Discovered that xcache and xdebug are not compatible. For some reason, after trying to run them together php-fpm wouldn't start even though I had disabled xdebug. Disabling both xcache and xdebug has fixed the issue. Now I have to figure out how to get xcache working again...by gcaplan - Nginx Mailing List - English
Hi folks Not strictly an Nginx issue, but got some great advice on php-fpm here before so though I'd trade on your generosity... ISSUE OVERVIEW 1) php-fpm is running fine on Ubuntu 12 2) I stupidly configure xdebug to run on the same port as php-fpm and try to restart php-fpm 3) I correct the misconfiguration, but now php-fpm won't start at all, even after a reboot. 4) The only dby gcaplan - Nginx Mailing List - English
Hi guys You've been brilliant - so for now I go with php-fpm and xcache, and I actually understand what's happening! As I say, the community might consider adding this info to the FAQs, as there's a lot of misleading blogs and post out there on this whole issue of fastcgi and opcode caching... Thanks for all your help!by gcaplan - Nginx Mailing List - English
Roberto > I am not a big fan of opcode caching I'm interested in your reasons for this. My experience with mod_php is that I get huge performance improvements with opcode caching (my app loads a lot of code and libraries). If you don't use opcode caching, is there a better way to get the same benefits?by gcaplan - Nginx Mailing List - English
Hi Volodymyr Thanks for your helpful response. From what you say, opcode caching is essential and Xcache is the way to go. But just to understand - does a php-fpm pool access a single Xcache, or is there a separate cache set up for each process? I'm trying to get a handle on the memory implications. Thanks for the heads up on uWSGI. But my sysadmin skills are basic (I'm a developer reallby gcaplan - Nginx Mailing List - English
Hi folks Thinking of abandoning mod_php for the wonderful world of nginx, but googling the issue of opcode caching with fastcgi is proving surprisingly confusing: there's a lot of conflicting information out there. My basic question is this: what is the most performant, memory-efficient, Slashdot resistant way to set up nginx for running a complex PHP app? More specifically: 1) Why caby gcaplan - Nginx Mailing List - English
