how can I check whether Intel's AVX is enabled on my computer?

Question

I have tried many things but I cant seem to make it work. I am running CentOS6 64-bit. Latest NGINX version installed. I cannot seem to go to http://domain.com/phpmyadmin aftet switching from Apache. Please help, thanks.

Here is my Default.conf:

# The default server
#
server {
    listen       80 default_server;
    server_name  _;

    #charset koi8-r;

    #access_log  logs/host.access.log  main;

    location / {
        root   /var/www/html;
        index  login.php index.php;

    }

    error_page  404              /404.html;
    location = /404.html {
        root   /usr/share/nginx/html;
    }

    # redirect server error pages to the static page /50x.html
    #
    error_page   500 502 503 504  /50x.html;
    location = /50x.html {
        root   /usr/share/nginx/html;
    }

    # proxy the PHP scripts to Apache listening on 127.0.0.1:80
    #
    #location ~ \.php$ {
    #    proxy_pass   http://127.0.0.1;
    #}

    # pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000
    #
    location ~ \.php$ {
        root           /var/www/html;
        fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:9000;
        fastcgi_index  index.php;
        fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  /scripts$fastcgi_script_name;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /var/www/html$fastcgi_script_name;
        include        fastcgi_params;
    }

    # deny access to .htaccess files, if Apache's document root
    # concurs with nginx's one
    #
    #location ~ /\.ht {
    #    deny  all;
    #}
}

EDIT: FIXED

Moved the PHPMYADMIN folder from /usr/share to my web directory.

Solution 1

According to Microsoft this will only be supported under Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (slightly offtopic but factual) which is due out this month. I can't find any detail as to enabling/disabling it - I assume it'll be on by default and your code needs to be written to use it. Maybe somebody else will have some insight on this?

Solution 2

To enable or disable AVX instructions you can use this commands:

Enable AVX: bcdedit /set xsavedisable 0

Disable AVX: bcdedit /set xsavedisable 1

Open your command prompt and type it, then hit the enter button.

when the phpmyadmin package is updated you won't get the updates, because that folder isn't managed by the update manager.

That would make sense. I wasn't aware of the fact that the current version doesn't yet support it - I programatically checked for AVX support and realised it's set to off, and my initial interpretation was that it was a bug in my code. Thanks.
