Build Matching PHP Binary - Help required please.

[BBUK]

Hi all,

New to the forum & Litespeed.

I have very little knowledge with litespeed and servers so I'm hoping you lot can advise me, I managed to install and get it working so that's a good start.

I'd like to use the same PHP setup that we had with using Apache.

I've tried going to WHM panel > LiteSpeed Web Server Plugin for WHM > Build Matching PHP Binary.

------------------
Found Apache php binary at /usr/local/bin/php. Version is 5.2.8
Found LiteSpeed php binary at /opt/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp5. Version is 4.4.9

PHP binary has different version!
------------------

------------------

==============================================
Start building PHP 5.2.8 with LSAPI
==============================================
Wed Mar 25 02:24:09 GMT 2009

Changing to build directory /home/cpeasyapache/ls.src
Detected php build directory for cPanel /home/cpeasyapache/src/php-5.2.8
Same source code will be copied over

Query lastest LSAPI version: 4.9
php-litespeed-4.9.tgz already downloaded, use the saved copy
Extracting LSAPI archive: tar -xzf php-litespeed-4.9.tgz

Please help


Thanks, Tom

tar: gzip: Cannot exec: No such file or directory

gzip is not available on this server?

Hi,

Thanks for reply, I'm not too sure if server has Gzip or not? it's an unmanaged VPS, I can ask the providers support and find out.

[BBUK]

Hi, they say Gzip would be a standard part of our CentOS installation.

[mistwang]

Maybe your VPS is out of memory when try to build it. So, you may need to stop Apache or other memory hungry processes before start building it.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

I've tried doing the rebuild php while Litespeed is switched on, and also have tried switching back to Apache but still gives the same message.

There's a few hundred MB memory spare while trying.. is this enough?

WTF? no gzip on your VPS?

to find your current path and gzip binary location try:

echo $PATH

whereis gzip

locate gzip

then post result here

you may force re-install gzip RPM:

rpm -Uvh http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/i386/CentOS/gzip-1.3.5-10.el5.centos.i386.rpm

should I force install?
