Can't install Phalcon on my VPS (phpize not found), willing to pay to someone for it.

Hi, after trying to install Phalcon on my new CentOS 6.4 VPS with no luck, I'm willing to pay someone with the experience to do it.

I think Phalcon is a really good choice for my new project but I'm having problems to get it installed in my server and I do not want to use others like CI or Laravel.

I have the next error when trying to install the extension:

./install: line 64: phpize: command not found

Dunno what to do, so any help is appreciated

Thanks.

I have some experience with this issue, since I am currently hosting a small thing over on OpenShift. Not completely sure why, but things don't always get installed in the same place on different hosts. OpenShift beening one of them. In my case, what I did was ssh into your server and run :

find . -name phpize

Write down the path to phpize that is found, then you will have to open the phalcon installer (install, found in cphalcon/build) with vim or nano and edit the paths to phpize to reflect what you found from the query above.

For example, on OpenShift, I had to change my section of the installer, where it calls 'phpize' to look like the following:

#Check processor architecture
if [ -z $1 ]; then
    DIR="${OPENSHIFT_REPO_DIR}/cphalcon/build/32bits"
    gcc gccarch.c -o gccarch
    if [ -f gccarch ]; then
        P64BITS=`./gccarch`
        if [ "$P64BITS" == "1" ]; then
            DIR="${OPENSHIFT_REPO_DIR}/cphalcon/build/64bits"
        fi
    fi
else
    DIR=$1
fi

#Move to specified architecture
cd $DIR

#Clean current compilation
if [ -f Makefile ]; then
    make clean
    $OPENSHIFT_RUNTIME_DIR/php5/bin/phpize --clean
fi

#Perform the compilation
$OPENSHIFT_RUNTIME_DIR/php5/bin/phpize && ./configure --enable-phalcon --with-php-config=$OPENSHIFT_RUNTIME_DIR/php5/bin/php-config && make && make install && echo -e "\nThanks for compiling Phalcon!\nBuild succeed: Please restart your web server to complete the installation"

Hope this steers you in the write direction. PaaS services are great, but be perparded to get to know your server.

Hi, thanks for the info, I added the paths to the install file which are:

/usr/local/bin/phpize /usr/local/bin/php-config

Respectively, but now I receive a LOT errors more, after searching I found that I need php-devel to install it and my VPS is using cPanel and I found some information that is not easy to install extensions when using cPanel, maybe I'll not be able to use Phalcon in this configuration which is really bad.

Here is what I get:

Hi,

"error: ext/pdo/php_pdo_driver.h: No such file or directory"

Check this error. Googling: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61859 https://github.com/phalcon/cphalcon/issues/1155 ;-)

edited Apr '14

Thank you very much! I was able to install Phalcon on my VPS!

The problem was with the PDO headers, so I installed them using EasyApache, recompiling Apache + PHP but including the PDO + MySQL PDO extension as described here https://github.com/phalcon/cphalcon/issues/1155 and https://forums.cpanel.net/f5/enable-pdo-78853.html

I also had to edit the install file and add the --with-php-config=PATH-TO-PHP-CONFIG and also add the path to phpize

So thanks both @le51 and @Phillip Jackson !

Now I'm able to use this great framework :D

Greetings!
