Question Debian/Ubuntu + Plesk 18 + Laravel 10 + FirebirdSQL

[MSD]

Server operating system version

Debian 12.5

Plesk version and microupdate number

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.59

Hello,

I have a server with Debian 12.5 as the OS and Plesk control panel, and I added one domain with Laravel Tools for Plesk. So, everything works fine when I use a local MariaDB database, but I have a few methods that use FirebirdSQL connections to the database. On my development PC, everything works fine, but on the production server, I get an error: I could not find the driver. PHP is 8.2, FirebirdSQL is 3.0, and the latest PHP 8.2-interbase as PDO for PHP + php.ini has enabled Firebird.

Does anyone try this scenario, or is there any idea what can be wrong?

Thanks to all Plesk experts in advance...

Most likely the PHP handler does not have the required extension.
You can check by running the command

/opt/plesk/php/8.2/bin/php -m | grep firebird

If the list is empty, you need to install it yourself. Unfortunately, there are no instructions for installing Firebird. But you can use this article
