Is it possible to run APC on PHP 5.3.6/IIS/Windows 2008?

The problem is that no binary I could find worked, the APC section never appears in the info display and the apc monitor states that APC is not running.

Is there a way to make APC + PHP + IIS work?

Thank you

You need a fitting library.

Be aware of the version number though. From your phpinfo() or php -i you can find out which version you need:

There are three different factors:

  • 32bit vs 64bit
  • VC6 vs VC9 (Visual Studio Compiler version)

If you are using PHP with Apache 1 or Apache2 from apache.org you need to use the VC6 versions of PHP

If you are using PHP with IIS you should use the VC9 versions of PHP

VC6 Versions are compiled with the legacy Visual Studio 6 compiler

VC9 Versions are compiled with the Visual Studio 2008 compiler and have improvements in performance and stability. The VC9 versions require you to have the Microsoft 2008 C++ Runtime (x86) or the Microsoft 2008 C++ Runtime (x64) installed

See: http://windows.php.net/

  • Thread safe vs Non thread safe. (TS/NTS)
php -i|grep VC
Compiler => MSVC9 (Visual C++ 2008)
Zend Extension Build => API220090626,TS,VC9
PHP Extension Build => API20090626,TS,VC9

I usually get them here (32bits): http://downloads.php.net/pierre/

or here (64bits): http://www.anindya.com/

In theory yes, but you will need, as you already know, a fitting binary. I think the problem is not so much IIS but rather windows in general - its also a pain to get an APC DLL working with Apache under windows.

So in short: if you spend much time compiling it yourself, you might succeed, but I do not know anybody who actually succeeded.
