I have installed mongodb on a new Ubuntu 18.04 server. I can access and work with the database through the command line, but cannot access it via PHP, and was wondering how other people have gotten it to work.
Following a new build of Ubuntu 18.04, and installation of LAMP, I ran:
sudo apt install mongodb-server php-pear php7.2-dev
sudo pecl install mongodb
I then added the mongodb.so extension to the php.ini file, and a phpinfo(); page shows mongodb as installed. So far so good.
If I browse to a test php page ($mongo=new Mongo();), the page fails to load though.
Through web searches, I find the https://github.com/alcaeus/mongo-php-adapter page come up a lot, and I have run the composer installation command there, but to no avail.
Installed versions are: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS; mongoDBv3.6.3; php 7.2.17; Apache 2.4.29
I was wondering what steps other people who have gotten PHP to work successfully with Mongodb have followed? I plan to scrap this server and start from a fresh VM install again.
I was able to install php-mongodb after adding the ppa repository ondrej/php:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install php-mongodb
try:
sudo apt-get install php-mongodb
worked for me
It appears that you're attempting to use the Mongo class from the legacy driver, but you're using the non-legacy driver so that class doesn't exist. Please look at the documentation for the updated version of the driver here. You might also consider using the MongoDB PHP Library to abstract away many of the driver calls.
Please note that there are also compatibility considerations between your versions of the PHP library, MongoDB, and the MongoDB PHP driver. You can find the compatibility information for them here.

sorry if there is a duplicate question for this but I'm trying to set this up for hours now and it just doesn't work.
I have a Debian 11 server with "KeyHelp" installed on it (little brother of plesk). It comes with PHP 7.4 but provides a simple Dashboard where you can install other PHP versions. I installed PHP 8.1 and tried to install the mongodb extension via PECL.
After "pecl install mongodb" I added "extension=mongodb.so" and after that didn't show up the extension on the phpinfo page, I double checked if the extension is really in the extension folder of php, where it was.
Turns out that I installed the extension for PHP 7.4 and not for PHP 8.1. Finally I tried to force PECL to install it for PHP 8.1 but it says "phpize8.1 command not found". I found no way to install phpize8.1, can somebody help me out with that?
Thanks in advance!
I am using Ubuntu 20.04
I have PHP 8.1 version. You have to install modules of PHP
sudo apt install php8.1-mongodb
List the modules
php -m
It's not exactly Debian. I hope it helps you.
If you run command:
sudo apt install php-dev
System will install automatically the correct version of php{x}-dev for your distribution, and all it's dependencies, included PECL.
another way is try to run:
/usr/bin/phpize
If this command works, you need to add phpize to your PATH:
PATH=$PATH\:/usr/bin; export PATH
In this way phpize will work in future.
I am running an Ubuntu 12.04 Apache2/PHP/MYSQL server that was using a deprecated version of PHP. I realized this once I tried to install the sqlite3 extension I get an error:
Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/ondrej/php5-5.6/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/source/Sources
Research shows me that this is no longer used and instead use ondrej/php instead. This is a production server and I need to figure out steps to replace the PPA with the correct one.
Will I need to uninstall PHP and reinstall using the new packages? If so how should I go about doing this cleanly?
Is there a way to temporarily install sqlite3 without having to change repositories completely (I do not have php-dev installed at the moment either).
First you should check if there are any compatibility issues with the version you want to upgrade to (did a quick google to find this: https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer). Then, add the repository that contains the version you want, sudo apt-get update and install the version of php you want. To switch the version apache uses, do the following:
sudo a2dismod php5
sudo a2enmod php5.6
sudo service apache2 restart
I have a server which has PHP5 installed. I need pthreads and found that link to install php5 with pthreads:
PHP5 installation with pthreads
I install all the packages I need with apt-get install. I have no idea about what a make file is, how to compile a source code etc. I am a web developer with limited OS knowledge.
I have followed the steps given in the link above. At the last command on step 4, I get an error because /opt/php-zts/modules.d/ does not exist.
I simply wanted to replace existing php with a new php installation that supports pthreads. Now, the server code does not work.
How can I install PHP5 with pthreads enabled so that it will replace existing PHP5 installation that I installed with sudo apt-get install php5 libapache2-mod-php5?
Also, I have another question. I need some other packages like php-curl. Can I install them with sudo apt-get install php-curl after I succesfully install PHP? Do these commands work with custom builds?
Edit: how-to-install-pthread-in-ubuntu-12-10 This is not a solution for my problem because I don't want an isolated installation. I want the installation to replace already existing php installation.
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.
I had PHP 5.2 with MongoDB installed on Debian Lenny x64 and everything was fine.
After updating PHP to 5.3 (dotdeb) I can't get MongoDB to work, I always get an error
Fatal error: Class 'Mongo' not found (...)
Everything else works fine, all default modules are working.
My php.ini:
extension_dir = "/usr/lib/php5/20090626"
extension=mongo.so
Mongo.so is in same location as written above.
But when I run php -m in console to check loaded modules, "mongo" isn't listed there.
I can't use dl('mongo.so') to load module at runtime, because this function was deprecated in PHP 5.3.
May be I should recompile mongo somehow, I just don't know how to do that because I'm not very good in *nix commands.
Thanks for your help!
UPDATE
Also may be it's worth saying that before my mongo.so was in /usr/lib/php5/20060613 and I manually copied it to "/usr/lib/php5/20090626" because it seems that after updating my PHP all modules are located there.
The extension module api has changed between php5.2 and php5.3. When php tries to load an extension module both sides have to "present" an api magic key that identifies the api version. If those numbers don't match the module is not loaded/activated.
Try sudo pecl install mongo again to get an extension module that fits your new php version.
Try re installing mongo & restart service
sudo pecl uninstall mongo
sudo pecl install mongo
sudo service apache2 restart
This will install mongo in to newer version
I spent a little time trying to fix this, I am guessing you had a previous mongo install. The way I fixed it was by:
I installed php5-dev:
sudo apt-get install php5-dev
cd /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/
sudo rm -rf mongo.ini
I then viewed my php.ini and removed extension=mongo.so
Then:
sudo pecl uninstall mongo
sudo pecl install mongo
sudo service apache2 restart
