soap not visible in info.php

[GobindSingh]

Hello Linux experts,

I have a dedicated server on which php is installed from source code.
There was a requirement to enable soap on php.
i have recompiled the source code using the following command:
# ./configure --enable-soap
# make
# make test
# make install

Its was successfully installed.
then i have checked the module installed on it using following command :
# php -m
[PHP Modules]
bcmath
bz2
ctype
date
dom
ffmpeg
filter
ftp
gd
hash
iconv
imagick
ionCube Loader
json
libxml
magickwand
mbstring
pcre
PDO
pdo_sqlite
posix
Reflection
session
SimpleXML
soap
sockets
SPL
SQLite
standard
tokenizer
xml
xmlreader
xmlwriter
Zend Optimizer
zip
zlib


here its showing that soap module is installed.

then i have checked the php.ini file :

extension="/usr/lib/php/modules/soap.so"

above variable was present there.

# ll /usr/lib/php/modules/soap.so

its also present there.

however soap is not visible in phpino.php /info.php file

I have restarted the apache server to check the changes in phpinfo.php file. but soap still not present there.

my developer is saying that soap functionality not working


Have added following lines in php.ini file :
[soap]
; Enables or disables WSDL caching feature.
soap.wsdl_cache_enabled=1
; Sets the directory name where SOAP extension will put cache files.
soap.wsdl_cache_dir="/tmp"
; (time to live) Sets the number of second while cached file will be used
; instead of original one.
soap.wsdl_cache_ttl=86400


restart the apache .
Still not worthy. Please someone help me !!!!!!!!

Chances are you are still using the older (default) php since you didn't change the default prefix when you ran the configure script. The default puts the components in /usr/local (/usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc) instead of /usr. So, either change your PATH environment, or uninstall the package, rerun the configure script with the --prefix=/usr option, and rebuild/install.

Hello Rubberman;

Thank you . for the reply that you have made. Really appreciate your suggestion.
However i have tried to recompile the php using following command :

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-libgcc --with-bz2 --enable-mbstring --with-gd --enable-bcmath --enable-ftp --enable-gd-native-ttf --enable-libxml --enable-sockets --with-gd --with-ttf --with-zlib --enable-soap

make
make test
make install

after this it has given me a warning msg:
Warning! a PEAR user config file already exists from a previous PEAR installation at '/root/.pearrc'. You may probably want to remove it.
Wrote PEAR system config file at: /usr/local/etc/pear.conf
You may want to add: /usr/local/lib/php to your php.ini include_path

so i took backup of this file and run that command again

#make install

Wrote PEAR system config file at: /usr/local/etc/pear.conf
You may want to add: /usr/local/lib/php to your php.ini include_path

i couldn't understand the last line "You may want to add: /usr/local/lib/php to your php.ini include_path"

Wt to do about this ?

and then restarted the apache.

again soap entry is not there in phpinfo.php file


One thing more interesting i found that when i run the following command:

# php -i |grep soap

Configure Command => './configure' '--prefix=/usr/local' '--enable-libgcc' '--with-bz2' '--enable-mbstring' '--with-gd' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--enable-libxml' '--enable-sockets' '--with-gd' '--with-ttf' '--with-zlib' '--enable-soap'
extension_dir => /usr/lib/php/modules/soap.so => /usr/lib/php/modules/soap.so
soap
soap.wsdl_cache => 1 => 1
soap.wsdl_cache_dir => /tmp => /tmp
soap.wsdl_cache_enabled => 1 => 1
soap.wsdl_cache_limit => 5 => 5
soap.wsdl_cache_ttl => 86400 => 86400


however if i check the phpinfo.php on browser then it shows:

http://remotehost/phpinfo.php


Configure Command => './configure' '--disable-pdo' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-calendar' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--enable-libxml' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--enable-sockets' '--prefix=/usr/local' '--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--with-curl=/opt/curlssl/' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr' '--with-gd' '--with-imap=/opt/php_with_imap_client/' '--with-imap-ssl=/usr' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-kerberos' '--with-libxml-dir=/opt/xml2/' '--with-mcrypt=/opt/libmcrypt/' '--with-mysql=/usr' '--with-mysql-sock=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' '--with-openssl=/usr' '--with-openssl-dir=/usr' '--with-pcre-regex=/opt/pcre' '--with-png-dir=/usr' '--with-ttf' '--with-xpm-dir=/usr' '--with-zlib' '--with-zlib-dir=/usr'

Dont know from where its picking the above info

however path to php.ini is same.


Is apache/apache conf file have something to do with this?

Please help me Linux Guru...
