APC (Alternative PHP Cache) extension for PHP?

[BigBadaBoom]

Does anyone know if there's a compiled version of the apc-extension for PHP that works on the QNAPs?? (In other words, I'm looking for the 'apc.so').
I'd love to install apc on my TS-109 but can't find any reference to it here on the forums, nor anything on ipkg.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Any news on this? I would like to install it as well on my QNAP TS-419+

I am still trying to install ACP and I did get a little further as I'm learning how to deal with Linux and QNAP... Here is the full list of steps to accomplish the job, I made it up with what I found on couple sites, but I can't get to the end just yet.

Code: Select all

1- Download APC
# wget http://pecl.php.net/get/APC-3.1.13.tgz

2- Extract APC
# tar -xzf APC-3.1.13.tgz

3- Install some prerequisite tools
# ipkg install grep
# ipkg install libtool
# ipkg install perl
# ipkg install autoconf
# ipkg install automake

4- run command phpize
# phpize

5- compile, configure, make
# ./configure --enable-apc --enable-apc-mmap --with-php-config=/opt/bin/php-config
# make
# make install

7- edit PHP.ini and add following extension:
extension=”/apc_location/apc.so”

8- restart Apache
# /etc/init.d/./Qthttpd.sh restart

I am able to reach step 5, but this one is shooting the following error:

checking for grep that handles long lines and -e... configure: error: no acceptable grep could be found in /bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/local/sbin:/opt/bin:/opt/sbin:/usr/xpg4/bin

Thanks for your help, and please note that I do not know much about Linux command, so you are losing me when you say BusyBox and so on... I did the command you said for updating the grep, and when I run which grep I get /bin/grep, so it's not exactly as you said... and even if I try to run the same ./configure command, I get the same result... again I am very newbie to Linux shell, does I have anything else to change?

Actually, I didn't see it at first but the grep update is failing, it's returning the following:

Ok it's coming, it's coming, but I get roadblock again... ahh too bad I'm not so good with Linux...
Now doing the echo $PATH is exactly as you said, great! I lost track of where my APC went so, no problem I did another wget and redoing the steps, but now I'm getting blocked at:

Code: Select all

# phpize

[~/APC-3.1.13] # echo $PATH
/opt/bin:/opt/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/local/sbin
[~/APC-3.1.13] # which grep
/opt/bin/grep

Thanks but it seems that I already had installed it m4 has this is the result:

[~/APC-3.1.13] # ipkg install m4
Package m4 (1.4.16-1) installed in root is up to date.
Nothing to be done

[~/APC-3.1.13] # phpize

and your previous command for updating the grep is still failing, I don't know if I still need it or not?

/opt/bin/m4

Well anyhow thanks for your help... Maybe 1 more thing, just to make sure, I am running these commands through putty and I'm logged in with the admin username. When I'm looking for that last error, some people are talking about permission errors, and some others are talking about updating grep. How would I do an update if I want to?
