I'm currently working to put our project under php7.
When trying to compile the mailparse extension or use pecl to install it, I get this error:
#error The mailparse extension requires the mbstring extension!
I did install the php7.0-mbstring and tried to put the mbstring extension with the mailparse source code. I also tried to use my old C skills and try include the libraries myself without success.
Any of you has an idea how I could solve my problem? (without editing the code like I saw in some forums)
Thanks
You should be able to download the mailparse source, comment out the test for HAVE_MBSTRING
in mailparse.c
(around line 34), and build it normally.
Here's what I did in Ubuntu 16.04 (assume 'sudo' when necessary):
cd /tmp
apt-get install php7.0-dev
pecl download mailparse
tar xvzf mailparse-3.0.2.tgz
cd mailparse-3.0.2
phpize
./configure
sed -i \
's/^\(#error .* the mbstring extension!\)/\/\/\1/' \
mailparse.c
make
make install
Then you just need to enable the mailparse.so
module in your PHP configuration.
For Ubuntu 16.04 and PHP-FPM, you'd use:
echo "extension=mailparse.so" > \
/etc/php/7.0/fpm/conf.d/30-mailparse.ini
service php7.0-fpm reload
