APC module causing strange error

Question

When I run php -v

I get:

PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib64/php/modules/apc.so' - /usr/lib64/php/modules/apc.so: undefined symbol: php_pcre_exec in Unknown on line 0

This isn't my first rodeo. I've setup APC multiple times. This is a MediaTemple Dedicated Virtual 4.0 with Plesk 11. Plesk 11 is the only thing essentially different from the other servers I've set this up on.

I've verified that pcre-devel is installed. I've compiled APC from source as well as used pecl to install it. No difference.

I also tried downgrading to APC 3.0.19, with no love.

Why not just use the packages provided by the distribution (and you forgot to mention which you're using)? — Michael Hampton, Sep 11 '12 at 13:23
It's CentSO 6. If there are any yum packages for this, I haven't seen them. — clifgriffin, Sep 11 '12 at 13:39
For whatever, reason, it's not in my repos. "No package php-pecl-apc available." (please let me know if I'm missing something obvious...not an expert on this stuff) — clifgriffin, Sep 11 '12 at 15:04
It has extension=apc.so. The issue is that the module fails to load. — clifgriffin, Sep 11 '12 at 15:57

First install the pecl package from yum repo and then use the below command to install the apc.

pecl install apc

that's it.

Yes, I used that method. As I said above "I've compiled APC from source as well as used pecl to install it. No difference." – clifgriffin Sep 11 '12 at 15:09
