How to solve the problem of "Pagoda PHP installation failed"

When using the Pagoda panel, sometimes you will encounter the problem of failure to install the PHP module. One possible reason is that the PHP extension cannot be installed on the Windows system. So, how to solve the problem of "Pagoda PHP installation failed" problem?

First of all, you need to understand some basic knowledge. Installing PHP extensions on Windows requires a compiler and some specific libraries, but the Windows version on Pagoda Panel does not come with these libraries precompiled. Therefore, if you are using Windows on Pagoda, you will need to install these libraries manually before installing the PHP module.

The following are some ways to solve the problem of Pagoda PHP installation failure:

1. Install Visual Studio

Compiling PHP extensions on Windows requires the use of the Visual Studio compiler . Therefore, you need to install Visual Studio first. You can download the free version of Visual Studio Community 2017 from the Microsoft official website, and then follow the installation wizard.

2. Download PHP extension source code

The PHP extension on the Pagoda panel is provided in source code. Therefore, you need to first download the PHP extension source code that needs to be installed. It is recommended to download the latest version of the source code package from the official website or GitHub and extract it to the "C:\php\ext" directory.

3. Download Compilation Tools

Compiling PHP extensions on Windows requires the use of some specific tools and libraries. You can download the two toolkits "Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5" and "Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4.0", and then follow the installation wizard.

4. Compile PHP extension

After the above steps are completed, you can start compiling the PHP extension. Open the command prompt, enter the "C:\php\ext" directory, and enter the following command:

phpize

This command will automatically generate the "configure.bat" file. Next, you need to run the "configure.bat" file to configure as follows:

configure.bat --with-php-config="C:\php\php.exe"

This command will generate the required Makefile based on your system configuration. Finally, you can run the following commands to compile and install:

nmake
nmake test
nmake install

5. Configure php.ini file

After completing the installation, you need to add new extended configuration. Open the "C:\php\php.ini" file and add the following lines:

extension=php_extension_name.dll

Among them, "php_extension_name.dll" is the name of the PHP extension you just compiled.

Summary

The above are some methods to solve "Pagoda PHP installation failed" on Windows. It is recommended that you back up your data before installation and read each step carefully during the operation to ensure that your system or data will not be damaged.
