Apache HTTP Server

Download and save Apache source archive from http://httpd.apache.org We use mod_deflate to support HTTP gzip compression. And mod_mem_cache to support caching of file descriptors.

cd /usr/local/src
md5sum -cv httpd-2.XX.YY.tar.gz.md5
#md5sum must be print OK
http-2.XX.YY.tar.gz OK
rm http-2.XX.YY.tar.gz
cd http-2.XX.YY

For Java Front Server use MPM worker :

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache-2.2.3 --with-mpm=worker --enable-ssl --enable-rewrite --enable-usertrack --enable-proxy --enable-deflate --enable-cache --enable-mem-cache --disable-userdir

For PHP Front Server use MPM pre-fork (PHP doesn't support worker) :

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache-2.2.3 --with-mpm=prefork --enable-ssl --enable-rewrite --enable-usertrack --enable-proxy --enable-deflate --enable-cache --enable-mem-cache --disable-userdir

Compile and install :

make
make install

Install binaries and create required user and directories.

ln -s /usr/local/apache-2.XX.YY /usr/local/apache
mkdir /var/log/apache
mkdir /etc/apache
mv /usr/local/apache/conf /etc/apache/
ln -s /etc/apache/conf /usr/local/apache/conf
mkdir -p /usr/lib/apache
mv /usr/local/apache/modules /usr/lib/apache
ln -s /usr/lib/apache/modules /usr/local/apache/modules
groupadd -g 2100 wwwgroup
useradd -d /srv/www -g wwwgroup -u 2101 -m -s /bin/true apache

You can test PHP environment with simple PHP page and this content :

<? phpinfo(); ?>

APC is an extension of Zend PHP engine. It's executable cache, PHP page is not re-interpreted at each call. This feature will be integrate to PHP version 6.

cd /usr/local/src
wget http://pecl.php.net/get/APC-X.X.X.tgz
tar xzf APC-X.X.X.tgz
rm xzf APC-X.X.X.tgz
cd APC-X.X.X
/usr/local/bin/phpize
./configure --enable-apc --enable-apc-mmap --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-php-config=/usr/local/bin/php-config
make
make install
cp modules/apc.so /usr/lib/php5/modules 

Register APC extension in PHP configuration file: /etc/php/apache/php.ini
