Question Install Excimer PHP extension

jasperNL

New Pleskian
Server operating system version
Ubuntu 22.04
Plesk version and microupdate number
18.0.62 Update #2
Hi, Is it possible to install the PHP extension Excimer,
As this extension is not shown under the plesk installer

I need this extension to be able to do some PHP profiling using Sentry (They require this php extension to be installed/enabled)
 
Hello, jasperNL. You can install the Excimer package and respectively extension from your Plesk Administrative Dashboard > Tools & Services > PHP Settings. From the list there you need to select the respective PHP Handler. Then click on the "Manage PECL Packages" button. Once there, you can use the search field and enter "excimer". You will then be presented with the package in question and you can proceed with the installation and enable the extension. Please note that this process requires admin access to your Plesk dashboard.
 
Hi, thanks for the reply, I did that but the extension does not seem to show up under the installed extensions (The pecl page shows it's installed) to be able to enable it.
 
Hello, jasperNL. Could you please load the modules by running the following command:

/opt/plesk/php/PHPVersion/bin/php -m - Where you need to replace PHPVersion with the version you installed the Excimer package for. For example, /opt/plesk/php/8.3/bin/php -m
