====== PHP-FPM + NGINX ======

===== Semi debian style (from sources) =====

=== Build essential ===

   apt-get install build-essential autoconf2.59 libpcre3-dev libssl-dev
   apt-get install libxml2-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libpq-dev libmysqlclient15-dev

=== Libevent ===

<code>
LE_VER=1.4.12-stable
wget "http://www.monkey.org/~provos/libevent-$LE_VER.tar.gz"
tar -zxvf "libevent-$LE_VER.tar.gz"
cd "libevent-$LE_VER"
./configure && make
make install
export LIBEVENT_SEARCH_PATH="/usr/local"
</code>

=== PHP-FPM ===
<code>
export PHP_VER=5.2.11
wget "http://launchpad.net/php-fpm/master/0.6/+download/php-fpm-0.6-$PHP_VER.tar.gz"
tar -zxvf "php-fpm-0.6-$PHP_VER.tar.gz"
"php-fpm-0.6-$PHP_VER/generate-fpm-patch"
</code>

=== PHP ===

<code>
export PHP_VER=5.2.11
wget "http://si2.php.net/get/php-$PHP_VER.tar.bz2/from/si2.php.net/mirror"
tar -xf "php-$PHP_VER.tar.bz2"
cd "php-$PHP_VER"
</code>

=== Adding PHP users / patching PHP source and compiling ===

<code>
PHP_GROUP=php
PHP_USER=php

addgroup --system $PHP_GROUP
adduser  --system --home /dev/null --no-create-home --disabled-password --disabled-login $PHP_USER
adduser $PHP_USER $PHP_GROUP
</code>

==== Nginx ====

   sudo apt-get install nginx

**/etc/nginx/sites-available/default**
<code>

==== PHP ====

=== Ubuntu (only) ===

<note important>**If you are running Ubuntu, we first have to resolve two dependencies required for the dotdeb packages. If you are running the amd64 version, you should replace ''i386'' with ''amd64''.**</note>

   cd /tmp
   wget http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/k/krb5/libkrb53_1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-5ubuntu2_i386.deb
   wget http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/icu/libicu38_3.8-6ubuntu0.2_i386.deb
   sudo dpkg -i *.deb


=== Debian + Ubuntu ===

   sudo echo "deb http://php53.dotdeb.org stable all" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install php5-cli php5-common php5-suhosin
   sudo apt-get install php5-fpm php5-cgi
