First, some background is necessary. SMF is written in a very portable language called PHP, which is very commonly used for web software. It has its advantages and disadvantages, and some people prefer it, and some do not. But, regardless, it is what SMF (not unlike many other packages) requires.
As you know, you upload PHP files to your server, and type the URL to them in your browser. Instead of seeing the file you uploaded, you see something generated by it - or, rather, by PHP. You don't have to do anything (except installing PHP) to make this happen - just access the file. When you do so, the following things happen:
- The PHP source code (which looks like text) is analyzed and compiled to something the computer can understand; this is called "compiling."
- The compiled code is ran, and generates output, runs queries, sends emails, etc.
- Whatever response is generated by PHP is sent to the user (you.)
This is all well and good, and makes many things - like testing - easier. However, for larger sites, the resources the first step (analyzing the sourecode and compiling it) takes becomes more and more of a problem. Since this step is always done exactly the same way, it's possible to cache the resulting compiled code (either to disk or to memory) and avoid that first step.
Furthermore, once you start caching the compiled code, you can do one more thing: optimization. Instead of optimization taking more time than it is worth on every page view, it can take that time only for the first page view, an investment for the future. Optimization means removing parts of the code known not to be necessary on your server, calculating the result of mathematical equations, and such things.
This is what eAccelerator does for PHP. There are other competing products available as well, such as Turck MMCache (which eAccelerator, as of this writing, is based on), PHP-Accelerator, Zend Optimizer, and APC. Some of these only optimize code, or only cache it, or do both. Currently, we recommend eAccelerator, because in our tests, production usage, and benchmarks it has shown to preform better than the others. Most of the larger SMF forums use it, to great effect - it has even reversed the effects of a slashdotting.
In addition, SMF 1.1 can take advantage of eAccelerator (and other optimizers/accelerators) for a performance benefit, as well, by way of the caching it exposes to scripts for general data. But that's for another topic. Suffice it to say optimizers are good.
If you are on a dedicated server, you can install and test it for yourself. Installation is fairly easy and straight-forward:
$ wget http://
yourmirror.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/eaccelerator/eaccelerator-0.9.3.tar.gz
$ tar xvzf eaccelerator-0.9.3.tar.gz
$ cd eaccelerator-0.9.3
$
/usr/bin/phpize
$ ./configure --enable-eaccelerator=shared --with-eaccelerator-content-caching --with-php-config=
/usr/bin/php-config
$ make
$ su
$ mkdir /tmp/eaccelerator
$ chown
apache:
apache-group /tmp/eaccelerator
$ chmod 1700 /tmp/eaccelerator
$ make install
(the italicized versions will vary on your system; Apache usually runs as "nobody".)
If you're on Windows, binaries are available at www.arnot.info (http://www.arnot.info/eaccelerator/).
After that, you need to add a line to php.ini for it to load this extension. Typically, the line will look like this:
zend_extension=/path/to/eaccelerator.so
Depending on your platform, it may take a few more tries. When you have it installed, running:
$ php -v
Will show the version of eAccelerator along with the PHP version. After restarting Apache, you should see an immediate (although, depending on your server, perhaps not hugely noticeable) improvement in load times. For more information and more thorough configuration, look at www.eaccelerator.net (http://www.eaccelerator.net/InstallEacceleratorUk).

I have a question I've never really gotten a satisfactory answer to.
How compatible are zend and eAccelerator on the same server? Is there any particularly special configurations needed if you run both?
The reason I ask, is because I host some scripts that require zend. If I install eAccelerator, I don't want to break any sites.
I'm particularly interested because I would like to offer free SMF hosting, but I want to be very sure of what I'm doing before I make that offer.
Excellent stuff. Caching saved me a ton of headaches.

That depends on what you mean by Zend, but I would assume you mean Zend Optimizer.
Zend Optimizer does what it says - it's an optimizer. It does no bytecode caching (that's what I spent so much time talking about.) It also loads encoded PHP scripts, which is an important feature for some servers to have (unfortuntely, in my opinion.)
Both Zend Optimizer and eAccelerator can work on the same server at the same time. As far as I know, the only thing you have to keep in mind is that loading eaccelerator.so has to come before the ZendOptimizer.so file. In other words, you'll have:
zend_extension=/path/to/ZendOptimizer.so
Just make sure eAccelerator is loaded BEFORE ZendOptimizer.so. To be honest, I've never tried this, but I know a lot of people run them together, and have said this. It may not be required, but it can't hurt even so.
From the distribution file, less verbose than I:
; eAccelerator is compatible with Zend Optimizer's loader. Zend Optimizer
; must be installed after eAccelerator in php.ini. If you don't use scripts
; encoded with Zend Encoder then we do not recommend you install Zend Optimizer
; with eAccelerator.QuoteI'm particularly interested because I would like to offer free SMF hosting, but I want to be very sure of what I'm doing before I make that offer.
When offering free hosting, there are a few things you have to take into account:
- free hosting means hackers can sign up to hack someone else's forum. This means tighter security, rigorous screening, or both.
- you'll want to restrict things using open_basedir, disabled_functions, and possibly even safe_mode (and I'd suggest using suExec if you use safe_mode.)
eAccelerator works best when you have a smaller collection of files. If you have multiple installations of the same version of SMF, I would suggest pointing their $sourcedir's all to the same place. This will mean that eAccelerator will cache all their files once, taking less memory and resources for the same benefit. You will definitely want the package manager disabled.

Yep, that's why I'm hanging out here, :D I'm trying to learn all this stuff so I'll know what I'm doing. Eventually. 8)
One possibility I was thinking of was to make separate cpanel accounts for each forum to help keep people out of each other's accounts.

Whoa... GREAT idea (I would never have thought of that on my own).
I don't have "phpize" and can't find out much about it. i'm running on a server:
Apache/1.3.33 (Debian GNU/Linux) PHP/4.3.10-15 4.1.11-Debian_4-log
I downloaded it fine.. but yeah not sure what to do now.
Have you tried to locate phpize by typing
locate phpize
in the shell?
I get nothing with that, so I guess I'll have to install it manually cause debian don't seem to know anything about it. Unless its in a later version of php, cause I'm planning on upgrading anyway.
Thanks for the summary on eAccelerator!
I'm a little concerned about the current state of the project. On the homepage, the status seems very up in the air. What's your feelings on that?
I don't have phpize on my server either :(
OK, i installed the php-dev package and now it is there :)

You're using rpms, aren't you? In that case, you need to either compile PHP from source or install php-devel/php-dev/etc.

They wanted to start distributing eAccelerator with some other software. However, the original creator of Turck MMCache was not willing to allow this (and he owns the original copyrights to much of the code.) They plan to rewrite it, which I agree is dubious, but the current stable version is enough of a benefit.
I'm not sure we will recommend their new version, though - I won't until I see that it's as good as their current. So, for now, I suggest the usage of 0.9.3.

I got phpize now. It displays this:
QuoteConfiguring for:
PHP Api Version: 20020918
Zend Module Api No: 20020429
Zend Extension Api No: 20021010
And then stops. do you know what could be causing that?
That's all phpize should do. It's done its job, now on to the next step (configure)!
-[Unknown]
But should it take me back to the command prompt (it does not at the moment)? Or do i just type the configure lines without the prompt?
Try hitting enter. The phpize command may take a few seconds to finish.

A few minutes on this old computer :P
I'm pretty sure I have it all installed correctly, but i don't know if I have it correctly in php.ini
What's the easiest way to check if it's running?
what do i relace here? chown apache:apache-group /tmp/eaccelerator and with what?
What does your apache run as?
ok, got it "nobody"

You have it commented out, remove the ;'s.
ah dammit i didnt notice that :)
thanks..
does to install two optimizing engine harm the system?
and if yes, which lines should i remove for zend?
these? :
[Zend]
zend_extension_ts = "G:\PHP\xampp\php\zendOptimizer\lib\ZendExtensionManager.dll"
zend_extension_manager.optimizer_ts = "G:\PHP\xampp\php\zendOptimizer\lib\Optimizer"
zend_optimizer.enable_loader = 0
zend_optimizer.optimization_level=15
As I recall, they don't recommend runing both eAccelerator and Zend Optimizer unless you need Zend encoding, so you should comment out and/or remove the Zend lines.

try it.
Deffinatly.
I installed it yesterday, it works no errors so far, though i didnt notice a great improvement in the perfermance, I will compare next week server load statistic with last week to see which one is better..
Thx anyway..
It does make a difference, forgot to readd it after upgrading to php 4.4.1 and load was significantly higher. Unless your server is working hard anyway you are unlikely to really notice it, but page generation time will be slightly lower.
You can see it here in fact, http://www.redandwhitekop.com/load/index.php?logfile=1131062400.log No prizes for guessing what time I added it back in.

Make sure the extension dir is set right (extension_dir setting in php.ini). Also make sure you have the php.ini that's in xampp\apache\bin. Xampp has multiple php.ini files, only one is valid ;)
Umm.. I didnt notice that :D
I knew that it has many php.ini files, In case doing it wrong, I changed all of them but see, I missed one :D
But thats ok, people learn by trying and making mistakes.. ;)
Thanks Compuart
Just a little info... for whom did integrate Coopermine Photo Gallery with SMF, if they use caching, the gallery will not work, it will give an error...
I've probably misunderstood but I'm running
SMF 1.1 rc1 + MKPortal 1.1 with Coppermine intergated into my SMF and I've got Eaccelerator installed , don't seem to have a problem ??
Hmmm That's weird :o i have Joomla + SMF + coppermine but when i turned it on
REPLACE INTO smf_settings
(variable, value)
VALUES ('cache_enable', '2');
I had a weird error while accessing coppermine i don't remember it but something about cache
Some versions of the coppermine bridge dont like it, do a search, theres a posted fix.
In case anyone is looking for eAccelerator 0.9.3 for php 5.0.5 on win32:
http://www.dynaverse.net/downloads/Utilities/eAccelerator0.9.3_php5.0.5.zip
I decided not to wait for http://www.arnot.info/eaccelerator/ to do it as I wanted to use php 5.0.5 right away, so I went ahead and compiled it myself, it took a little futzing but it compiled OK and is running fine on our server.
Enjoy! :D

eAccelerator 0.9.4-rc1 (or 0.9.3) is not compatible with php 5.1.0... grrr! >:(
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1390864&forum_id=416742
Use APC, it's a better solution all round if you ask me, going to make the switch myself.
What is the advantage of APC over eAccellerator?
None for me it would appear. APC degrades my server performance by about 10% compared to no caching at all and by about 300% compared to eAccelerator. I do not reccomend APC based on this experience. I'm going to give the Zend Optimizer another try...
It appears that the Zend Optimiser 2.5.10 is not compatible with php 5.1.0 either... >:(
I'm thinking I'll give up on caching programs in order to allow me to keep my php up to date. I'm considering writing my own php caching application at this point if I will ever use one again.
Interesting, planning on doing my own APC testing tonight.
Yesterday i read an article about PHP6 which stated APC would be added to PHP core distribution. Disabled by default but it will eventually be available for many people. http://www.php.net/~derick/meeting-notes.html#add-an-opcode-cache-to-the-distribution-apc
So i'm interested in your test results Ben_S :)
APC seems to visibly perform about the same to me, I'm still using PHP 4.4.1 though.
Some tests with apachebench as follows which show a similar level of performance. I did two tests using each accelerator and for the sake of it, did two tests with no accelerator. These tests are pretty random given than in the last 10 minutes there are 100+ users active on my board. They do show how important an accelerator is though....

APC and eA seem to offer similar performance but the APC team know what they are doing, not entirely sure the eAccelerator team know what they are doing since they are just tweaking / fixing bugs in the mmcache code (and very slowly @ that) and claim they have plans to rewrite it from scratch.
No accelerator is over half as slow which shows how importantan accelerator is.
quick update, if anything, my real life load with APC is lower than with eAccelerator. Havent tweaked APC's settings yet either.
Might even be quicker when it's added to the core distribution of PHP when it probably has less overhead. But that's for the future :)
Nice benchmark, there's indeed not much difference between APC and eA. APC might even be better if you run a highly stressed box considering it's lower CPU usage.
Interesting because APC plain sucked on my server. (Apache 2.0.55, php 5.1.1, Win32)
Ben_S, I assume since you're running Apache/1.3.34 you're running php 4.4.1 (as a cgi) and also running on a linux server? You must also have your cache programs cache to disk as caching to memory will not work running php as a cgi?
Which tells me that APC is coded only for php 4.x. :( (though I got it to compile against php5.1.0 source)
I'm, really tempted to roll our server back to Apache 1.3.x / php 4.4.x. We would lose a bunch of functionality but probably gain significant speed. (also considering the move from Windows Server 2003 to FreeBSD6)
I run php as an apache module & cache to memory.
Theres some benchmarks on the vB forums which show it works well with php5, although I've not tried it with PHP 5 myself. Last time I tried running php5 I found it slower than php4, although that was a while back so things may have changed, and probably have with the release of php 5.1.
i've installed it on our forum.. and it seems to work fine.. apache 1.3.xx and php5 compiled APC as DSO module...
<wipes egg off face>
Well I tried APC again on php 5.1.1 and it does improve my server performance slightly. It does not seem to perform as well as eAccelerator on php 5.0.5 but it does help. This time I left all of its settings at the default, I must have buggered something up last time. (perhaps by turning slam defense on?)
The copy I compiled for php 5.1.1 on Win32 is here:
http://www.dynaverse.net/downloads/Utilities/php_apc-3.0.8_php-5.1.1.zip
Note that the apc.gc_ttl setting should be set to zero for php versions greater than 5.1.0 as there is no garbage collection.
Had to ditch APC: http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=59528.0 Its not happy on Windows it seems (at least with php 5.1.1).
The performance gain was minimal and inconsistent anyway. I want my eAcclerator back! :(
well i for one, belive that if the forum does not suffer by it(it wont get slower, coding is still being optimized for people without resellers and stuff), it can make a great contribution,
but as i said, if the forum load isnt comprimised for people without eAccellarator(or how its spelled),
Greetz, Leipe Po
i'm trying to instal php-dev because I don't have phpize, but i don't know which one i must choose :

What cpu? If it's a 32bit processor you want the top one, if it's 64nit the bottom one.
32bit
thank you
now when i try the next step i got these errors:

eAccelerator won't work as a shared extension. You will need to either use --with-eaccelerator or change "shared" to the actual path where eaccelerator can be found.
doesn't work too :(

can someone help me. I've tryed to install php-devel to have acess to phpize.

I think autoconf isn't installed on your server. Try:
yum install autoconf
i think it is:
locate autoconf
/var/cache/yum/base/headers/autoconf213-0-2.13-8.noarch.hdr
/var/cache/yum/base/headers/autoconf-0-2.59-3.noarch.hdr

/lib/modules/2.6.10-1.771_FC2/build/include/linux/autoconf.h
/lib/modules/2.6.5-1.358/build/include/linux/autoconf.h
what do u suggest?
those are merely source files. Try running autoconf:
autoconf --version
If it doesn't find it, it'd need to be installed.
it might be the problem.
I installed autoconf:
yum install autoconf

it worked out this time :)
but another problem right in the end of the process:
make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
[root@xxx eaccelerator-0.9.3]# su
[root@xxx eaccelerator-0.9.3]# mkdir /tmp/eaccelerator
[root@xxx eaccelerator-0.9.3]# chown apache:apache-group /tmp/eaccelerator
chown: `apache:apache-group': invalid group
[root@xxx eaccelerator-0.9.3]# chmod 1700 /tmp/eaccelerator
[root@xxx eaccelerator-0.9.3]# make install
make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.
The install guide says to change anything in italic to what your server has it set to. It clearly says that apache-group is not a valid group, that you need to change that to the group your apache runs under. "nobody is usually the group this is run as"
so the command would be:
Quote
chown apache:nobody /tmp/eaccelerator
which is why it says invalid group.
And, since your initial command of make failed, make install will also fail. Make builds it, make install puts it all together. Then you likely need to
Quote
cp modules/eaccelerator.so /usr/lib/eaccelerator.so
and this error:
make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
is it normal?
No. did your ./configure command run properly?
to "try again" do the following:
inside the eaccelerator directory:
Quote
$ make clean
$ ./configure --enable-eaccelerator=shared --with-php-config=/usr/bin/php-config
$ make
$ su
# mkdir /tmp/eaccelerator
# chown apache:nobody /tmp/eaccelerator
# chmod 1700 /tmp/eaccelerator
# make install
# cp modules/eaccelerator.so /usr/lib/eaccelerator.so
report back if you have problems...
./configure run properly.
but the make command always give me that error message.
and also that make clean gives me this
make clean
make: *** No rule to make target `clean'. Stop.
should i install this on PHP5 with mysql 4.1 and apache 2?

It might need C++
Try:

I am not that great with Linux and i read that eAccelerator isn't compatible with php5.
I used apt-get to install php5 on Sarge (Debian).
Can i just install eAccellerator from the source code?
According to themselves they have fixed that in 0.9.4 RC2 ("eA should be php 5 compatible except some very unusual cases."). You can always try to compile eaccelerator. If it works, it'll compile a module you then can include in the php.ini file. If it fails after that, simply remove it from php.ini and it's gone. So not much risk involved.
oh, in the same release notes: "This version DOESN'T support php 5.1"
:(
5.1.2-0bpo1 >:(
I guess you're bound to use APC then :P (that is, if that one is compatible...)

How to get this working with win32?
Download a DLL from this page (http://www.arnot.info/eaccelerator/), move it to the extension folder, include the extension in php.ini as well as the other php.ini settings as documented in the eaccelerator manual and restart PHP.

Done and added this:
extension="eaccelerator.dll"
eaccelerator.shm_size = "64"
eaccelerator.cache_dir = "/tmp/eaccelerator"
eaccelerator.enable = "1"
eaccelerator.optimizer = "1"

eaccelerator.shm_max = "0"
eaccelerator.shm_ttl = "0"
eaccelerator.shm_prune_period = "0"
eaccelerator.shm_only = "0"
eaccelerator.compress = "1"
eaccelerator.compress_level = "9"
eaccelerator.keys = "shm_and_disk"
eaccelerator.sessions = "shm_and_disk"
eaccelerator.content = "shm_and_disk"
but the page generation time is still around 0.3xx / 1+ seconds
Do not, and I repeat DO NOT run eaccelerator or APC if you are using sapi module for IIS on windows. Thread aborts, IIS crashes, pages don't render fun stuff. If you want to use them you must be running cgi\fastcgi mode!!!!
I spent days trying to figure out what the hell was wrong.

Can someone explain the levels of caching in SMF?
I did a search, but not a good answer found.
I use eAccelerator and it is more than 10 times faster now, a lot of cpu resources are used by php.
There are several places within SMF that use caching. Most uses of caching are level 1, but some places it's either requiring a lot of cache memory or experimental (that is, it might not be updated frequently enough to show the most up to date information). In those cases only cache levels 2 and 3 will be using cache.
Hello,

Ok, here's the good code line :
tar xvfj eaccelerator-0.9.5.tar.bz2
Then after that all steps successful, thanx for that topic !
:)
Just feel myself so n00b again! :D What do I put to the settings box, where example is "serve1, server2, server3:port, server4"? Is localhost the answer? or do I leave it empty? :)
Thanks! :)
Nothing unless you are using memcached
Thank you! When I wrote "localhost" there, the forum worked with no errors. But when somebody tried to register, the "Custom profile field" -mod said that you haven't filled one area that must be filled, and from admin panel you couldn't change that mods options. But now it's working! :)
I have the latest eaccelerator installed and it also shows up in phpinfo but SMF doesn't detect it.
Any ideas?
The new eaccelerator by default disables cache I'm afraid. You'd need to explicitely configure it with the shared memory functions. Use
./configure --help
for details.
OK, i recompiled it with cache enabled and did a "make install" (i didn't remove the "old" one first).
No change, what am i doing wrong?
See here: http://www.vrouwenpower.nl/sys/php.php
I've been looking at this, and I think I've installed it correctly. However when I go to add the bit to php.ini I find there is already stuff there.... So, is this right?

madfiddler, eAccelerator needs to load before Zend does. Also, I believe it should be loaded as a normal extension, not a Zend extension (at least, that's what I needed to do. Loading it as a Zend extension crashed Apache whenever I tried).
My configuration looks a bit like:

hmm ok thanks.. Well, for me SMF is saying it's installed, so I guess I'm ok... ?
... apparently not. The entire server went down last night, and apparently it was eAccelerator that caused it. They've taken it off again.. Time for a ticket now I think cos the server is sooo slow.. page loads between 4-10 seconds, sometimes less, sometimes more... but only with sites using sql type software...
Hi,
I have problems with installing eAccelerator. It says that it's not installed. I'm not sure putting this code at the right place in php.ini
extension="ea/eaccelerator-0.9.5-beta1/modules/eaccelerator.so"
eaccelerator.shm_size="16"
eaccelerator.cache_dir="/tmp/eaccelerator"
eaccelerator.enable="1"
eaccelerator.optimizer="1"
eaccelerator.check_mtime="1"
eaccelerator.debug="0"
eaccelerator.filter=""
eaccelerator.shm_max="0"
eaccelerator.shm_ttl="0"
eaccelerator.shm_prune_period="0"
eaccelerator.shm_only="0"
eaccelerator.compress="1"
eaccelerator.compress_level="9"
Where do I have to put it?
I hav this in the log files:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php/modules/ea/eaccelerator-0.9.5-beta1/modules/eaccelerator.so' - /usr/lib/php/modules/ea/eaccelerator-0.9.5-beta1/modules/eaccelerator.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
Where did you found the log files with the PHP warning error? Just installing eAccelerator again on my new server and forgot how I did that before...
It's in my CP, Service management and Log files, then I go to httpd and I open error log
Still need help with this error:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php/modules/ea/eaccelerator-0.9.5-beta1/modules/eaccelerator.so' - /usr/lib/php/modules/ea/eaccelerator-0.9.5-beta1/modules/eaccelerator.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
joh87swe, does the file exist? If it does not, is it somewhere else?
maybe you can found it here:
/usr/local/src/eaccelerator-0.9.5/modules/eaccelerator.so
Yes it exist under ea/eaccelerator-0.9.5-beta1/modules/eaccelerator.so
I also think I placed the code at the wrong place in php.ini where do I have to paste it?
extension="ea/eaccelerator-0.9.5-beta1/modules/eaccelerator.so"
eaccelerator.shm_size="16"
eaccelerator.cache_dir="/tmp/eaccelerator"
eaccelerator.enable="1"

eaccelerator.shm_ttl="0"
eaccelerator.shm_prune_period="0"
eaccelerator.shm_only="0"
eaccelerator.compress="1"
eaccelerator.compress_level="9"
I put it at the bottom of my php.ini, but you can do a search to zend
After the real End of php.ini ?
I did it on 1 server which is working... just on the end. but I am installing some new servers now and there is a line already with zend, just do a search.
if you type php -v (command line) do you see something like:

You will have to change the path to point to wherever it put the eaccelerator.so file.
I don't understand? What do I have to do?
Sorry ignore me, hadn't noticed there was an extra page and you had sorted it.

PHP 5.0.4 is
very old, and has security vulnerabilities. I suggest you update as soon as possible!

For anyone that's wondering about this, after you run
make install, it should tell you the path it's installed into. On the systems I admin (CentOS and RHEL4, both using PHP 5.2.1), this is at
/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/, so the extension line should look like:
extension=/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/eaccelerator.so .
On my personal Debian Etch system, it's at
/usr/lib/php5/20060613+lfs instead.
EDIT: Note that I now use XCache rather than eAccelerator. I've found XCache to be much faster than eAccelerator :). If you like, I can post a how to on this (although it's really quite easy, just follow their instructions)
thanks for noticing me, just a brand new server with fedora core 4, all software needs an update!
Now I have these errors in my error log under Log files root directory/httpd
...
EACCELERATOR hit: "/var/www/html/index.php"
EACCELERATOR hit: "/var/www/html/index.php"
EACCELERATOR hit: "/var/www/html/phpinfo.php"
...
Is this normal?

They're not errors, that's information produced by eAccelerator when debug mode is turned on (a "hit" is when something is loaded from the cache, whereas a "miss" is when something isn't loaded from cache). To disable these messages, make sure debug mode is turned off in php.ini:
...
eaccelerator.debug = 0
...
Thanks Daniel15,
In smf settings, under serversettings -> Cache. SMF says it recognize eAccelerator, but do I have to do something (Now the caching level is set to "No cacheing") or does SMF use eAccelerator as default?
Do I have to activate local storage of cookies?
Cordially,
Johan

but smf:
SMF has not been able to detect a compatible accelerator on your server.
Any hints? I broke my head on it for 3 evenings now...
You need to compile eAccelerator with a certain flag, I believe it's --enable-eaccelerator-content-caching, but I'm not quite sure (I'd need to look it up). Try running ./configure --help, and see if it tells you anything.
Yeah, it needs a flag to run right. I think they should just enable it by default and have a flag to disable it.
The required flag is in the first post of this topic. Stupid eAccelerator.
great instructions.
My host just installed eAccelerator and here is what they gave me:

I went ahead and set it to level 1 anyways, but I wanted to make sure that wasnt a problem and if there was a way i could check to make sure it was working proper? Thanks!
You should check phpinfo and in there will be a section under eaccelerator. Here's what mine says for example.
As you see there are 582 cached scripts. I know it is working...

There was some talk about Zend Optimizer and eaccelerator not working well together unless they were listed in a specific order inside php.ini
Don't ask me what order would be correct but I found other documents on the web last night which also backed the claim to that... which I believe was mentioned earlier in this topic.
I don't know if you have to restart something on your apache server to recognize the eaccelerator or not in your case. I don't remember doing in anything special last night for that.
I can't really offer any more information than that. I do not have the Zend Optimizer on my server... Eaccelerator certainly has helped out a lot it seems..
where do i find php.ini?
Look at the results from phpinfo
Configuration File (php.ini) Path /etc/php.ini
ok you were right. I needed to restart Apache. Now its singing like a bird. Looks just like what you posted from your site. Greatly Appreciate your help ;)
I can't install :(

pls help what I have to do?
Make sure you have development tools installed. That aclocal error indicates you are missing at least some of those tools (specifically automake).
I installed this way
yum install php-devel
but it didn't solve.
namely which code I have to use?
I'm guessing Fedora, RHEL, or CentOS. I'm not that familiar with those systems, but you need to find the package containing Automake for a start.
Try
yum install gcc automake
That may or may not solve the problem :)

Aside from removing the necessary lines in php.ini, how can I get eAccelerator totally out of my system?
removing files that you installed?.so type files.
i wanna install another server (centos4.2) but I have a problem

I did not understand. what can I do? What code i need? and i tried to install eaccelerator-0.9.5.2. :-[
barisaydiner, what version of PHP are you using? You might be using an old version that is not supported... That looks like a problem with PHP versions lower than 4.3.10.

thank you I checked it, version is 4.3.9 :)
I hope if i upgrede it I will solve it, thanks again. I will come back. :)
No problem :D
It is always recommended to use the latest PHP version, because security holes are often patched. So, you should be using either PHP 4.4.7 or 5.2.5. If you're using "yum" on CentOS to install PHP, I'd suggest to use the "RPMForge" repository, as it usually has the newest packages (the main CentOS ones get old quickly).
For CentOS 4 or Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, run this command:
rpm -Uhv http://apt.sw.be/packages/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el4.rf.i386.rpm
For CentOS or RHEL 5:
rpm -Uhv http://apt.sw.be/packages/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm
This will set up the repository for use. Then just do something like yum install php php-devel (I think that's all, I'm not too experienced with CentOS, as my main distribution of choice is Debian)
More information on this repository: http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/
Hope this helps you :D

I installed accelerator few days back and I thought response time was improved but it was never detected by smf, then I recompiled it with "--with-eaccelerator-content-caching " but still it is not visible in sMF caching option.

That means you don't have the autoconf package installed. You will need to install this on your server. This can usually be done through "yum install autoconf" or "apt-get install autoconf".

Well, thats true.. anyways.. do share what performance gain you saw after eaccelerator.. I hv a board something double of your specs.. and ya .. eaccelerator was helpful.. but still I cant' come closer to page creation time I see simplemachines.org/community page :P
What kind of specs is your server? Do keep in mind that we actually have separate servers for database and web. It helps a lot since you can tune each one for its role. When you combine functions on a single server, you have to compromise on things.
