pecl 在 Apple Silicon (M1) 上安装 mongodb 驱动程序失败

Question

I have php 7.4 installed on my macbook pro m1

% php -v
PHP 7.4.15 (cli) (built: Feb 26 2021 09:28:23) ( NTS )
Copyright (c) The PHP Group
Zend Engine v3.4.0, Copyright (c) Zend Technologies
    with Zend OPcache v7.4.15, Copyright (c), by Zend Technologies

I'm trying to install the mongodb driver running:

sudo pecl install mongodb

But fails after a while:

mp/pear/temp/mongodb/src/contrib/ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -g -O2 -c /private/tmp/pear/temp/mongodb/php_phongo.c  -fno-common -DPIC -o .libs/php_phongo.o

#include "pcre2.h"
         ^~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
make: *** [php_phongo.lo] Error 1
ERROR: `make' failed

I tried with

arch -x86_64 sudo pecl install mongodb

but results in the same error.

Somebody knows how can I solve this please? Or if I can install the mongodb driver without using pecl. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I have finally solved my problem. I followed these steps from https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-php-driver/issues/1159

After installing a newer PHP version where previously I used 7.3.24 and updated to 7.4.16 .

Still had the same issue but diffrent file:

fatal error: 'pcre2.h' file not found #include "pcre2.h"

From this error I tried to check the files in the MacOs Big Sur File system and in the end I found where the pcre2.h is located, and oddly it was being called in the pcre folder, so I manually copied from the pcre2 folder to pcre

The solution that I used:

$cp /opt/homebrew/Cellar/pcre2/10.36/include/pcre2.h /opt/homebrew/Cellar/php\@7.4/7.4.16/include/php/ext/pcre/pcre2.h

Then, I installed mongodb using

$brew install mongodb

After that, I once again tried

$sudo pecl install mongodb

Finally, it worked. However, I'm not sure if this is a good way to solve the problem by manually adding a header file to the directory. (Sorry I'm still new to the MacOs Environment, just bought a mac mini m1 last week for developing my programming skills)

If you were to install php multiple versions from homebrew make sure you are using the current version as you wanted to. You could check the version by using which php .

To switch from 7.4 to 5.6

$brew unlink php@7.4
$brew link php@5.6 --force

I had the same issue with PHP 7.3, I solved it just by running the following commands:

cp /opt/homebrew/Cellar/pcre2/10.38/include/pcre2.h /opt/homebrew/Cellar/php@7.3/7.3.31/include/php/ext/pcre/pcre2.h

Then installed it successfully:

sudo pecl install mongodb

Answer 3

cp /Applications/MAMP/Library/include/pcre2.h /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php8.0.8/include/php/ext/pcre/pcre2.h

then run

sudo pecl install mongodb

I have finally solved my problem. I used PHP 8.1.7 - Mac Pro 2022 - Apple Silicon (M1)

My errors: fatal error: 'pcre2.h' file not found

The solution that I used:

1. brew install pcre2

2. ln -s /opt/homebrew/Cellar/pcre2/10.40/include/pcre2.h /opt/homebrew/Cellar/php/8.1.7/include/php/ext/pcre/pcre2.h 

Please check your path again when use `ln -s` 

3. sudo pecl install mongodb

Hope it help you:) Thanks

If you use MAMP,

Based on @Kelwin Tantono's answer follow instructions to install mongodb then,

Firstly, check for the location of pcre2.h file by

cd /opt/homebrew/Cellar/pcre2/

In this directory find the folder with ls command, in my case it was 10.40.

Change 10.40 value in the below code with the result of ls command.

Then, check your php version with moving to php directory at MAMP by

cd /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/

Change php8.0.8 value in the below code with your desired php version.

cp /opt/homebrew/Cellar/pcre2/10.40/include/pcre2.h /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php8.0.8/include/php/ext/pcre

Now you can install mongodb extension with below command after changing your working directory to

cd /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php8.0.8/bin

sudo pecl install mongodb

Now, you should add extension=mongodb.so to php.ini file with

echo "extension=mongodb.so" > /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php8.0.8/conf/php.ini

Do not forget to change php version.

Answer 6

There is a simpler way to fix the installation issue than symlinking the header file into PHP sources. When running pecl install , you can provide additional compile arguments via the CFLAGS environment variable. So, on the Apple Silicon platform, you can use the following command to get the extension to compile:

CFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/include pecl install mongodb

Note that this is only necessary on Apple Silicon, not on x64. It also works for other extensions that fail because of similar errors (eg apcu)

Answer 7

Thank you very much. I use different Cellar and php version. After I changed, the version and run that command, it worked!
