[Solved] libssh2

[GOT]

I downloaded and compiled the ssh2 extension from pecl. It compiled fine and I have an ssh2.so. I added it to the php.ini, but its not showing up in phpinfo(). Any ideas?

please refer:
http://www.litespeedtech.com/support/wiki/doku.php?id=litespeed_wiki:php:opcode_cache

to build ssh2.so for lsapi

 

[GOT]

Thanks for that. But the link is for php opcode cache, not ssh2...

 

[NiteWave]

yes, that's opcode cache. but the build way is same.

 

[GOT]

I did try this:

./configure --with-php-config=/php5install/php5/bin/php-config

however, that just gets me a

./configure: line 2950: /php5install/php5/bin/php-config: No such file or directory
./configure: line 2951: /php5install/php5/bin/php-config: No such file or directory
configure: error: Cannot find php-config. Please use --with-php-config=PATH

 

[GOT]

This configures

./configure --with-php-config=/usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/bin/php-config

however, there are no changes to my configuration when i do that.

I reinstalled the file, however, its teh same thing, nothing in phpinfo.

 

[GOT]

Any ideas?

add line 'extension=ssh2.so' to your php.ini and restart lsws.

 

[GOT]

Yes, we have had that since the start. Both just the ssh2.so and with the absolute path to the file. No go either way.

 

[webizen]

does ssh2.so exist on the absolute path or the path to extension_dir?

 

[GOT]

It does, yes, which is why i am so perplexed.

 

[webizen]

is the loaded php.ini (result of below) the same one in use?

/usr/local/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp5 -i | grep "Configuration File"

 

[GOT]

Its using the right php.ini. I'm not sure what ./ folder represents with this php implementation, however, Using teh cli php, I am seeing this error:

PHP Warning: PHP Startup: ssh2: Unable to initialize module

 

[webizen]

... I'm not sure what ./ folder represents with this php implementation, ...

Can you elaborate this? What "./" folder are you referring to? extension_dir?

 

[GOT]

Correct, extension_dir is set to ./ which is current folder. I don't know what php would consider the current folder.

But in any case, when its referenced directly, it gives the error in my last message.

 

[webizen]

"extension_dir = ./" means the current directory of referring file (php.ini). you can change to 'extension_dir=/path/to/directory/holds/the/so/files' AND use 'extension=ssh2.so' instead of 'extension=/full/path/to/ssh2.so'.

the warning message you posted indicates that ssh2.so is likely not for the running php binary. before you rebuild the so file, make sure to run 'make clean' to clean up old files. also make sure /usr/local/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp5 matches with /usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/bin/lsphp (php is the cli version).

 

[GOT]

OK, well, I am totally confused now. Not even sure what you mean by match. Here is some output

[webizen]

it is likely you compiled ssh2.so with phpize for a different php version before and you did not cleaned the old compiled files. hence so file was still for old php version.

do this

1. cd ssh2-0.11.2
2. make clean
3. /usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/bin/phpize
4. ./configure --with-php-config=/usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/bin/php-config
5. make
6. make install
7. service lsws restart

That did it. Eternal thanks!
