Do not install 3rd party .deb's as they may contain rootkits and virus. Especially without https or checksums.

Hi. After I did the installation, the thread is successfully configured, but the localhost mysql driver stopped working.

Error: A Database connection using "Mysql" was missing or unable to connect. The database server returned this error: Selected driver is not enabled
Error: Mysql driver is NOT enabled

The interesting thing is that the localhost mysql connection works in the MySQL Workbench. Can you help me?

Thanks!

Hello.

I had a few issues with your commands:

1. With the 5.6 version of php, the compilation failed because the "Zend/zend_inheritance.h" file was missing. I solved it by switching to the version 7.x.
2. There is a typo: git clone https://github.com/krakjoe/apcu and not apcu.

Finally, the thread works properly.
I have a question though: how to tell apache to use this version of php? I suppose installing the package libapache2-mod-php5 won't work?

Edit: My bad, the procedure already binds this version of php. However, I have an other issue: Apache doesn't interprets php at all, and I have this error in CGI:

root@machine:/var/www/html# php-cgi-zts test.php 
PHP Fatal error:  The cgi-fcgi SAPI is not supported by pthreads in Unknown on line 0
PHP Fatal error:  Unable to start pthreads module in Unknown on line 0
