Issue PHP extension problem for multiple PHP versions

[John S.]

I cannot add PHP extensions for any version higher than 5.4. This is the problem I am experiencing, step-by-step:

1. Switch to PHP 5.5.38 in Domain->PHP Settings
2. Add a few installed extensions to the 'Additional configuration directives ' on PHP settings page, e.g.

extension=stats.so
extension=trader.so
expose_php = Off
extension=apc.so​

3. Save it, then reconfigure the domain, restart httpd and nginx.
4. These added extensions appear in php.ini in

/var/www/vhosts/system/mydomaincom/etc​

5. But nothing works, these extensions are not shown in phpinfo() and not enabled.
6. I also tried adding these directive directly to master php.ini in

/opt/plesk/php/5.5/etc​

--- the same issue, it doesn't work. I tried both FPM and FastCGI

The same scenario works perfectly find for PHP 5.4.

Pls help.

Thanks!

PHP extensions should be enabled in Tools&Settings>PHP Settings>PHPxx

PHP extensions should be enabled in Tools&Settings>PHP Settings>PHPxx

I don't see any extensions I installed via pecl in Tools&Settings>PHP Settings>PHPxx[

I installed them directly via ssh. They are shown on php command line (#php -m) and can be enabled for PHP 5.4.45. For all other higher versions it doesn't work.

I also tried to add:

extension_dir=/usr/lib64/php/modules

but it also doesn't enable these extensions

Here a lot of instructions how to compile different php modules for different Plesk php versions, try to find them and compare with your method. For example Resolved - memcache 3.0.8 for PHP 5.6 on Ubuntu 16.04

Thanks - I am trying to it as you suggested and this is the output:

No any problem with trader installation for me with

# yum install gcc make plesk-php55-devel
# /opt/plesk/php/5.5/bin/pecl install trader
# echo "extension=trader.so" > /opt/plesk/php/5.5/etc/php.d/trader.ini
# /usr/local/psa/bin/php_handler --reread

And check finally:

# /opt/plesk/php/5.5/bin/php -m | grep trader
trader

 

[IgorG]

With the same method:

# /opt/plesk/php/5.5/bin/php -m | grep stats
stats

This did the trick!

pear config-set temp_dir /root/tmp

I have managed to install all extensions except APC. It returns the following error at the end, after a long cmpile code:

#/opt/plesk/php/5.5/bin/pecl install apc

Any suggestions how to fix it?

Maybe this thread will be useful for you How to install an APC with Plesk

BTW, PHP 5.5 has built-in opcode optimizer OPcache making APC obsolete.
According to APC changelogs, PHP up to only 5.4 is supported.
