Install PHP from source on CentOS

System environment

CentOS 6.5 64-bit

Nginx 1.6.2

MySQL 5.6.23

PHP 5.6.6

Dependent libraries

#为了省事，直接用yum来安装吧
yum -y install libmcrypt-devel libxml2-devel curl-devel libjpeg-devel libpng-devel freetype-devel openssl-devel

Create PHP log directory

mkdir -p /var/logs/php

Set compilation parameters

./configure \
--prefix=/usr/local/php \
--with-config-file-path=/usr/local/etc/php \
--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
--with-mysqli \
--with-gd \
--with-jpeg-dir \
--with-png-dir \
--with-freetype-dir \
--with-curl \
--enable-mbstring \
--enable-sockets \
--enable-pcntl \
--enable-fpm \
--with-fpm-user=nginx \
--with-fpm-group=nginx \
--with-mcrypt \
--with-openssl \
--with-pdo-mysql \
--with-libxml-dir \
--with-zlib \
--with-pcre-dir

Start compiling and installing

make && make install

Note: If the error "virtual memory exhausted: Cannot allocate memory" appears during the compilation process, it means that the machine's memory is too small. At this time, you can try adding a --diable-fileinfo to the compilation parameters, and then recompile. Install

Configure php-fpm.conf

cp /usr/local/php/etc/php-fpm.conf.default /usr/local/etc/php/php-fpm.conf
vi /usr/local/etc/php/php-fpm.conf

’s main modifications are:

Note: user and group must be consistent with the running user and group of nginx

Configure php.ini

cp /usr/local/src/php-5.6.6/php.ini-development /usr/local/etc/php/php.ini
vi /usr/local/etc/php/php.ini

The main modifications are:

Start php-fpm

/usr/local/php/sbin/php-fpm -c /usr/local/etc/php/php.ini -y /usr/local/etc/php/php-fpm.conf

Modify nginx.conf

Restart nginx

/usr/local/sbin/nginx/nginx -s stop
/usr/local/sbin/nginx/nginx -c /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

The above introduces how to install PHP in source code mode on CentOS, including the relevant aspects. I hope it will be helpful to friends who are interested in PHP tutorials.
