Installing apc in LAMP and WAMP

-WAMP sucks, no APC binary/dll for windows found anywhere for the newest versions of PHP ie php 5.3. And yes, the APC binary must match exactly the php version duh!
-LAMP was easy, just get APC from yum install

Setting up vhosts in LAMP


-Add vhost usual syntax to httpd.conf

#This is to keep a link to the orignial localhost if you want to run apc.php for example

ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot “/var/www/html”
ServerName localhost
ErrorLog “logs/localhost-error.log”
CustomLog “logs/localhost-access.log” common

DocumentRoot “/home/ubersmith/public/www”
ServerName ubersmith.raptorcommerce.com

Options -Indexes
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
allow from all

-Add site name to /etc/hosts for dns resolving.

-Make sure the directory in the document root in the vhost config is searchable by apache. so chmod 755 it.
