在Ubuntu Server 12.04上编译libvirt-php时出错

Question

i am trying to setup libvirt-php in my ubuntu server to do some test with the PHP API. I am following this procedure:

sudo apt-get install libvirt-dev xsltproc libxml2-dev libxml2  
cd ~ 
git clone git://libvirt.org/libvirt-php.git libvirt-php  
cd libvirt-php  
sudo sh autogen.sh  
sudo ./configure  
sudo make  
sudo make install  
sudo service apache2 restart

i also installed php5-dev and xmllint package for ubuntu, but when i go to the 7 line: make i get these errors:

make  all-recursive

Answer 1

The require version wrote in git://libvirt.org/libvirt-php seems incorrect

It shows LIBVIRT_REQUIRED=0.6.2 , but in version 0.9.8 which Ubuntu 12.04 using, variable virDomainGetMetadata and VIR_DOMAIN_VCPU_GUEST are not defined, which led to this error.

(If you want query what you libvirt-dev version is, type $ dpkg-query -s libvirt-dev )

You can try this:

1. Upgrade your Ubuntu

   Latest version of Ubuntu supports new libvirt-dev that have variable virDomainGetMetadata

   https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt

2. Use libvirt-php 0.4.8

   I use this to solve the problem, but another problem arises out that it does not support libvirt_domain_get_metadata .

   The following steps show how to use libvirt-php 0.4.8:

   Visit http://libvirt.org/php/downloads.html

    $wget http://libvirt.org/sources/php/libvirt-php-0.4.8.tar.gz $tar -xvf libvirt-php-0.4.8.tar.gz $cd libvirt-php-0.4.8 $./configure $make 

   Check there are not another problem then

    $sudo make install $sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
