where is the PHP module? [SOLVED]

ralvez · 2009-09-26 17:41:50

After the latest Arch upgrade I cannot find the php module.
Yes, I did read the posting by Pierre about the new PHP 5.3 where it indicates that the module path has changed to: module path is now /usr/lib/php/modules
That's neat and dandy except there is no mod_php.so there.

I then decided to read in the wiki, perhaps some explanation would be found so I went here: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PHP and tried to follow this setup just to find that in Arch there is no such thing as:lib/apache/mod_fcgid.so

So, the question is: has someone figured out how to make PHP go after this upgrade ... and if so can you enlighten me? I cannot make PHP go.

Thanks.

R.

You did not read the news item.

OK, I am a little mean here: you need to install php-apache.

/usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp5.so

Well ... actually I *did* read the news ... but I made the mistake of assuming that if my configuration had php and mysql both would be added

I read another thread where someone posted a similar problem and realized that I had to get php-apache. PHP is now working but now mysql "is upset".
It may be a configuration thing though because there is no module php-mysql so I'm assuming I need to do some adjustments somewhere in a config file.

p.s: @Nuz, Thanks for posting !! I did knew the directory it was that the PHP library was not there.

OK. I figured MySQL.
Adding the full path to the module in /etc/php/php.ini works.

Thank you all!!

That shouldn't be needed if you set the module_path as suggested in the news item.

moljac024 · 2009-09-27 12:20:51

I needed to add the full path as well, somehow it doesn't work without it.

No, make sure to set this: extension_dir = "/usr/lib/php/modules/"

moljac024 · 2009-09-27 12:57:31

That is set but yet mysql.so can't be loaded without the full path specified

Pierre · 2009-09-27 13:13:41

Hmm, I cannot believe this. Could you try this with the php.ini provided by the package?

moljac024 · 2009-09-27 13:45:13

I am using the php.ini provided by the package
Lol, this just keeps getting better and better doesn't it ?

Pierre · 2009-09-27 13:47:37

OK, could you attach your php.ini then?

moljac024 · 2009-09-27 14:01:59

I didn't change anything from the default one, just uncommented a few extensions:

What's the output of php -m | grep mysql

moljac024 · 2009-09-27 15:23:17

bojan ~ $  php -m | grep mysql
mysql
mysqlnd

Pierre · 2009-09-27 15:24:52

So, mysql is loaded successfully.

moljac024 · 2009-09-27 15:37:43

Hmm....yes, it appears so. Am I going crazy ? Because it was bitching about it at first unless it was a full path...it's working either way now.
