Why a PHP module is not loaded into PHP?

  • 772

Showing my case how to debug the problem, that a PHP module is not loaded into PHP.

I use OpenSUSE v42.2 Linux OS, with Apache webserver, PHP v7.1, Mysql.

Because it does not provide PHP v7.1 I need, I built PHP v7.1 from source. Using PHP-FPM.

I installed it into

/opt/php-7.1/

php.ini is in:

/opt/php-7.1/lib/php.ini

I find, that opcache is installed to

/opt/php-7.1/lib64/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20160303/opcache.so

I edited php.ini and added the following line:

zend_extension=/opt/php-7.1/lib64/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20160303/opcache.so

Restarted:

systemctl restart php-7.1-fpm.service
systemctl restart apache2.service

But still I get the following result:

php -m

The opcache is missing from [Zend Modules].

But in configure there is '--enable-opcache':

php -i | grep -i opcache

Configure Command => './configure' '--prefix=/opt/php-7.1' '--with-pdo-pgsql' '--with-zlib-dir' '--with-freetype-dir' '--enable-mbstring' '--with-libxml-dir=/usr' '--enable-soap' '--enable-intl' '--enable-calendar' '--with-curl' '--with-mcrypt' '--with-gd' '--with-pgsql' '--disable-rpath' '--enable-inline-optimization' '--with-bz2' '--with-zlib' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm' '--enable-pcntl' '--enable-mbregex' '--enable-exif' '--enable-bcmath' '--with-mhash' '--enable-zip' '--with-pcre-regex' '--with-pdo-mysql' '--with-mysqli' '--with-mysql-sock=/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock' '--with-xpm-dir=/usr' '--with-webp-dir=/usr' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-png-dir=/usr' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--with-openssl' '--with-fpm-user=wwwrun' '--with-fpm-group=www' '--with-libdir=lib64' '--enable-ftp' '--with-imap' '--with-imap-ssl' '--with-kerberos' '--with-gettext' '--with-xmlrpc' '--with-xsl' '--enable-opcache' '--enable-fpm'

I also tried to specify as:

zend_extension=opcache

but I got the same result, opcache still missing.

How to fix to have opcache enabled?

php opensuse php-fpm php7 opcache

  1. You should be specifying the module name, e.g.:

    zend_extension=opcache
    • 0

  2. In my case the affected module was the opcache PHP module.

    Solution:

    I noticed, that within phpinfo the "display_errors" Local value was OFF, Master value was ON. Because Master value comes from php.ini, and in /opt/php-7.1/lib/php.ini had "display_errors = Off", it means this php.ini is not loaded.

    Also found, that the "Loaded Configuration File" field value is empty, so it also shows php.ini is not loaded.

    But the php.ini is located (and should have been loaded from): /opt/php-7.1/lib/php.ini.

    Furthermore I noticed, that within phpinfo the "Configuration File (php.ini) Path" is set to: "/opt/php-7.1/lib64" So it means the php.ini should be located at /opt/php-7.1/lib64/ directory.

    Step1 fix:

    copy php.ini 
from 
/opt/php-7.1/lib/php.ini
to
/opt/php-7.1/lib64/php.ini

    In command line:

    cp -p /opt/php-7.1/lib/php.ini /opt/php-7.1/lib64/php.ini

    Also noticed, that php was compiled with '--with-libdir=lib64' argument.

    This will likely mean, that "opcache.so" file should be found under this directory.

    Currently "opcache.so" is located in directory: "/opt/php-7.1/lib64/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20160303/". I supposed placing the "opcache.so" to "/opt/php-7.1/lib64/extensions/" would be enough. That became the final fix.

    Step2 fix:

    copy opcache.a & opcache.so
from 
/opt/php-7.1/lib64/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20160303/
to
/opt/php-7.1/lib64/extensions/

    In command line:

    cp -p /opt/php-7.1/lib64/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20160303/opcache.* /opt/php-7.1/lib64/extensions/

    Step3 fix:

    Restart Apache & PHP-FPM (optionally, if used):

    service apache2 restart
service php-7.1-fpm restart

    After doing these 3 fix steps, the PHP opcache module is loaded successfully.

    Result:

    php -m
