Install PHP-FPM and Codeigniter on top of Nginx

April 20, 2009 by ElToro

This post handles the PHP installation and compilation part, you need to have Nginx already up and running. PHP-FRM performs really as with Nginx so this is really good choise for highly responsive Web Site. First you need to get PHP sources.  The PHP version you want is 5.2.8 because there is PHP-FRM patch matching with that version.

  3. Linux, I am using Debian based Kubuntu, but any debian based distros should be fine
  4. Build tools
