How to configure the installation directory when compiling and installing apache and php

Apache and PHP are necessary components for building a web server. They need to be compiled and installed in the Linux system. This article mainly introduces how to set the installation directory during compilation and installation to facilitate subsequent management.

1. Prerequisites

Before compiling and installing Apache and PHP, you need to ensure that the corresponding development tools have been installed, including make, gcc, g, etc. , otherwise it will not be compiled and installed normally.

2. Compile Apache

1. Download the source code package

Official website download address:https://httpd.apache.org/ download.cgi

For example, download the source code package with version 2.4.46:

wget https://archive.apache.org/dist/httpd/httpd-2.4.46.tar.gz

2. Unzip the source code package

tar zxvf httpd-2.4.46.tar.gz

3. Enter the source code directory

cd httpd-2.4.46

4. Configure compilation options

We can configure compilation options through the configure command, where "--prefix" specifies the installation directory. For example:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2

Other commonly used options include "--enable-ssl" to enable SSL support, "--enable-so" to enable dynamic sharing modules, etc. More detailed options can be viewed through "./configure --help".

5. Compile and install

make
make install

3. Compile PHP

1. Download the source code package

Official website download address: https://www.php.net/downloads.php

For example, download the source code package of version 7.4.14:

wget https://www.php.net/distributions/php-7.4.14.tar.gz

2. Unzip the source code package

tar zxvf php-7.4.14.tar.gz

3. Enter the source code directory

cd php-7.4.14

4. Configure compilation options

We can configure compilation options through the configure command, where "--prefix" specifies the installation directory and needs to be specified at the same time "--with-apxs2" specifies the path to Apache's apxs2 executable file. For example:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php \
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs \
--with-mysqli \
--with-zlib \
--with-openssl

Other commonly used options include "--with-mysqli" to enable MySQLi support, "--with-zlib" to enable zlib compression support, "--with-openssl" to enable OpenSSL support, etc. More detailed options can be viewed through "./configure --help".

5. Compile and install

make
make install

4. Summary

When compiling and installing Apache and PHP, configure the "--prefix" option The installation directory can be specified. When specifying the installation directory, we can flexibly set it according to actual needs to facilitate subsequent management.
