How to install and configure the php environment on Linux

The example in this article describes how to install and configure the PHP environment on Linux. Share it with everyone for your reference, the details are as follows:

1. Get the installation file: http://www.php.net/downloads.php php-5.3.8.tar.gz

Get the support files needed to install php: http://download.csdn.net/download/netlong339/1351852 libxml2-2.6.32.tar.gz

2. Install libxml2

Copy the code The code is as follows:

tar zxvf libxml2-2.6.32 .tar.gz
cd libxml2-2.6.32
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/libxml2
make
make install

If the installation is successful, it will be generated in the /usr/local/libxml2/ directory There are five directories: bin, include, lib, man and share. When installing the configuration of the PHP5 source code package later, the "--with-libxml-dir=/usr/local/libxml2" option will be added to the options of the configure command to specify the location where the libxml2 library file is installed.

3. Install php5

Copy the code The code is as follows:

#tar zvxf php-5.3.8.tar.gz
#cd php-5.3.8
#./configure
--prefix=/ usr/local/php
--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs
--enable-fastcgi
--enable-fpm
#make
#make install

4. Reconfigure apache2 to support php

① Configure httpd.conf to allow apache to support PHP:

Copy the code The code is as follows:

# vi /usr/local/apache/ conf/httpd.conf

Find AddType application/x-gzip .gz .tgz and add the following content under it

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php (. There is a space in front of it)

AddType application/x- httpd-php-source .phps (. There is a space in front of it)

② Then CPOPY the PHP configuration file

Copy the code The code is as follows:

cp php-5.3.8/php.ini.dist /usr/ local/php/lib/php.ini

(If there is no php.ini.dist, just rename any of php.ini-development php.ini-production to php.ini.dist.)

Modify the php.ini file

Copy the code The code is as follows:

register_globals = On

③ Restart apache

Copy the codeThe code is as follows:

service apache restart

5 .Test whether php Successfully installed

Write a php test page info.php and put it in apache2/htdocs.

Enter in the browser: server address/info.php

If the php information can be displayed normally, it means that the Apche+Mysql+PHP installation is successful!

I hope this article will be helpful to everyone in PHP programming.

The above introduces the method of installing and configuring the PHP environment in Linux, including the relevant aspects. I hope it will be helpful to friends who are interested in PHP tutorials.
