Install redis in Php 8.0.11 (Compiled, not OS packages)

[rockchuck]

I am struggling with installing redis module in php 8.0.11 with litespeed enterprise version.

Steps I did:

Compiled PHP - works
Download phpredis, extracted tgz

/usr/local/lsws/lsphp8/bin/phpize
./configure  --with-php-config=/usr/local/lsws/lsphp8/bin/php-config
make
make install

Then i saw the module in the path:

ls  /usr/local/lsws/lsphp8/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20200930/
igbinary.so  opcache.so  redis.so

I added extension to php.ini

extension="redis.so"

Restart lshttpd and ran a phpinfo() and still no redis loaded..

Am I missing something?

I manually downloaded pecl and installed it too and it build redis the same but it wouldn't load when built that way.

Is there an option to add it to compile time when building php? --with-redis doesn't seem to do squat

Do you have a control panel? Both cPanel or Cyberpanel can make it easier, at least for the daemon.
But if php extension is installed with LiteSpeed compiler, it is indeed more complicated.
Maybe their tutorial can help more.

It's a physical server running Ubuntu and I'm using PHP 8 that is compiled. No control panel in my way

your complie and install looks ok to me. https://www.litespeedtech.com/support/wiki/doku.php/litespeed_wiki:php:pecl-extension
you can login a ticket with server login, we can check for you.

So, I noticed if i run php -i from the shell, it loads the correct php.ini and I see redis module loaded - but for some reason, when running lsphp from litespeed, its showing no php.ini is loaded and i've restarted, i've set the PHPRC to the path - it looks like it should be looking at the right section as it says this:

Configuration File (php.ini) Path/usr/local/lsws/lsphp8/lib
Loaded Configuration File(none)
Scan this dir for additional .ini files(none)
Additional .ini files parsed(none)

Any tips on how to get the litespeed process to load right php.ini that does exist in the config path?
