The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Compile PHP5 with Fast CGI support

Asked by briancassin in PHP Installation, WebApplications, PHP Scripting Language

Tags: PHP5

Hello all
I have a an installation of Ubuntu server 7.10 and I am trying to install the following apps to work together (i am using the latest versions of everything with the exception of mysql which is being installed through apt-get

lighttpd
php5.x
mysql

Specfically what I want to do is have a PHP5 with FastCGI, Lighttpd, MySQL and maybe eaccelerator installed all together. Also I have to be able to do rewrites with PHP

I have followed the directions here
http://trac.lighttpd.net/trac/wiki/Docs%3AModFastCGI#preparing-php-as-a-fastcgi-program

I downloaded PHP using wget to the following directory
/var/tmp
i then did tar xzvf php5.x    to untar it
i then cd into the php directory
I ran this code
 ./configure --enable-fastcgi --enable-force-cgi-redirect --without-apache --without-apxs
it configured successfully
I then did
make
make install
I then went to type php -v and it tells me it cannot be found
if I do apt-get install php5   it wants to install php5, php5-common, php5-cli,
if I tell it to install those things and then check php with php -v I get php (cli) instead of fast-cgi

I am apparently missing something here I am new to linux so maybe I am making some newbie mistake when they give the instructions to compile it with fast-cgi support...
It said in the above tutorial or one of the other ones that PHP includes fast CGI but I do not see anything on PHP's site documenting that do I need to install Fast-CGI seperately ?   http://www.fastcgi.com/


I also tried these docs

this one worked but it was only using CGI not fast CGI
http://www.ubuntugeek.com/lighttpd-webserver-setup-with-php5-and-mysql-support.html

I looked at this but it just seemed to be an overview
http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/lighttpd-php-fastcgi-configuration.html

I have not tried this one yet
http://blog.kovyrin.net/2006/05/30/nginx-php-fastcgi-howto/


I am totally confused please help I need to get my server up and running it has been down for two weeks ever since apache because a resource hog and super slow.
