PHP如何启用扩展

Question

i already have xampp installed. the version of xampp is:

XAMPP 5.6.12-0

I am working on:

OS X El Capitan, Version 10.11.1

I have php.ini in this path:

/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/etc/php.ini

inside it, there is line:

extension=php_imap.dll

However, that IMAP extension is not loaded, I knew that because I run this command on the terminal:

php -r "print_r(get_loaded_extensions());"

and this is the result I get:

my question

How to install/enable the IMAP extension

I searched online, and I found this question , they said to add the extension=php_imap.dll to my php.ini . However, it is already there.

I continue searching, and I found this question , they said to do apt-get install php5-imap . However, I got the following error on the terminal

apt-get: command not found

Do you know how can I enable/install the IMAP extension?

Thanks

Answer 1

When using OSX uncommenting a .dll extension seems rather odd. Look for this line: extension=imap.so and uncomment, if commented. Afterwards restart your apache . Then you can check by putting a test.php file with the following content to your localhost:

<?php
echo phpinfo();

If you do so and open the site, search the site for imap. It should have something like imap as a headline with
IMAP c-Client Version 2XXX

If you find that entry, the extension should have loaded.
