[solved] cant find php simple-xml and dom extensions

Im trying to get magento up and running and not sure where to find the proper packages for this..

Where can i find php extensions:
simple-xml
dom
hash

for the default php installation in arch?

Note, if any of these are already compiled into the installation already, im not seeing them in the extensions list in the default php.ini, and which ever one is NOT compiled in, then i would suspect thats the one thats giving me the magento installation error

PHP Extensions "0" must be loaded.

It could be one of them, or more likely its all of them, since those are the only 3 im not seeing the extensions list that are required for this app.

according to this post, all users are having to hack the core, which im adamant against doing, but if all these extensions are native ill have to do that i guess. http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/v … 84882/P15/

well this post solved it, http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/v … 2/#t398195 not sure if it was just pdo giving problems, but i assume it was just a config file problem, and that the above mentioned extensions dont explicitely need to be enabled in the php.ini, but are instead compiled in.

If somebody could just clarify that it would be great.

That and read the PKGBUILD. You'll see that this is all enabled. They are not set to shared nor are they disabled so these modules are in the core.

If you want to see what your current php configuration supports, simply execute
$ php -r "phpinfo();"
