I have began installing pecl on MAMP. I have added the correct php version to the path and when which php it says /Applications/MAMP/... which is correct.
I have downloaded the Server Components and libraries moved them to a new folder in my php and run the ./configure everything seems to run ok and looked through all the checks being performed while installing and unpacking.
It gets to the last line and says;
configure: error: Please specify the install prefix of iconv with --with-iconv=<DIR>
Where should I set the <DIR> for the iconv?
Just make another folder and point it at that?
I am only trying to get the mongo pecl installed.
The information I have followed is here http://www.lullabot.com/blog/article/installing-php-pear-and-pecl-extensions-mamp-mac-os-x-107-lion
Wait wait wait wait. Why are you rebuilding your PHP installation to install the MongoDB driver?
You don't have to do that.
Just run e.g.:
/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.1.1/bin/pecl install mongo
Assuming thats the full path to the pecl command part of your MAMP installation.
You might need to replace /php7.1.1/ with your current and active MAMP php version.
Working on this right now and found a workaround to just disable iconv with ./configure --without-iconv which not the best solution of course, but works for me.
Edit: Downloaded libiconv-1.14 package, and after running ./configure , make, make install, PHP configure runs fine.
This did it for me:
$ ./configure --with-iconv=/usr/lib/
First needed to install libxml2 and libxslt via homebrew though:
$ brew install libxml2
$ brew install libxslt

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.
Lately, I have been trying to install the pecl memcache PHP extension on OSX Catalina with brew memcached installed and I'm getting the following error every time I try the install process:
configure: error: memcache support requires ZLIB. Use --with-zlib-dir=<DIR> to specify prefix where ZLIB include and library are located
I have tried with pecl install memcache and with pecl install --configureoptions='with-zlib-dir="path"' memcache to no avail. It always gets the same point and it fails.
From what I have reviewed on different topics regarding the installation of the package the issue seems to be with the -D option in the pecl install command, because when I do a manual install from the source code passing the argument --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/zlib/1.2.11 to the ./configure command it works like a charm and installs the package but is now not listed in pecl list installed packages and as so it cannot be uninstalled.
The issue is I need pecl to manage the installation of the package to be able to uninstall it any time when the environment changes from project to protect.
A quick fix for this (found via https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=56522) is to use the PHP_ZLIB_DIR variable instead of --with-zlib-dir.
i.e. PHP_ZLIB_DIR=/usr/local/Cellar/zlib/1.2.11 pecl install memcache
I've struggled with the -D option before as well - near as I can tell it's completely broken.
I changed my default apache server setup on my mac to be able of easily switching between php versions following this guide.
Now, when I return to my project which is based on the CMS TYPO3, I get the error, that "The PHP extension "apcu" must be installed and loaded in order to use the APCu backend.".
So I was following the tutorial (by the same author) to install and enable apcu.
I can sum up the installation process:
$ sphp 5.6
$ brew install autoconf
$ pecl channel-update pecl.php.net
$ pecl install apcu-4.0.11
This actually worked perfectly for php 5.6! But I wanted php 7.2 for my project. The tutorial instructs to do this:
$ sphp 7.2
$ pecl uninstall -r apcu
$ pecl install apcu
No errors here. But the CMS still claims no apcu! Searching for "apc" in phpinfo also returns in no results! Pecl added the extension="apcu.so" line in the loaded php 7.2 ini, so I don't understand what's wrong. Of course I restarted apache every time. Also no errors or warnings here.
Also after googling I have no idea what to do :/
You may try using an absolute path of the apcu.so in php.ini,
Like
extension="/usr/local/Cellar/php/7.3.2/pecl/20180731/apcu.so"
The path depends. Don't know why but this works for me anyway.
You may also need to check the following ini config entry for apcu:
apc.enabled=on
apc.enable_cli=on
I am creating a app and am trying to install a library into my project though composer.
Composer has given me the error:
Problem 1
- The requested PHP extension ext-gmp * is missing from your system. Install or enable PHP's gmp extension.
Ok, it seems like I need to gmp extension.
I am using a Mac, and using a local test server with XAMPP.
Now this is where it starts getting confusing. I went to my XAMPP php.ini and remove the ";" from gmp extension like this:
xampp attempt
I retried composer installation with no luck. My next thought was that the extension needs to be installed on the global PHP Mac installation... I removed the ";" for gmp on that php.ini, but no luck. How can I solve this?
-if you need it for php 5 use
brew install homebrew/php/php55-gmp
-if you need it for php 7 use
brew install homebrew/php/php70-gmp
-and if you don't have homebrew, you can install it using this command
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
OR you can jsut run
brew install php#7.1
since it have all the packages you need for php 7.1
I need to add curl to my PHP, I read multiple articles which recommended just sudo apt-get install php5-curl
But when I try it I get error as below
Error:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
dropbox : Depends: python-gtk2 (>= 2.12) but it is not going to be
installed
php5-curl : Depends: php5-common (= 5.4.45-1~dotdeb+6.1) but
5.4.31-1~dotdeb.0 is to be installed
So I go a bit deeper and try to install it manualy, so I basicly download curl from curl website with: wget http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.36.0.tar.gz
and then just unpack it and just ./configure and sudo make and after that sudo make install
Dispite the fact i didnt get any error It also didnt help.
From error I see that I have older version of my PHP than one in repository but I really have no clue what I can do now.
Is here anyone who can help me?
If you're stuck with that version of PHP, you can build the cURL extension yourself and then activate it with PHP. Normally, cURL is compiled into the PHP binary but you can also run it as a dynamic extension.
When you downloaded, compiled, and installed cURL, this installed the curl program and libraries but has nothing to do with PHP.
You can follow these steps to build a cURL PHP extension for your system:
Go to http://php.net/releases and download the source code for the version of PHP you are currently running
Extract to a temporary location
From the command line, cd to php-5.x.x/ext/curl
Run the following commands:
phpize
./configure --with-curl=/usr/local (/usr/local should be correct, but you can try leaving it blank, or specify the --prefix you used when you installed cURL.
make && make install
After make install runs, it should say something like:
Installing shared extensions: /usr/lib/php5/20121212/
This is where it will place curl.so
Now, edit your php.ini file that PHP uses and add:
extension=curl.so
Restart your webserver &/or PHP, check that cURL is loaded.
Note: If you don't have the phpize (it should have come with PHP) you might need to just build PHP to a temporary location and copy phpize to /usr/bin so you have it.
Hope that helps.
You need to update your PHP version and then install curl.
Do apt-get update to get the latest definitions, then apt-get upgrade to upgrade all packages, then apt-get install php5-curl.
