For driver developers and people interested in the latest bugfixes, you can compile the driver from the latest source code on » Github. Run the following commands to clone and build the project:
$ git clone https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-php-driver.git $ cd mongo-php-driver $ git submodule sync && git submodule update --init $ phpize $ ./configure $ make all -j 5 $ sudo make install
Bilginize: By default, the driver will use bundled versions of » libbson and » libmongoc and rely on PHP to find OpenSSL (i.e. PHP_SETUP_OPENSSL). If the build process fails to find OpenSSL, check that the OpenSSL development package (e.g. libssl-dev) and » pkg-config are both installed.
The last step will report where mongodb.so has been installed, similar to:
Installing shared extensions: /usr/lib/php/extensions/debug-non-zts-20151012/
Ensure that the extension_dir option in php.ini points to the directory where mongodb.so was installed. You can query the option by running:
$ php -i | grep extension_dir
extension_dir => /usr/lib/php/extensions/debug-non-zts-20151012 =>
/usr/lib/php/extensions/debug-non-zts-20151012
If the directories differ, either change extension_dir in php.ini or manually move mongodb.so to the correct directory.
Add the following line to your php.ini file:
extension=mongodb.so
