Resolved PHP extension in Plesk 8.3 and 8.2 - ctype and bcmath not together

Plesk version and microupdate number
Plesk Obsidian v18.0.65_build1800241106.13 os_Ubuntu 24.04
Really funny,

For Laravel application I need 2 extensions - ctype and bcmath. one of them is in php 8.3.6 namely ctype, but bcmath is missing and when I try to install it via PECL I get information that it is not allowed to install.

The PHP extension 'bcmath' cannot be installed or uninstalled because it is provided by Plesk out of the box, or uses packages provided by the OS vendor, or uses some other packages. You can only enable or disable the extension.
Click to expand...

But in no one version of PHP 8.3.6 is bcmath, the funny thing is that in version PHP 8.3.13 - 8.2.25 it is everywhere but there is no ctype and it cannot be installed via PECL.

Question - how to install ctype in PHP 8.2.25 if it is not in PECL? or

Thank you for help

Juliusz
 
Hi,
PHP 8.2.25 shipped with Plesk is already compiled with ctype module:
Bash: 
# /opt/plesk/php/8.2/bin/php -m | grep ctype
ctype
you do not have to install it additionally

HI Nikolay,
you are right, sorry, I was too lazy to write phpinfo and upload it to the server. I checked the graphical surface of php settings in plesk and there is no ctype extension there.
sorry again

Yeah, the modules on this list enabled via .ini files located /opt/plesk/php/8.2/etc/php.d/ here and external library file.
ctype module is a part of PHP binary files and is permanently enabled, that is why its not on the list
