Cherokee 号称是目前最快的Web 服务器软件，Cherokee 的功能包括支持 FastCGI、SCGI、PHP、CGI、TLS 及 SSL 加密连接，虚拟主机，授权认证，实时编码，载入均衡，与 Apache 兼容的 log 文件等等。Cherokee 内含一个名为 cherokee-admin 的工具，执行后，允许管理员直接通过浏览器进入 http://localhost:9090/ 对其进行管理和配置。比如，开启或关闭服务器，进行一般选项的设定，配置虚拟服务器、信息源、图标、Mime 类型等项目。

下面以centos 5.5 32位系统为例介绍如何安装cherokee php mysql。

一些相关设置

chmod +w /usr/local/mysql

chown -R mysql:mysql /usr/local/mysql

ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.so.16 /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.16

mkdir -p /var/mysql/

mkdir -p /var/mysql/data/

mkdir -p /var/mysql/log/

chown -R mysql:mysql /var/mysql/

cd support-files/

cp my-medium.cnf /var/mysql/my.cnf

cp mysql.server /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld

/usr/local/mysql/scripts/mysql_install_db \

--defaults-file=/var/mysql/my.cnf \

--basedir=/usr/local/mysql \

--datadir=/var/mysql/data \

--user=mysql

chmod +x /etc/init.d/mysqld

vi /etc/init.d/mysqld（编辑此文件，查找并修改以下变量内容：）

basedir=/usr/local/mysql

datadir=/var/mysql/data

chkconfig --add mysqld

chkconfig --level 345 mysqld on

service mysqld start

/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin password [new-password]

安装PHP

安装必要软件包

yum -y install libxml2-devel openssl-devel curl-devel libjpeg-devel libpng-devel autoconf pcre-devel libtool-libs freetype-devel gd libmcrypt-devel zlib-devel zip unzip gettext

开始安装php

cd /tmp

groupadd www

useradd -s /sbin/nologin -g www www

wget -c http://cn2.php.net/get/php-5.3.8.tar.gz/from/this/mirror

tar xzvf php-5.3.8.tar.gz

cd php-5.3.8

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php --enable-fpm --with-fpm-user=www --with-fpm-group=www --with-config-file-path=/etc --with-config-file-scan-dir=/etc/php.d --with-libxml-dir --with-openssl --with-zlib --with-curl --enable-ftp --with-gd --with-jpeg-dir --with-png-dir --with-zlib-dir --with-freetype-dir --enable-gd-native-ttf --with-gettext --enable-mbstring --with-mcrypt --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config --without-pear

make && make install

cp php.ini-production /etc/php.ini

cp sapi/fpm/init.d.php-fpm /etc/init.d/php-fpm

cp sapi/fpm/php-fpm.conf /usr/local/php/etc/php-fpm.conf

编辑php-fpm.conf，找到如下字段，删除前面的”;”号

pid = run/php-fpm.pid

pm.start_servers = 20

pm.min_spare_servers = 5

pm.max_spare_servers = 35

找到：

listen = 127.0.0.1:9000

改为：

listen = /tmp/php-cgi.sock

chmod 755 /etc/init.d/php-fpm

chkconfig --add php-fpm

chkconfig --level 345 php-fpm on

/etc/init.d/php-fpm start

安装cherokee

yum -y install rrdtool

groupadd www

useradd -s /sbin/nologin -g www www

wget http://www.cherokee-project.com/cherokee-latest-tarball -O -| tar zxvf -

cd cherokee-1.2.101

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/cherokee --with-wwwroot=/home/www --with-wwwuser=www --with-wwwgroup=www

make && make install

wget http://www.centos.bz/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/cherokee -O /etc/init.d/cherokee

chmod +x /etc/init.d/cherokee

chkconfig --add cherokee

chkconfig --level 345 cherokee on

ln -s /usr/local/cherokee/sbin/cherokee-admin /usr/sbin/

service cherokee start

现在你已经可以访问默认的chreokee页面，执行cherokee-admin -b命令得到后台密码，并通过localhost:9090进入后台。
