The query log on the database server tells me that there are around 20-30 seconds between each data request from the webserver to the database server. Accessing the same database from another server, Apache/CGI/Mysql or even through the mysql command line is fast, and there are no 20-30 sec delays.
Apache & PHP are the default x86-64 rpm packages that comes with CentOS 5.1:
httpd-devel-2.2.3-11.el5_1.centos.3 httpd-2.2.3-11.el5_1.centos.3 httpd-manual-2.2.3-11.el5_1.centos.3 httpd-devel-2.2.3-11.el5_1.centos.3
php-mbstring-5.1.6-15.el5 php-ldap-5.1.6-15.el5 php-cli-5.1.6-15.el5 php-gd-5.1.6-15.el5 php-common-5.1.6-15.el5 php-5.1.6-15.el5 php-pdo-5.1.6-15.el5 php-mysql-5.1.6-15.el5 php-pear-1.4.9-4
The php.ini file is located in the /etc/ folder.
I also have the same identical site accessing the same database on the same mysql server, running on a CentOS4 server without any problem. Reason for switching server is that I need PHP5 support, and as the CentOS4 based server is a production server, I cannot compile PHP5 from source and use that on the server. I have It is a mystery ;)
I'm starting to wonder if this is a broken hardware issue...

To: "CentOS mailing list" centos@centos.org Date: Monday, June 9, 2008, 1:03 PM If it's a table listing check your MySQL settings. How have you set up my.cnf? What does your slow query log tell you? Have you logged into your MySQL server from another machine and ran queries from there? Have you enabled verbose logging for PHP and Apache? Are you tailing all 3 while you run the query from phpadmin? One of them will say something interesting.
I think your issue smells like something in how you compiled PHP or a setting in php.ini itself.
Put a test.php in the doc-root and see what it tells you it's using. (re; mysql & the php version & the location of the php.ini) I've done installs where I had conflicting libs from both PHP and MySQL. Also I get stupid locations for php.ini all the time and have to manaully move that file to the correct location.
[root@altair htdocs]# cat test.php
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
<? var_dump($GLOBALS['_PHPA']); ?>
I generally compile everything when I do a similar install
- and give
explicit declarations to where the apxs is for PHP as well as the root mysql libraries. Check that everything is where you think it is.
*from recent installation of vtiger: (for example)
APACHE 2

XCACHE (this is the PHP accelerator we're using)
*you'll have to force it to see the non-standard install locations we're using. =============== Make a build directory: mkdir xcache-build cd src/xcache-build/ phpize --clean && phpize env CPPFLAGS="-I/data/CRM/php-5.2.5/include -I/data/CRM/apache2/include" LDFLAGS="-L/data/CRM/php-5.2.5/lib -I/data/CRM/apache2/lib" CFLAGS="-O3 -fPIC" ../xcache-1.2.2/configure --prefix=/data/CRM/ --enable-xcache make make install
*You must re-install each time you upgrade or re-compile PHP make distclean && phpize --clean && phpize (now continue w/ original instructions)
Locate a php.ini and copy it to /data/CRM/php-5.2.5/lib/php.ini Append the xcache options to this file: cd ../xcache-1.2.2 cat xcache.ini >> /etc/php.ini
Edit the php.ini to comply with the vtiger installation notes:

Hi.
Have you tried other protocols? Is it really only
http
transfers that are slow?
Yes. Ftp works perfectly, and regular http with
cgi/perl connections to the same database server works perfectly. Also rendering of standard HTML works as it should. It is only when a scripted site uses PHP/Mysql the connection to the server takes forever.
Have you tried pinging 100 times and see if you
get dropped
packets?
0% packet loss
Are there any errors from the netcards showing up
in log
files?
None.
I am really baffeled with this problem. I have no idea
what to do next. Have enabled server-status in Apache and when the scripted site is being access the cpu load is around 2.5%.

communicate with MySQL5. On this server,
PHP/Mysql
connections are dead
slow and unresponsive. It takes sometimes up
to a
minute to list tables
in phpmyadmin for example.
