Centos 7 - Configure PHP 7 to recognise gmp, imap, mailparse & mcrypt

[EMar]

Hi,

 

I'm attempting a different setup this time, Centos 7 with Webmin/Virtualmin.

The default php version for Webmin/Virtualmin is 5.4.16, although it also includes php 7.0.
I set my main domain / virtual host php 7.0, I have extensions gmp, imap, mailparse and mcrypt installed. 

I had to add the line below to a different location so php7 would recognize Ioncube and Blesta to run:
zend_extension = /usr/lib64/php/modules/ioncube_loader_lin_7.0.so

The above line was added here: /home/site1/etc/php7.0/php.ini

And then
service httpd restart
service php-fpm restart

Then Blesta installer would run, 
I think I'm having similar issues with gmp, imap, mailparse & mcrypt,
Blesta still says these extensions need to be installed, so this has me thinking,
Do I need to configure something in my php 7 setup to recognize these extensions?

On CentOS 7 / Virtualmin, PHP 7 can be installed from different repositories. You just need to install the packages.

Run this: rpm -qa | grep php

Do your php 7 packages start with rh-php70-php? If so, then you'd run:

yum install rh-php70-php-gmp

I don't see packages specifically for imap or mcrypt, so they might be part of something else.. you can run: yum search php70 to get a full list of matching php7 packages you could install.

For mailparse you may be able to install with: pecl install mailparse

.. and you may need to add to php.ini for mailparse.

Cool thanks I got gmp now, 
I also did yum install sclo-php70-php-imap.x86_64

But that's not recognized.

Installed:
  rh-php70-php-gmp.x86_64 0:7.0.10-2.el7

There are 2 different packages for PHP 7.0 available to you.. rh- and sclo-. It sounds like you are running rh-php70 so you should not install packages from sclo-. You may be able to install sclo-php70 packages alongside rh-php70, and select it under PHP Versions in Virtualmin but I have not tried this myself and I don't know if it will create any conflicts.

[EMar]

Yes the rh commands work for me, I got gmp working but nothing for imap, mailparse & mcrypt.
I think the problem is the default php version is 5.4.16 and the virtual host is using php 7.0.

I dunno, if I could remove php 5.4 from webmin and just use php 7.0. 

[EMar]

Will any of these work? or is that a list of what's running?

I can see in /usr/lib64/php/modules there a file for imap.so

Thanks for sharing. I'm quite new to the db platform of redis and eventually getting started. 
Does the configuration done through php redis extension takes some complexity as we installed it in manually?
