Adding php extension to to pfsense?

periko

Hi, if this questions goes into other category please move it didn't know the right one.

I had a simple question, I need a specific php-extension which I already build under a freebsd box for my arch.

Now I'm trying to understand how can I add this extenstion to pfsense->php?

Running pfsense 2.2.2 i386, thanks!!!

Maybe a guideline : https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=46928.msg247850#msg247850

Is not working, on that case they are adding a package, I build the extension only.
same php 5.5.x from a freebsd 10.1 box.

What I have done but still not loading.

copy the mysqli.so to /usr/local/lib/php/2012../

change rights
chmod 555 mysqli.so

touch /etc/php_dynamicmodules/mysqli

run /etc/rc.php_ini_setup

no warnings like they show, I'm not running pkg add command.

Latter I add the module into rc.php_ini_setup:

PHPMODULES="$PHPMODULES mysqli"

run again:

[]quote
/etc/rc.php_ini_setup

no warnings.

but not loading, don't see any error or warning.

???

I had check the file info, don't know if this helps:

[2.2.2-RELEASE][root@–-]/usr/local/lib/php/20121212: file mysqli.so
mysqli.so: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), dynamically linked, not stripped

[2.2.2-RELEASE][root@–]/usr/local/lib/php/20121212: file mysql.so
mysql.so: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), dynamically linked, stripped

I had this error:

mysqli did not load correctly. Removing from php.ini…
mysqli did not load correctly. Removing from php.ini...

Now, I have to see why is rejecting the module.

I just add mysql-client-5.1 running pkg_add.

I understand it that /usr/local/lib/php/20121212/mysql.so is already present and you want the add mysqli support.

I don't no enough about PHP, but could it be possible that PHP itself (PHP Version 5.5.23) should be recompiled before it accepts including mysqli ?

I just managed to activate the mysql support (mysql, not mysqli).

Building and extension myself: never tried.

MySQL can enable is there, but I need MySQLi, I'm trying to see what else I need, maybe some libraries but not much debug info I have, if some else have something to add I will appreciated.
Thanks Gertjan.
