In server administration, optimizing PHP performance is a common task. One effective way to achieve this is by using the Alternative PHP Cache (APC), a robust and open-source framework designed for caching and optimizing PHP intermediate code. APC is a PECL extension, sharing the packaging and distribution system with its sister, PEAR.<\/p>\n

This comprehensive guide will walk you through the steps to enable the admin script of APC, building on our previous tutorial on how to enable APC with PHP on CentOS 6.3<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Create an APC Directory on Document Root<\/h2>\n

First, you need to create a directory named ‘apc’ on the document root. This can be done using the following command:<\/p>\n

\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# mkdir \/var\/www\/html\/apc\r\n<\/pre>\n
Step 2: Copy apc.php from php-pecl-apc Folder to Document Root<\/h2>\n
Next, copy the ‘apc.php’ file from the ‘php-pecl-apc’ folder to the document root. Use the command below:<\/p>\n
\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# cp \/usr\/share\/doc\/php-pecl-apc-*\/apc.php \/var\/www\/html\/apc\r\n<\/pre>\n
Step 3: Create a New File Named apc.conf.php<\/h2>\n
Now, create a new file named ‘apc.conf.php’. This can be done using the ‘vi’ command as shown below:<\/p>\n
\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# vi \/var\/www\/html\/apc\/apc.conf.php\r\n<\/pre>\n
\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\n
Step 4: Create a New File Named apc.conf<\/h2>\n
In this step, create another new file named ‘apc.conf’. Use the following command:<\/p>\n
\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# vi \/etc\/httpd\/conf.d\/apc.conf\r\n<\/pre>\n
\r\n<Directory \/var\/www\/html\/apc>\r\n Order Deny,Allow\r\n Deny from all\r\n Allow from 127.0.0.1 192.168.1.0\/24 \/\/ IP address you allow\r\n<\/Directory>\r\n<\/pre>\n
Step 5: Restart Apache HTTPD<\/h2>\n
After creating the necessary files, it’s time to restart Apache HTTPD. Use the command below:<\/p>\n
\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# \/etc\/rc.d\/init.d\/httpd restart\r\nStopping httpd: [ OK ]\r\nStarting httpd: [ OK ]\r\n<\/pre>\n
Step 6: Navigate to the APC Admin Script<\/h2>\n
Finally, navigate your browser to ‘http:\/\/servername\/apc\/apc.php’. The APC admin script should now be enabled and visible.<\/p>\n
