.1.2
