Enable XML-RPC on Xampp - php

I'm working on a project and I need to connect to Odoo via XML-RPC. The documentation suggests using Ripcord library, and for this I need to enable XML-RPC on my enviroment, but I've got no clue how to do this. I've been googleing for the last couple of days but couldnt find answers on a similar setting that I could understand.
Im working on XAMPP for Mac, and the PHP version is 8.0
Thanks in advance.

You can try download xmlrpc extension in pecl website and install the compatible dll into your xampp.
Go to https://pecl.php.net/package/xmlrpc and download the dll
Copy the .dll file to your xampp/php/ext folder
Add this text to your php.ini
extension=php_xmlrpc.dll
Restart apache service
Done

You can try to install xmlrpc extension with following commands:
git clone https://git.php.net/repository/pecl/networking/xmlrpc.git
export CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/include/libxml2/
cd xmlrpc && phpize && ./configure --with-expat && make && make install
echo "extension=xmlrpc.so" > /etc/php/8.0/mods-available/xmlrpc.ini
That's how I installed it on my Ubuntu.
Also you can check this if you don't know how to compile extensions on OS X

Install PHP 7.0 Internationalization extension (Intl) on XAMPP on Mac

I followed the instructions outlined here:
Install PHP Internationalization extension (Intl) on XAMPP on Mac
Ran sudo pecl install intl
selected the correct files from the Cellar
then this error happened:
/private/tmp/pear/temp/intl/intl_error.h:24:10: fatal error:
'ext/standard/php_smart_str.h' file not found
include
^ 1 error generated. make: *** [php_intl.lo] Error 1 ERROR: `make' failed
No matter, did some research and found out that PHP 7.0.8 deprecated php.smart_str.h to php.smart_string.h
So given my scant knowledge of C++ I copied smart_string.h to smart_str.h and renamed all the headers from STRING to string.....
re-ran pecl -no luck....more errors......without knowing where the .c files are and remaking php (not really interested in going that far) since anyway I'm using XAMPP so that ended that option.
I have php 5.5 on my mac, deep in the usr/local/bin folder
so next step was to get pecl to use those files and generate an intl.so file....
Did that....I have the intl.so file so put it in the 'extensions' folder in XAMPP (for reference: /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20151012)
Ran php and came up with this error:
Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library
'/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20151012/intl.so'
- dlopen(/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20151012/intl.so,

Expected in: flat namespace in
/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20151012/intl.so
in Unknown on line 0
I imagine it has to do with different versions?
In any case I can't get pecl to install intl without a make error in PHP 7.0.8 on XAMPP. There is no documentation on this and you'd think that if you deprecate a header.h file you'd update all extensions?
Install intl.so in PHP 7 seems impossible?
After a lot of research I was finally able to resolve this. Detailed steps here:
before you begin, check which php path is set. it should be /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/php. If not you can change it by PATH="/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin:${PATH}". more detail here
Overall idea is to build the intl-extension from PHP source code on your own. Before you begin make sure you have installed Xcode. Also, install the latest version of autoconf. this might help:
brew install autoconf
Next download the version of PHP you use in XAMPP from php.net. I am using 7.1.18. This version worked for me: php-7.1.31, I’m guessing if you follow the steps it might work for 7.0 or 7.2 as well. Do let me know if it does or doesnt, I’ll update this post. Do not use PHP 7.3 for Magento 2.3.0, it is not supported.
Extract the tar.gz file using (I extracted it inside ~/Downloads/ folder )
tar -xzvf php-7.1.31.tar.gz
cd into the extracted folder
cd php-7.1.31
change to subfolder ext/intl
cd ext/intl/
Run these commands to build the extension
/Applications/XAMPP/bin/phpize
./configure --enable-intl --with-php-config=/Applications/XAMPP/bin/php-config --with-icu-dir=/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/
make
sudo make install
you can now delete all files you downloaded and also the extracted folders.
Open /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/etc/php.ini , and add extension=intl.so
Restart your Apache using XAMPP GUI and it should work.
So far, it seems that extension intl.so for php is bundled with php
and should be compiled with php (intl --enabled). XAMPP does not support this (as of Oct 2016), MAMP does. I do not know about other distros. However, if you're willing to recompile PHP 7, it's worth it just to do that and enable it during compiling.
So....I ran with MAMP. Then I decided that I would simply install apache 2.4 and php 7 and Mysql without the stack and the junk that comes with MAMP or XAMPP and everything works like a charm... so if you need to use CakePHP or intl support etc... just drop XAMPP/MAMP and go with a standard install. I used homebrew (MacOS) and everything is working fine.
Update: As regards Windows, XAMPP does not default it, but you can add the module (dll) in php.ini and works like a charm
The error means that XAMPP doesn't have PHP compiled with intl. You may try:
pecl install intl
but probably it won't work as well.
See: PHP Bug #72879 Pecl install intl make error with PHP 7.0.8.
As for the workaround, try installing memcached extension instead of memcache, e.g.
pecl install memcached
Note: It also requires libmemcached package/library to be installed beforehand. For macOS, install via: brew install libmemcached.
If you wanna try without homebrew, with native apache and php, look at my aswer here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/55131868/3692846

Update/Upgrade PHP MongoDB driver

Im currently running Php MongoDb version 1.2.10 and I'm wanting to update this version to the most recent/stable.
How would one go about doing this? Im assuming it would be via terminal and using pear or pecl command?
Any Help or advice is greatly appreciated :)
Update :
I did the following within terminal to install the latest version
sudo pecl install mongo
Which has installed version 1.5.6. But after restarting my MAMP server the extension is still stating 1.2.10. Is there something I need to change in my php.ini file? I have already added extension=mongo.so
If you ran sudo pecl install mongo, you likely upgraded the driver for the system install of PHP, which is in a different path than MAMP. There should be a pecl binary within the MAMP path (e.g. /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.x.x/bin), which should be run instead. You may find this blog article as helpful walk-through for the process.
sudo pecl upgrade mongodb worked for me today.

PHP class Libmemcached not found

I am transferring a PHP application 9running on apache) from Centos to Ubuntu. When I deploy the code on Ubuntu I get an error "Class Libmemcached not found".
When I compare phpinfo pages, I can see that the Centos one has "libmemcached" section, while the Ubuntu one has "memcached" section.
On both systems phpinfo has "memcache" (no "d" in the end) section.
It looks like my Centos PHP has "libmemcached" extension and my Ubuntu PHP doesn't. How can I download that extension? Or can I somehow just transfer the extension from my Centos system?
I found php-libmemcached repository on github ( https://github.com/kajidai/php-libmemcached ), that might be what I am looking for, but I don't know how to install it on Ubuntu.
Please help.
The libmemcached extension you are using isn't an official extension. I don't know were Centos get it from.
So I recommend to use/install the official memcached extension from PECL
and update your application.
Else you have to install the libmemcached extension from scratch with the following steps:
download from github
unpack the file
go into the new folder
phpize
./configure
make install
enable it within you php.ini
restart you webserver

Mac 10.6 - unable to install PHP intl

I'm trying to install the PHP intl extension on Mac 10.6 "Snow Leopard" using the following command:
sudo pecl install intl
...but getting the following errors:
running: phpize
grep: /usr/include/php/main/php.h: No such file or directory
grep: /usr/include/php/Zend/zend_modules.h: No such file or directory
grep: /usr/include/php/Zend/zend_extensions.h: No such file or directory

Zend Module Api No:
Zend Extension Api No:
Cannot find autoconf. Please check your autoconf installation and the
$PHP_AUTOCONF environment variable. Then, rerun this script.
ERROR: `phpize' failed
I am using the bundles Apache server with PHP 5.3.4.
Does anyone know how to install the intl extension?
Have you thought about using MAMP instead? It generally works better than Apple's bundled packages.
I've installed Zend Server CE and everything works 100%.
I removed Zend Server CE later on, and used this instead:
http://php-osx.liip.ch/ which is specifically built for Mac OSX 10.6, and Symfony2 in mind.
This worked better for me in the end, as I'm a Netbeans user, this means I can use xdebug bundled with the liip distribution.
I found it a bit cumbersome getting xdebug installed on Zend Server CE, and also, the liip PHP installation doesn't install an additional Apache and MySQL, it uses what is already included with the OS.
Try installing autoconf
brew install autoconf
Regards
This might be an old post, but for me, I found the easiest option was to install PHP using the liip service (http://php-osx.liip.ch/). Using one simple command, it installed the latest version of PHP, configured it with the existing apache server installed on my mac all along with the intl extension. A number of hours frustration solved in a couple of minutes!

Installing PHP OAuth in MAMP environment

I have tried following ALL tutorials out there on getting PHP OAuth extension installed under the MAMP environment, but can't get it to load for some reason.
I am using MAMP 1.9 with PHP 5.3.2
The most recent tutorial I was following was: http://lifeofadev.com/2011/03/09/mac-os-x-installing-oauth-so-into-xampp-mamp/
Does anyone else have experience with getting this to work?
Thanks!
Dennis
After upgrading to MAMP 2.0 for PHP 5.2.17 I followed these steps to install the oauth module through pecl
Download MAMP Server components and libraries Specifically you want php-5.2.17.tar.gz
Uncompress php-5.2.17.tar.gz to /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.2.17/include/php
Run configure against the downloaded php. Do not build it.
cd /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.2.17/include/php;
./configure
Remove broken pear config:
mv /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.2.17/conf/pear.conf /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.2.17/conf/pear.conf.bak
Compile oauth
cd /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.2.17/bin;
./pecl install oauth
Update php.ini and add extension=oauth.so This can be done in MAMP under File -> Edit Template -> PHP -> PHP 5.2.17 php.ini
For MAMP 3:
Download and install OAuth.
sudo pecl install oauth
Then, go to MAMP, and click on File > Edit Template > PHP > PHP 5.x.x php.ini and add the following line
extension = oauth.so
Make sure to choose the current running php version (or press CMD+4 to edit MAMP's running php.ini file).
Restart MAMP servers.
Since MAMP 3.0 sources are hard to find but you can download sources from PHP.net, make sure the version match : http://php.net/downloads.php, then follow Ryan instructions.
