Hello Guys,<br>
<br>
I'm searching for some step by step instructions for the
installation of Varnish, but I'm finding so many variations, it's
making my head spin!<br>
<br>
I have a VPS running CENTOS 6.8 x86_64 virtuozzo. I found this
resource which looks fairly straightforward as I do have cPanel/WHM
-
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://support.qualityunit.com/496090-How-to-install-Varnish-with-CPanel-and-CentOS-to-cache-static-content-on-server">https://support.qualityunit.com/496090-How-to-install-Varnish-with-CPanel-and-CentOS-to-cache-static-content-on-server</a><br>
<br>
I know I would need to change the "rpm -Uvh
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://repo.varnish-cache.org/redhat/varnish-3.0/el5/noarch/varnish-release-3.0-1.noarch.rpm">http://repo.varnish-cache.org/redhat/varnish-3.0/el5/noarch/varnish-release-3.0-1.noarch.rpm</a>"
to get the latest version, but not sure what the correct syntax for
that would be?<br>
<br>
However, I've now seen this reference -
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.saotn.org/install-varnish-cache-on-centos-6-7/">https://www.saotn.org/install-varnish-cache-on-centos-6-7/</a> which
says that Varnish relies on Jemalloc and says it should be
installed! What the heck is Jemalloc? I can't see it mentioned
anywhere else online in regards to installing Varnish. I found a
mention of it in the Wiki though -
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.varnish-software.com/wiki/search.html?q=Jemalloc&check_keywords=yes&area=default">https://www.varnish-software.com/wiki/search.html?q=Jemalloc&check_keywords=yes&area=default</a><br>
<br>
Looking at the FAQ in Wiki I can see that the following packages are
also required in order for Varnish to work - <br>
<pre>autoconf
automake
jemalloc-devel
libedit-devel
libtool
ncurses-devel
pcre-devel
pkgconfig
python-docutils
python-sphinx
graphviz
Navigation on a server is not my strong point. Are the packages likely to be referenced in one location? In other words, how do I find out if I've already got them?
Hope someone can advise.
Myles
