Can't use PHP extension Solr in Ubuntu 13.10 (Apache)

  • 772

After I upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10, the local development version of my website stopped working with a PHP warning:

include(SolrQuery.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

I checked the pecl solr extension is installed:

> sudo pecl install solr
pecl/solr is already installed and is the same as the released version 1.0.2

I checked the Solr Apache extension is set up:

> cat /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/solr.ini
extension=solr.so

Any idea where the problem could be?

The command php -m doesn't seem to show solr.

apache2

    The fix was to uninstall and then reinstall the solr pecl extension:

    sudo pecl uninstall solr
sudo pecl install -n solr
sudo service apache2 restart

    Before uninstalling, I noticed the solr.so was in the wrong place (/usr/lib/php5/20100525/solr.so). After uninstalling and reinstalling, it is in /usr/lib/php5/20121212/solr.so which is found by Apache, etc.
