PECL Adding gearman to php extension - php

Hi i'm really having a hard time here,
I'm trying to install gearman job/task queue. I'm using windows, wappstack to be exact, then followed exactly the instructions here, and so far so good. I think I've installed the gearman server.
But I can't seem to find how to actually install PECL extension for gearman. I mean I can't find any .dlls to add to the PHP ext folder. and the PECL Package here just makes me all the more clueless. I can't invoke Gearman classes, and when I use phpinfo(); , gearman extension is just not present. I'm absolutely clueless on this.
How do I add and properly set up gearman extension to my PHP? Please and Thank you!

To you install a extensions of PECL you need use the cmd.
Open the cmd.
Go to directory where is the PHP program.
Find for "pecl.exe"
Install gearman extension.
Like:
$ cd C:/BitNami/wappstack-[version]/php/
$ pecl install gearman
Now, looking for the "php_gearman.dll" in the extension directory.
And add extension to php.ini

ssh2 ssh2_connect() function not found

So I have a class that I build that uses the ssh2 package in php. I have successfully set this up and used and tested this class on apache2 server. The server at work where this is going to be running is an instance of litespeed. I have scoured the web for a way to get ssh2 working with this litespeed server however I cannot for the life of me figure it out. I get ssh2_connect() function not found. If I go go /etc/php/... I can see that the ssh2.ini file exists. However I believe the active php instance is located /usr/local/lsws/lsphp74/7.4/etc/php/ where I do not see the ss2.ini located. Is there a way to get ssh2 installed in the directory that is being used by the server? If I run ssh2_connect at the command prompt, it works just fine as it is most likely using the /etc/php instance of php.
You're correct, ssh2_connect() is provided by a pecl extension. These are optional binary add-ons for php. I'd make a quick phpinfo(); page and add it to the litespeed server so you can see what modules are active and where the config files php is using are actually located on disk.
The install guide can walk you through installing this pecl extension.
https://www.php.net/manual/en/ssh2.requirements.php
Another way to accomplish this is with a pure-php library that doesn't depend on special plug-ins. phpseclib fully implements the ssh protocol in pure php, taking advantage of libraries if they are present but it's able to function without them.
since you didn't mention what exactly is your server env
I would assume it's either OpenLiteSpeed image , or CyberPanel image
first of all , compile libssh2
wget https://libssh2.org/download/libssh2-1.10.0.tar.gz
tar vxzf libssh2-1.10.0.tar.gz
cd libssh2-1.10.0
./configure
make
make install
then compile the PHP extension
mkdir /usr/local/lsws/lsphp74/tmp
pecl channel-update pecl.php.net
/usr/local/lsws/lsphp74/bin/pear config-set temp_dir "/usr/local/lsws/lsphp74/tmp"
/usr/local/lsws/lsphp74/bin/pecl install https://pecl.php.net/get/ssh2-1.3.1.tgz
echo "extension=ssh2.so" > /usr/local/lsws/lsphp74/etc/php/7.4/mods-available/50-ssh2.ini
and finally , restart lsphp process to load new module
touch /usr/local/lsws/admin/tmp/.lsphp_restart.txt
or
killall lsphp
then verify by phpinfo(); to make sure you see ssh2 loaded

install latest gearman on windows

i know it is a repeated question but did not find answer to my problem. I am trying to install gearman on windows using this link. I am stuck where it asks to ./configure gearman. In the latest versions of gearman, there is no configure file so this tutorial is not of use anymore. Solution i got after quite some research that i need to run phpize to create its configure file. And now i can not run phpize command on my system. it says command not found. Please help me if i can get this extension dll file or any other way i can run this.
Thanks

How to install mcrypt on OS X's natively installed PHP?

I am trying to install the mcrypt PHP extension on my OS X Mountain Lion 10.8 operating system. This OS comes shipped with Apache and PHP already installed. The mcrypt extension however does not come shipped with PHP. I want to install mcrypt into the version of PHP that came shipped with my machine.
I do not want to use Homebrew, Macports, or any similar package manager, and I do not want to install another version of PHP in addition to the one I already have. I just want to plug mcrypt into the PHP that came bunded with my OS. I feel like this makes sense, instead of having multiple versions of the same program installed, yet every tutorial I come across seems to all immediately say to use Homebrew/Macports, and the few that don't teach you how to install a new PHP instead of using the one I already have.
I started following the directions laid out on this page: http://www.coolestguyplanettech.com/how-to-install-mcrypt-for-php-on-mac-osx-lion-10-7-development-server/.
I downloaded libmcrypt-2.5.8.tar.gz from Sourceforge.
I extracted the contents with the following command: tar -zxvf libmcrypt-2.5.8.tar.gz.
I entered the libmcrypt-2.5.8 directory that was created and issued the following commands: ./configure, make, and sudo make install.
Now that tutorial says to go into a directory that was created by a new, non-native version of PHP that the tutorial tells you to install, not the native version that came shipped with OS X. The tutorial says to go into the following directory: cd ../php-5.3.13/ext/mcrypt/ (which is a directory I don't have), and run the phpize command. I can't go into that directory because I'm using the native PHP that came with OS X, so instead I go into the libmcrypt-2.5.8 directory, but when I try to run the phpize command I get an error that says: Cannot find config.m4. Make sure that you run '/usr/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the module. I do however have the files acinclude.m4 and aclocal.m4 in this directory. I am not sure if they are related to the config.m4 that phpize is looking for.
I am not sure how to proceed. Maybe I should just cut my losses and install another PHP using Macports or Homebrew, but I'd really prefer to use the native PHP that came bundled with OS X. Can you help me figure out how to do this? It would really help me a lot, and help me understand better how PHP and extensions work. Thank you!

The PHP that came bundled with OSX isn't any more "Native" than any other version that you would install.
You don't have that directory because, IIRC, OSX doesn't ship with PHP source, just a compiled binary and apache module.
You can only run phpize on a php extension, which you can get in the PHP source download (including the mcrypt extension). What you downloaded is the C library (which you may also need to install) that the PHP extension will reference (you don't need to worry about how this happens).
If you want to just install that extension:
Download it
Extract and cd into
sudo phpize
sudo ./configure && sudo make && sudo make install
Add extension=mcrypt.so (or whatever is generated) to your php config / php.ini and restart apache
This sounds to me like a good opportunity to learn more about how your computer works. This is some documentation I wrote for myself a few years ago on how to do this:
http://www.calvinfroedge.com/common-php-compile-configuration-options/ (note that the formatting in the blog might not work if you paste it into terminal, for example –with-mysql should be --with-mysql)
Besides, you don't need to get rid of your PHP installation that came with OSX. You can download the PHP source to a brand new directory, compile it, backup the old binary, and either symlink the result of 'which php' to your new installation or add the binaries that get generated after you compile to your source.

Configuring PHP for pthreads

I am trying to install pthreads for PHP, which is here.
In PHP manual of extention it says:
To enable pthreads support, configure PHP with --enable-maintainer-zts
and --enable-pthreads.
I have a CentOS server which has PHP installed but I cant figure out how to reconfigure it with these settings on, I checked my phpinfo() can see current ./configure options.
I will happy if someone can show me how to reconfigure my php. Do I need to uninstall current PHP first then install another or is there any way to run this ./configure command easily. I have SSH access to my server.
You could try install using PECL:
http://pecl.php.net/package/pthreads.
How to install PECL extensions:
http://php.net/manual/en/install.pecl.php
pecl install pthreads
I've written a tutorial about exactly this - Compile PHP with pthreads and ZTS enabled.
You must compile PHP as there are no prebuilt packages.
To reconfigure everything you'd use ./configure mainly.
if centos does not provide a thread safe version, you must compile php by own.
You have to build pthreads for your centos op system. After that you can use it as extension...
Use the following tutorials
http://blog.slowbro.org/2013/08/compiling-php-55-with-pthreads-on-centos/
http://eddmann.com/posts/compiling-php-5-5-with-zts-and-pthreads-support/
Or simply read the manual...

Using PECL to install extensions on Windows 7

I've been trying to install some PECL extensions on my laptop, but I've ran into a few problems. Whenever I run pecl install whatever from the command line I get a message saying ".\php.exe appears to have a suffix .exe, but config variable php". It seems like PECL is using PEAR to perform installations. I checked and php_suffix is located in the files PEAR_Config.php and PEAR_Builder.php, but I'm not sure what to do with it in there.
Any ideas on how to fix this or workarounds? Unfortunately the pecl4win seems to be down, and http://downloads.php.net/pierre/ the site I usually go to for the .dll's has outdated versions for the version of PHP I'm using (5.3.1).
Unfortunately I don't know the specifics, but at least I can point you in the right direction To use pecl on windows, you need to setup Visual Studio c/c++ or MingW32 c/c++ and then configure pecl to use either compiler for building the requested extensions.
Unlike pear packages, pecl packages are PHP c extensions that needed to be compiled against your local PHP install.
Update
https://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/stepbystepbuild A mostly friendly wiki page on setting up a windows box for building PHP from source. Looks like you need to build the interpreter and support libraries before you can get pecl working.
