Install phpredis

After installing redis, let further install the php package for apache or nginx.
To download and compile phpredis:

git clone https://github.com/phpredis/phpredis
cd phpredis
phpize
./configure
make && make install

Include the compiled extension to php.ini:

touch /etc/php.d/redis.ini
echo extension=redis.so > /etc/php.d/redis.ini

If you use Apache (httpd), restart by:

systemctl restart httpd.service

If you use nginx, restart it by:

systemctl restart php-fpm.service
systemctl restart nginx.service

Install Nginx (and PHP) server on Fedora

Nginx [engine x] is a free high-perfomance HTTP and reverse proxy server, as well as a mail proxy server, written by Igor Sysoev.

Lets start the installation process:
Stop and disable existing apache.

# systemctl stop httpd.service
# systemctl disable httpd.service 

Install php-fpm

# yum install php-fpm -y

Enable and start php-fpm service:

# systemctl enable php-fpm.service
# systemctl start php-fpm.service

To install Nginx

# yum install nginx -y

Enable and start Nginx service

# systemctl enable nginx.service
# systemctl start nginx.service

Test Nginx

Open up your web browser and navigate to http://localhost/ (example). You will see the default nginx welcome screen.

Configure Nginx

Open the file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf in vi

# vi /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

Set the worker_processes (No. Of CPU’s in your system you want to utilise). To see the no. Of CPU’s, you can use the command “lscpu”. For default you can set to 1.
worker_processes 1;

Example of working nginx.conf:
