Try the following:

sudo apt-get install libvirt-dev xsltproc libxml2-dev libxml2  
cd ~ 
git clone git://libvirt.org/libvirt-php.git libvirt-php  
cd libvirt-php  
sudo sh autogen.sh  
sudo ./configure  
sudo make  
sudo make install  
sudo service apache2 restart

To verify it's installed run the following command

php -m | grep libvirt

You should see libvirt in the output.

Could you tell me how to create a new domain? From PHP API Reference guide: (libvirt.org/php/api-reference.html) I have seen these functions: (i) libvirt_image_create($conn, $name, $size, $format) (ii) libvirt_domain_new($conn, $name, $arch, $memMB, $maxmemMB, $vcpus, $iso_image, $disks, $networks, $flags) (iii) libvirt_domain_create($res) (iv) libvirt_domain_create_xml($conn, $xml) The problem I am facing is that i dont know the steps to create a new domain. Either I have to create a new image first using libvirt_image_create .... or something else. – Alee Jun 29 '12 at 8:17
