Your choices are: 1) Pull and replace all required packages for PHP and PHP-MSQL using the EPEL or REMI repo to replace them (as in this example): http://www.andresmontalban.com/update-centos-5-php-5-1-to-php-5-3/ being sure to change the last line to "# yum –-enablerepo=remi update php php-* mysql" Then build your source including Sphinx. 2) Pull and compile from source php to mysql with mysql-devel included. Have you tried to just use the Percona repo and install their binaries (won't provide Sphinx of course) but it's sweet? http://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/5.5/installation.html > Eric > > > On Feb 12, 2012, at 4:57 PM, Lisa Kachold wrote: > > Has anyone used Percona? > > http://www.percona.com/software/ > > > - Percona Server with XtraDBis our database server, with high performance and scalability > - Percona XtraBackupis the world's only open-source hot backup solution for InnoDB and XtraDB > - Percona XtraDB is > our high-performance storage engine for MySQL, based on InnoDB > - Percona XtraDB Clusteris a new high availability and high scalability solution for MySQL users. > - Percona Data Recovery Tool for InnoDBis a set of tools for recovering data from InnoDB's data files > - The tcprstat tool is a TCP response-time analysis tool > - Percona LogJamis a high-performance workload reproduction tool > - Percona Tools includes clones > of the standard TPC-C and TCP-E benchmarks designed for MySQL > - The benchworks toolis a framework for rapidly creating benchmarks and analyzing the results > - Percona Toolkit is a collection of advanced command-line tools used by Percona support > staff to perform a variety of MySQL and system tasks that are too difficult > or complex to perform manually > > It's pretty impressive. > > > > > > > -- > (503) 754-4452 Android > (623) 239-3392 Skype > (623) 688-3392 Google Voice > ** > it-clowns.com > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------- > PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us > To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: > http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss > > > --------------------------------------------------- > PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us > To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: > http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss > -- (503) 754-4452 Android (623) 239-3392 Skype (623) 688-3392 Google Voice ** it-clowns.com
