All the files above are locate in /home/davidhhuan/Software 

1. Install the libevent-2.0.10-stable.tar.gz 

2. Install memcached-1.4.5.tar.gz 

3. Install memcache-2.2.6.tgz 

Ok, here i got these error:

That is because i am using xampp, and xampp does NOT provide these files which only exist in php directory! Thought I don’t want to install another php in my host, but i still have to compile it to get the files, please follow the step 4. 

4. Compile php5 

Too bad, when i try to compile the php5, that said i don’t have the libxml2! ok, see the step 5 

5. Install libxml2-2.7.2.tar.gz 

6. Install php-5.3.4 again 

7. Move the php files to xampp 

After step 6, the included php files are located in /usr/local/include, follow it 

8. Install memcache-2.2.6 again

OMG, i still met some errors:

Go, go, go, step 11 can help you! :) 

11. Install zlib-1.2.5.tar.gz 

12. Install memcache-2.2.6 again again again! 

13. Copy the memcache.so to xampp 

14. Configure the php.ini 

15. Configure the service of memcache

a. start the memcache server.

　　-d: set to daemon 

　　-m: max running memory, units:MB

　　-u: the user of memcached

　　-l: the server IP

　　-p: the port

　　-c: The maximum number of simultaneous connections running, default is 1024

　　-P: the file to save the memcache

b. stop the server.

You can also start multi thread to run the server, the port must be different. 

c. Restart the apache.
