How to Add an Extension to the php.ini Through a Terminal in Linux

Written by Richi González Sunday, 22 July 2012

Hello,

I’ll show you how to easily add an extension to the php.ini with a simple line in a terminal.

1. Open up a terminal or console.

The code is:

echo "extension=extensionname" >> /path/to/php.ini

2. Change path/to/php.ini to yours, and extensionname to the name of your extension.

That’s it, simply execute and restart httpd. You can do it with: service httpd restart. If you have any question or comment, just let me know and I’ll assist you.

Best Regards,
