Many thanks to Robin (robbat2), Seemant, Klieber, robh (or is it tigger now? 
lol ;-) and everyone else who's made me feel welcome during the last few 
weeks.

I've committed turck-mmcache 2.3.19 for testing.  This is a high-performance 
(and GPL'd ;-) PHP accelerator.  The original ebuild was submitted as bug 
#23360 by Klavs Klavsen.  Please take it out for a spin, and let me know how 
you get on.

If mmcache installs fine, but mysteriously doesn't work at all (no output in 
phpinfo(), /usr/share/turck-mmcache/mmcache.php says that it's not 
installed), please add a comment to bug #24792.

Best regards,
Stu

Access denied?!?  A most unexpected error ;-)

Some questions, which may help:

* Does /var/cache exist on your machine?  
* Have you setup additional ACLs or other security settings to prevent root
  from creating directories?  
* Is /var mounted read-only?  
* You *are* running the emerge as root, aren't you? ;-)

Best regards,

That's probably the sandbox, if I'm not missing something here.

Stu, (apologies was reply, not reply to all)

(Being my first contribution here, dont hesitate to correct me)

But won't the sandbox still be in effect during src_install() especially
if userpriv and usersandbox features are used during emerge?. I would've
thought /var/cache/mmcache should be made ${D}/var/cache/mmcache etc.
insinto is fine as it respects the image root, but the mkdir will be
trying to create /var/cache/mmcache on your _live_ filesystem, not the
sandboxed image.

As I said, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Regards, Mike.

I've committed a patch from Mike Gardiner which hopefully will fix the problem 
for you.  I'll make sure that I test all future ebuilds using the sandbox 
feature too ;-)

I appreciate the feedback on the ebuild!

Best regards,

I did the following and all worked fine.

1 - sync
2 - re-emerge
3 - cp mmcache.php to webroot
4 - restart apache
5 - test phpinfo


> I appreciate the feedback on the ebuild!

My pleasure.

Incidentally, where can I get a bulky php example that would allow me to 
test the differences in speed between cached and non-cached php?  At the 
moment, I can't really tell whether it has made any difference.

With regards.

I could be wrong, but as far as I know, upgrading php or mod_php doesn't 
directly overwrite any of your php.ini files.  So the settings in 
/etc/php/*/php.ini should be preserved.

I have a new issue for you.  When I upgraded php and mod_php on ~x86 
recently as part of an update and then visited mmcache.php on webserver 
I was told turck-mmcache is not installed.  After re-emerging 
turck-mmcache all was back to normal.

Does this mean that with every upgrade of php or mod_php the settings 
for turck-mmcache will be lost in config files?  Can this be prevented 
so that settings are preserved?

With regards.
