Is Sun going to buy PHP too?(PHP Quebec 2008)

on Friday, March 14th, 2008

It was good 2 days at PHP Quebec Conf here in Montreal.

A lot of great sessions!!!!
My highlights:
- Great session by Eli White – High Performance PHP & MySQL.
- Really nice 2 sessions by Marc Wandschneider (The I18N and memcached sessions)
Some sessions I’ve attended were really really bad. I’m not going to name names :P
But overall, I guess it was worth taking 2 days from work and going to the php conf.

PHP APC apc_shm_create error on CLI

on Tuesday, March 11th, 2008

If you’re getting an error like this one below on Windows PHP commandline make sure that you are not running an apache server that uses apc on the same machine!

[apc-error] apc_shm_create: shmget(0, 8388608, 658) failed: No error. It is possible that the chosen SHM segment size is higher than the operation system allows. Linux has usually a default limit of 32MB per segment.

This was hard to figure! Tested with PHP 5.2.5, APC 3.1.0-dev.
