If it says: "No releases available for package ...", you will need to install php-dev package to get the necessary PHP5 source files to compile additional modules.
Run apt-get install php-dev
You can specify specific version: apt-get install php8.0-dev
If you see "make: not found", you need to have make installed
Run sudo apt-get install build-essential
If you see: "WARNING: channel 'pecl.php.net' has updated its protocols":
Run pecl channel-update pecl.php.net
If you see: "Missing sql.h", you will need to install unixodbc-dev package.
Run apt-get install -y unixodbc-dev
I'm guessing you're missing the last package, which is necessary for pecl command to install the PHP drivers.
If it still does not work, please update the complete error message.

Using pecl install -n solr gives
No releases available for package "pecl.php.net/solr"
install failed
Also tried pear install pecl/solr which gives the same output :
No releases available for package "pecl.php.net/solr"
install failed
I'm using a Mac and php56.

Another important piece of information is that, pear and pecl were not available in my system, so I installed them using
sudo php /usr/lib/php/install-pear-nozlib.phar -d /usr/local/lib/php -b /usr/local/bin
Update
Tried sudo pecl install -n solr and now it seems to go one step further
Cannot find autoconf. Please check your autoconf installation and the
$PHP_AUTOCONF environment variable. Then, rerun this script.
ERROR: phpize failed
Luckily stumbled upon
PEAR package install fails
which led to execute
pear list-upgrades which showed some kind of permission issue with cache directory, manually created the directory using sudo at the specified location (/private/tmp/pear/cache)
And then used sudo to install the solr extension as sudo pecl install -n solr which threw the following error :
Cannot find autoconf. Please check your autoconf installation and the
$PHP_AUTOCONF environment variable. Then, rerun this script.
brew install autoconf followed by sudo pecl install solr worked.
PHP and Mongo are working correctly however the php5-mongo extension needs updating.
Currently it is version 1.4.5, version 1.5.x is required to be compatible with the latest https://github.com/doctrine/mongodb/
Running does not update the version.
sudo apt-get install php5-mongo
Additional info
mongod --version db version v2.6.12
php --version PHP 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.14
How can the extension be updated? Is pecl required to perform the update?
Try with PECL
sudo pecl install mongodb
Sometime you may get SSL error when connecting to the mongodb so please install dependencies before the pecl installation
sudo pecl channel-update pecl.php.net
sudo pecl uninstall mongodb
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev pkg-config libssl-dev
sudo pecl install mongodb
You should add "extension=mongodb.so" to php.ini
Verify the MongoDB extension and module by using
sudo php --ri mongodb | grep version
sudo apt-cache policy php-mongodb
I had a Yii installation that was working fine up until today. I installed updates on my machine today after which this error was being thrown on all pages:
PHP Fatal Error – yii\base\ErrorException
Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function yii\web\mb_strlen() in /application/vendor/yiisoft/yii2/web/ErrorHandler.php:404
I ran composer update but the error persists.
I am using yii 2.0.7 on PHP 7 on Ubuntu 14.04. How do I fix this?
The error is a bit of a red herring since mb_strlen() is actually part of the mbstring php extension and not a function in yii2.
In php5 mbstring was part of libapache2-mod-php5.
It seems to be missing from libapache2-mod-php7. To fix this install the php7.x-mbstring package where x is your version:
sudo apt install php7.x-mbstring
You may need to restart Apache after this install.
For PHP7.1
Debian flavours
sudo apt-get install php7.1-mbstring
RedHat flavours
sudo yum install php7.1-mbstring
CentOS/RHEL-based
To get a list of available modules to check the version you need is available:
yum search mbstring
Installing mbstring module:
sudo yum install php-mbstring
This will install the correct version for you for your current php installation.
I want to install the v8js extension for PHP5.5 on Ubuntu 12.04 but can't make it working.
When I try to install the v8js extension version 0.2.0 (latest) with PECL, I have this message:
configure: error: libv8 must be version 3.24.6 or greater
ERROR: `/tmp/pear/temp/v8js/configure --with-v8js' failed
If I try to install an old version, I have a compilation error. This message is very similar to my issue: Install v8js for php on ubuntu
How can I fix this issue?
EDIT: I couldn't install it on Ubuntu 14.04 with PHP5.5, even with a PHP downgrade with PHPbrew to PHP 5.4. However, using Ubuntu 12.04 with PHP 5.4 works great. I didn't try the downgrade from PHP 5.5 to 5.4 on Ubuntu 12.04.
in case you can't find libv8-dev or libv8-dbg, you can find the correct version by run command
~$ apt-cache search libv8
libv8-3.14-dbg - V8 JavaScript engine - debugging symbols
libv8-3.14-dev - V8 JavaScript engine - development files for 3.14 branch
libv8-3.14.5 - V8 JavaScript engine - runtime library
libv8-dev - V8 JavaScript engine - development files for latest branch
then you can run
~$ sudo apt-get install libv8-3.14-dev libv8-3.14-dbg g++ cpp
then you can try to install v8js via pecl by running
~$ sudo pecl install v8js-0.2.0
if that command return error like this
configure: error: libv8 must be version 3.24.6 or greater
ERROR: `/tmp/pear/temp/v8js/configure --with-v8js' failed
you can try to install v8js-0.1.3 instead by running
~$ sudo pecl install v8js-0.1.3
then edit your php.ini to add v8js extension
~$ echo "extension=v8js.so" >> /etc/php5/cli/php.ini
Open your terminal/console
sudo apt-get install libv8-dev libv8-dbg g++ cpp
Make an update sudo apt-get update
Try sudo pecl install v8js-0.2.0 (or other version i.e.: sudo pecl install v8js-0.1.3)
Edit your php.ini (Check: Where is my php.ini file?) file by adding: extension=v8js.so.
Restart server
If it the extension still doesn't work, try to edit /etc/php5/conf.d/v8js.ini and add extension=v8js.so and restart server again.
Hope this helps.
These other answers work well and I used v8js-0.1.3 for the past 1.5 years but after needing to upgrade to PHP 7 I needed a better solution as v0.1.3 doesn't compile with PHP 7 (something to do with php_smart_str being renamed to php_smart_string).
After a couple hours of frustrating research and compiling libv8 myself, I didn't want to have to go through this whole process on every server I provisioned.
Anyway, I found this site which points you to a launchpad PPA site that provides a couple different ubuntu packages with the 5.1 and 5.2 libv8 libraries.
I ran these commands (please don't add repositories of 3rd party devs without understanding the risks).
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:pinepain/libv8-5.2
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libv8-5.2-dev
sudo pecl install v8js-1.1.0
(Thanks #JeyKeu for suggesting to add "apt-get update" to these commands)
I couldn't get v8js-1.3.0 or 1.2.0 to build, but 1.1.0 worked well. I checked the changelog and found that the latest updates are not necessary in my circumstance anyway.
I'm using Ubuntu Xampp (Lampp) and currently on MongoDB 1.5.3 driver.
I need to downgrade to 1.4.5, but when re-installed the downgraded driver, it does not change in phpinfo(). Yes, I have restarted Apache.
So, how do I uninstall the current one and install the downgraded version?
Update: 2018-06-20:
PECL package mongo is now deprecated, you should use mongodb package instead:
sudo pecl install -f mongodb-1.4.4
Original answer
You can upgrade to a specific version of a driver by using pecl:
sudo pecl install -f mongo-1.4.5
If you get a pecl: command not found error you will need to install PEAR package:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install php-pear
You can use this command to check that you have the correct version installed:
sudo pecl info mongo
Or you can check php configuration directly with:
php -i | grep -A 1 MongoDB
