Turck-MMCache
No clue if anyone has done this yet but I just shaved a tedious task that must be done after every php upgrade down to a 30 second job
Thought I would share it .
As many of you who run turck-mmcache know, every time you update php to a newer version, you must also re-compile turck-mmcache, which can be rather tedious to do by hand on every webserver.
Simple solution- a shell script.

Copy the code below and save it in your root directory ( root@server #[~] ) as a file named turck-installer (or any other name you wish)
Most likely you will have to copy and paste it into a text editor (vi pico, nano, joe, whatever) and save it as file Note , no extension
Next, chmod 755 the file to make it executable, and in order to run it, (after you upgrade php) simply type /root/turck-installer and presto!
Note that I wrote this specifically for a RedHat Linux server. Commands can be edited for other OS's It is for an UPGRADE. this does NOT install turck-mmcache for the first time, This is only for updating- you have to manually edit your php.ini file to enable the turck extension.
Code:
#!/bin/sh #Installs turck-mmcache 2.4.6 for php 4.x on a cpanel server (run from root) #Copyright @2004 Brian Gustin (www.controlhosting.net) #Released under the GNU General Public License http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html cd / rm -rf mmcache rm -rf /tmp/mmcache mkdir mmcache cd mmcache wget http://unc.dl.sourceforge.net/source...e-2.4.6.tar.gz tar xvzf turck-mmcache-2.4.6.tar.gz cd turck-mmcache-2.4.6 export PHP_PREFIX="/usr" $PHP_PREFIX/bin/phpize ./configure --enable-mmcache=shared --with-php-config=$PHP_PREFIX/bin/php-config make make install mkdir /tmp/mmcache chmod 0777 /tmp/mmcache /sbin/service httpd restart echo "mmcache is re-installed"
Hope it helps some of you save a little time during maintenance

Bri!
