Apache2 + Php + Pthreads HowTos
- by Drug
04 LTS 64 bit. What I would really love to do is sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5 but compile PHP with --enable-maintainer-zts so I could later install pthreads with pecl install pthreads. Sadly I understand that it is not possible. I know that the easiest way is to recompile PHP together with apache support and zts. However I really like the way the standard Ubuntu PHP package is configured and I am used to the path`s for CLI php.ini config, Apache php.ini config and other paths for modules and files that this Ubuntu package defines. So i just want to change the package source a little bit and install it.
# Get the stuff necessary to build the package
sudo apt-get build-dep php5-common
# Get the package source
sudo apt-get source php5-common
At this point I am getting sources not for the php5-common package but the whole php5 package. If I would sudo make && make install at this point, would it mean that I am installing a lot of unnecessary stuff?
# Add configuration options
./configure --enable-maintainer-zts
Does this mean that I am appending a configuration option? Or am I generating a whole new config?
Alternative at this point Is there a way of getting the config options that this package defines, so that I can grab a php source from php.net and compile it with
$ ./configure --prefix=package_prefix \ // Option 1 from package
--enable-embed \ // Option 2 from package
--with-regex=php \ // Option 3 from package
Continuing the main idea ...
Solution 1
# Compile (Not compiling)
sudo make && make install
Will I be building PHP with EVERYTHING at this point? If I compile like this, I will not be able to remove the mess I made using sudo apt-get purge php5?
Solution 2
# ReCompile the package
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b
This does not compile also.
Please correct my steps, so I can install everything correctly.
