Install issues on Ubuntu 14.04

I had phalcon running fine on 12.04, clean install of 14.04 yesterday and have not been able to get phalcon installed. Tried the tips here after normal install instructions didn't work: https://forum.phalcon.io/discussion/1980/phalcon-php-5-5-ubuntu-13-10-issues

Getting the following when running 'make test':

PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/root/cphalcon/build/safe/modules/phalcon.so' - /root/cphalcon/build/safe/modules/phalcon.so: undefined symbol: php_pdo_get_dbh_ce in Unknown on line 0

I've had similar issues while upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04 (with existing phalcon install up and running) here's my log output.

you need to make sure phalcon extension is loaded before pdo extension

I've tried that I think, you mean like having ini's loaded like this:

/etc/php5/apache2/conf.d$ ls 05-opcache.ini 20-json.ini 20-mysql.ini 20-readline.ini 10-pdo.ini 20-mysqli.ini 20-pdo_mysql.ini 30-phalcon.ini



5.5k

That worked, creating 30-phalcon.ini

Thanks!

I've done this and still get the error, do i need to re-install phalcon / recompile?

patrick, check if you have extension=phalcon.so somewhere in php.ini ... if you have it there delete it, prefered way of setting it up is thru ini's

Solved: Thanks for the help digi, it was an apache config issue with sites-available, apparently the new version installed with 14.10 routes local host to just /var/www/html vs /var/www ::facepalm::

good that its solved either way :)
