How to enable SOAP on CentOS

问题:

We have VPS with CentOS I have installed soap with following command.

yum install php-soap

Then I went to php.ini to un-comment soap extension. It was not there so, I added my own following line.

extension=soap.so

Then i restart server with following command

service httpd restart

But SOAP is still not enabled. as i get Fatal error: Class 'SoapClient' If i try to install it again. I get following message.

Package php-soap-5.3.3-27.el6_5.x86_64 already installed and latest version

I tried to re-configure PHP with following command as well.

php-config '--disable-fileinfo' '--disable-pdo' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-calendar' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-libxml' '--enable-sockets' '--prefix=/usr/local' '--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--with-curl=/opt/curlssl/' '--with-imap=/opt/php_with_imap_client/' '--with-imap-ssl=/usr' '--with-kerberos' '--with-libdir=lib64' '--with-libxml-dir=/opt/xml2/' '--with-mysql=/usr' '--with-mysql-sock=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' '--with-openssl=/usr' '--with-openssl-dir=/usr' '--with-pcre-regex=/opt/pcre' '--with-pic' '--with-zlib' '--with-zlib-dir=/usr' '--enable-soap'

Any help?

For my point of view, First thing is to install soap into Centos

yum install php-soap

Second, see if the soap package exist or not

yum search php-soap

third, thus you must see some result of soap package you installed, now type a command in your terminal in the root folder for searching the location of soap for specific path

find -name soap.so

fourth, you will see the exact path where its installed/located, simply copy the path and find the php.ini to add the extension path,

usually the path of php.ini file in centos 6 is in

/etc/php.ini

fifth, add a line of code from below into php.ini file

extension='/usr/lib/php/modules/soap.so'

and then save the file and exit.

sixth run apache restart command in Centos. I think there is two command that can restart your apache ( whichever is easier for you )

service httpd restart

OR

apachectl restart

Lastly, check phpinfo() output in browser, you should see SOAP section where SOAP CLIENT, SOAP SERVER etc are listed and shown Enabled.

On CentOS 7, the following works:

yum install php-soap

This will automatically create a soap.ini under /etc/php.d.

The extension itself for me lives in /usr/lib64/php/modules. You can confirm your extension directory by doing:

php -i | grep extension_dir

Once this has been installed, you can simply restart Apache using the new service manager like so:

systemctl restart httpd

Thanks to Matt Browne for the info about /etc/php.d.

2) yum search php-soap

============================ N/S matched: php-soap =============================
php-soap.x86_64 : A module for PHP applications that use the SOAP protocol

3) service httpd restart

To verify run following

4) php -m | grep -i soap

soap

After hours of searching I think my problem was that command yum install php-soap installs the latest version of soap for the latest php version of php.

My php version was 7.027, but latest version was 7.2 so I had to search for the right soap version and finaly found it HERE!

yum install rh-php70-php-soap

Now php -m | grep -i soap works:

outputs: soap !

do not forget to restart httpd service.

yoohooo!
