Lighttpd and apccache / eaccelerator

Are there any HOW-TOs out there?

I can get either of them compiled and linked in php.ini but I can't seem to get it to work outside of ssh - I'll have one of them show up in phpinfo but not nothing comes up when I look at phpinfo via the web server.

Thoughts?

Edit: Problem solved -- I had to kill off any lingering php processes running as CGI - thanks to a thread Erwin posted in I clued in that may be something to try.

You compile eAccelerator for PHP not a webserver.

Btw, I switched from lighttpd to Apache 2.x - lighttpd may be fast but it doesn't handle heavy loads well - it kept crashing for me. So I now run Apache 2, PHP 5, with APC - works very well.

I'm using lighttpd and I had 3100 users on my Dual Xeon 2.8 and 2GB RAM (1.4m posts). Ran smooth with a load of ~10. Had about 100GB traffic that day.
