Question : Hi techglimpse, thanks for answering my previous query on phpize. Now I’m stuck with another error while installing APC – pcre.h: No such file or directory. This error occurred when I used pecl command to install APC as below:
# pecl install apc ARNING: channel "pecl.php.net" has updated its protocols, use "pecl channel-upd ate pecl.php.net" to update downloading APC-3.1.13.tgz ... Starting to download APC-3.1.13.tgz (171,591 bytes) .....................................done: 171,591 bytes 55 source files, building running: phpize :::::::::::::::::::: running: make ::::::::::::::::::::
Below is the snapshot of the Error during ‘make’

Please help me to fix this error – Thanks Maneesh.
Solution:
The error means that you don’t have ‘pcre-devel‘ installed. Run the below command.
On CentOS, RHEL machine:
# yum install pcre-devel
On Ubuntu, Debian – use apt-get:
# apt-get install libpcre3-devThat should fix pcre.h not found error.
