Disable it.

(bystander question who’s interested in opcode caching for revolution)
which versions of php & eAccl’ are you on?

Ah, I misread; when I said "Do it"; I meant "disable" it.

Disable eAccelerator during install. It should run fine during normal Revo usage.

I understood what you meant. =)

oori: PHP 5.3.1 (the latest)

This program makes use of the Zend Scripting Language Engine:
Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2009 Zend Technologies
with eAccelerator v0.9.6-rc1, Copyright (c) 2004-2007 eAccelerator, by eAccelerator
with the ionCube PHP Loader v3.3.7, Copyright (c) 2002-2009, by ionCube Ltd.

This is moot as I changing to suPHP .. to see what happens. My host tech sppt said:

I would say the best selling point for suPHP is the fact that it offers greater security because of the fact you’re running PHP as a user as opposed to the default Apache user ’nobody’. It is much hard for attackers to know which user to run code under when they are attempt to exploit your site. Besides this fact, suPHP will offer you the ability t streamline your server’s permissions across the board which in turn helps with maintaining security.

Since your switching to suPHP, eAccelerator will not run regardless is if it is set in the php.ini file. I have also disabled it via SSH by placing a ’;’ in front of the eaccelerator settings in the ’/usr/lib/php,ini’ file via SSH.
