Build complete. Don't forget to run 'make test'. 9. cp fileinfo.so /usr/lib64/php/modules/ (In my case this is path using locate php/modules. In i386 it might be /usr/lib/php/modules) 10. cd / 11. rm -rf temp (Delete the temp folder you created or leave it if you use or use it later) 12. locate php.in (Find the main php.ini usually in /etc/php.ini or if using vhots, you might want to manually edit them all. 13. nano /etc/php.ini 14. Add the following lines: ;Manually compiled extensions extension=intl.so extension=fileinfo.so 15. service httpd restart (Restart apache) 16. php -v (Just to check if there are any errors) 17. All done You can use roundcube mails installer configuration check usually "$roundcubeinstalldir/installer/index.php?_step=1 to verify if the components are working. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-07-12 03:15:26] au at gala dot mx root@abc-money:/usr/bin# pecl install Fileinfo WARNING: "pear/Fileinfo" is deprecated in favor of "channel://php-src/ext/fileinfo/in php sources" downloading Fileinfo-1.0.4.tgz ...
