pinacoladaxb Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I need to install an extension for my php site, but since I am using a web hosting service (hostmonster), I do not have access to the directory that contains all the PHP extensions. I DO, however, have access to my php.ini file. How can I install this extension (dbg.so)?

wildteen88 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 If the extension has been compiled then you should be able to add extension=php_extension_name.so Within your php.ini However you're may be better off asking your webhost if is possible for this extension to added.

corbin Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I believe you can use absolute paths, by the way, so your extension shouldn't need to reside in the same directory as the others. extension=/path/to/directory/extension.so Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/162526-how-to-install-a-php-extension/#findComment-858233 Share on other sites More sharing options...
