[solved] php-soap-extension installation problem

Hey,
I'm trying to get soap extension in php working. The problem is that there is no package like php-soap in Arch's repositories. Does anyone know how to install that extension?

Thanks in advance,
Unknow

PS I'm really sorry for my broken English..

The extension you want is already included in the 'php' package.

To get it working, uncomment the 'extension=soap.so' line in /etc/php/php.ini.

Hey,
thanks for the answer. I already uncommented that line but it was still not working, because there was no soap.so module in /usr/lib/php/modules, so I was getting:

Fatal error:  Class 'SoapClient' not found [..] 

To get it working I took a rpm-package (this one) and copied the missing soap.so module. Now it seems to work.

Greets,

Sure there is:

$ pkgfile -v soap.so
extra/php (5.3.6-4) : /usr/lib/php/modules/soap.so
